....but I wanted to think about it before I started spouting off about it.

I think Pletcher and Repole got out trained and out gunned by a much better horse in Justify. Even if Baffert did send that horse out there to block for Justify it is a tactic that is as old as the sport itself. Everyone should have known that it was possible and should have had a Plan B. Javier is not to blame.
