Title: Gural's driver loyalty rule?
Post by: helpplease on April 21, 2018, 10:36:35 AM
If I recall correctly, Gural made it clear to the BigM regular driving colony that if you drove at Yonkers on Friday & or Saturday night when no stake races were carded you would be persona non grata at the BigM. With that in mind I'm curious what will happen with Scotty Z & Timmy T since both raced last night at Yonkers with no stake races carded.

The difference is WHO gural wants or likes. He picks and chooses who to enforce his edicts upon.

If I remember correctly, Gural barred both Sears & Brennan & until they came back on their knees & confessed their sins they did not drive. I can't remember Taylor having any say in the matter? Gural may have private property rights?

Doesn’t seem that Sears was on his knees.  What Jeff forgets is money is what makes the world go around.  Just because Jeff investment didn’t go as he planned isn’t anyone’s fault except his own.  The drivers have to make a living and unless they have some sort of infraction than it is total BS he is trying to pull.  You don’t see Jeff’s horses only racing at his tracks why because Jeff wants to race for higher purses so why can’t drivers.  Jeff’s problem is he wants everyone to accommodate him and when they don’t he tries makes these stupid rules.  Jeff needs drivers more than the drivers need Jeff.

   Best of luck with that. Gural bars Allard, Rucker, and others, but employs Burke, and Miller.    Maybe Gural  should star another GoFundMe page.

LOL, you gotta relax. I'm no Gural fan, far from it. All I'm saying is Gural makes his own rules & if someone doesn't like those rules, that is their problem, not Gural's. Gural is a bully & a hypocrite imo but he has the power & loves using it. Gural couldn't care less if Sears ever stepped foot on any of Gural's tracks ever again but Sears does care. If Sears didn't care he would have told Gural to go f himself but Sears didn't do that. That's all.

If Gural allows B Miller, Tetrick or Zeron to race in his stakes, its another case of him saying 1 thing and doing another.

Gotta disagree with you on this. Gural did say to his local drivers (whoever they are) that if you want to drive in the big races in the summer at the BigM you would be expected to drive at the BigM & not Yonkers on Friday & Saturday nights unless there were stakes at Yonkers that the BigM locals were involved in.

As for Timmy T & Scotty Z racing at the BigM this week after breaking Gural's rule a week ago, I'm guessing they tried to call Gural's bluff & Gural reraised. Why else would either driver go back to racing at the BigM this past Friday & Saturday going for less than half the money they could have raced for at Yonkers. There were no major stakes at the BigM to keep either driver there so I'm guessing Gural made a call to both & reminded both of his rule & gave them both a one time pass.

If either race on a non stake Friday or Saturday at Yonkers in the future I will concede I was wrong but until then I'm going to stick to my theory. jmho

PS: Gural did ban both Brennan & Sears at one point in the past as I'm guessing you know. Sears was even pulled off the bike at the BigM for a qualifier one morning because of the ban. Bother Sears & Brennan had to kiss & make up with the Dictator before they got their driving privileges back.

Looks like all the boys ( drivers ) are back for the Sat. card at the Big M !!!!!! ngc3 ngc3

Yes and the BigM regulars were back at the BigM last Friday & Saturday even though no stakes were carded. And more interesting is that both Timmy T & Scotty Z who had been racing at Yonkers on Friday are back at the BigM this Friday with only 9 races carded & around 1/3 the purse money that Yonkers is offering the same night. This seems to confirm my theory that Gural put his foot down.

That is simply not true. He laid down the ground rules prior to this meet and several drivers have not followed them this spring. He was very clear; dont follow rules and drivers are banned from stakes

That's what I heard also. I actually heard those that Gural considers as BigM regulars that raced at Yonkers on Friday or Saturday nights when no stake races were carded would be barred from the BigM period.

Timmy has never driven at Yonkers full time only when stake races were there.  The reason they are at Meadowlands now is because the 3 years old are starting to come out

Yes I agree that Timmy has never driven at Yonkers full time & I have never said he has but you are wrong to say he only drives at Yonkers when there are stake races. Look at the results from Yonkers for April 20th. On that night both Timmy & Scotty drove at Yonkers with no stakes races on the card. That is the night that pissed off the Dictator & both drivers were reminded of the Dictators rule. The Dictator forgave both with a stern warning that it will not happen again.
