Brent on his way to another outstanding night at YR. first 7 races / 3 drives...one 4th....
-
Patience my friend. Mr Holland just won the last race at YR at 12-1. My man strikes again!
-
See, I helped him. 73cv.2
Can't stand guys who drive like him. I watch him and I know exactly what he is up to.
-
I think you have him pegged. Just wait for the price and some help from his friends. But in between cups of coffee, can he drive like he knows he's breathing?
-
Tuesday - another outstanding evening for that winning money earner Brent Holland. Nearly crashing into a tired leader ( Bartlett ) swerving into the infield, throwing a boot and finishing 7th from the rail in the 8th race was a sight to behold!
-
He's good on Paul Stafford horses
-
Ah, the Tommy Ceraso arsenal

Good evening Brent Holland fans, enthusiasts and apologists! Making any money? Another outstanding return to dead driving after mild signs of life last night. Sort of
He is often off the gate at the start I am noticing more and more. Drove one trotter right off a cover trip chance into a blindswitch. Anvil handed right now. sources tell me he never had live hands. is this true?
-
Graced us with one 3rd and one 4th. Glued to the rail virtually every step of every race he drove. Can't wait for tomorrow night....
-
You Holland deniers have no creativity. If you know he is the king of coming in 3rd or 4th start keying him to do this in the trifectas and superfectas. For a dime you can play him every which way and have some fun with him. You may come to appreciate him when you collect on a few.

Theo, my friend, he STINKS to high heaven. He is ripping every one off. getting the worst horse most races because he is the worst driver most races. It is cyclical. Most races he is in a different dimension than the rest of the field.

Brent’s win percentage of 12% Yonkers is similar to Marohn, Siegelman, Stratton and Lachance. He can be overly aggressive at times but that makes for more pace meltdowns, a rare occurrence at Yonkers.

last night Brent enjoyed a bit of success, while Kakaley, Bongiorno and Yannick were not there. So insted of his usually getting the 6th and the call horses. he got 3rd 4th or 5th. you know the cycle - drive bad, get bad horses, lose with them and you look bad, get more bad horses. If I rtecall he won 4 races, maybe 5 with a DQ. last week. 2 were with Ervin Miller favorites, another was a trotter who had a good sized lead and barely held on.
His win percentage of 11.25 means he is winning 1 out of 9. Not good on a gate that holds 8. often there are 6 and 7 horse fields at YR as you must know.
Auastin Siegelman is better and at least he tries hard. Patrick is a very weak stretch driver. In fact, one of the worst I have ever seen at a major half mile track. I would say at best Holland is equal to Marohn Jr
All of the YR regulars out perform him. Sure he is in the top 10. That's because there are only 10 regulars there. People tell me about his 3 million earned. At these purses, that is no big deal at all. Bring Jimmy Taggart into YR and he would do the exact same thing.
Someone said Brent's heart isn't in it. I don't know if that's true, but each night I see a "suck-along" who either doesn't care or is gambling or something.
Btw, not trying to sound mean, but did he lose a family member or something? Every time he does win, he kisses his fist, pounds his chest then raises his arm to the sky looking upward, in the winner's circle. If this is in tribute to someone he cared about and lost, then I respect that.
-
I don’t dispute he’s not a second tier driver at Yonkers. And man, he has the most brain dead drives than anyone at YR the past few years. But I have no issue betting him at a price when I think he’s leaving the gate. He doesn’t exactly get that many live drives, I mean after Bartlett, Brennan, Kakaley and Jordan, the rest of the colony gets the scraps.
-
And I left out Bongiorno from the list.
-
What exactly do you want him to do, drive bold with crap. Then you'd be saying he's a idiot for driving that way. He drives mostly race fillers, he doesn't get any power, how's he gonna drive different. He's just trying to make a living.

That is called thanking god for allowing him to make a living doing what he does best
-
Perfectly stated and like my friend Theo if you are catching him at a price, i congratulate you. I accept the fact that it is the only winning formula for him.

You mean like every fucking baseball player that gets a seeing eye single, then stops at first, makes the sign of the cross and gives thanks to God? Ok fine. I would wait for the big moments but i respect his reverence.

No, I do not expect him to drive stupid without power. He should go where can win. I still think he cheats too. Sorry

Its just a gang sign to his brothers

1W, 3Pl, 2Sh, 1-4th Wed night at YR. Also broke with a fav and up the track with a long shot. $28,530 in purses. $1,426 for Mr. Holland and his family. Not a bad Wednesday night.

Good post, and oh, by the way, they pay money to the first five finishers.

Are you speaking of Joe Bongiorno?

Holland, 3rd race tonight, cha-ching. Sends and scores, much the best.
