Post by: wizardofoz on November 27, 2024, 12:10:04 AM
He has live drives on 5 of these races.

When I first looked at the entries I thought Six and if you think about it all Eight are live.  Perhaps Captain Optimistic and Nelsonbriteagle are at the bottom of the list but they are good and have chances too.  The others will probably be the favorites. He's currently listed on both Luna Lovegood and Champagne Problems so he's live either way in that one.

Take his privates out of your mouth. When you drive the favorite in 7-8 stakes races and when you go to front and nobody parks you and you control race you should win. Believe me he’s no superstar. Anyone that drives the favorite all night should win 5 a night and when you have help out there it doesn’t take much talent.

So, you're a private person! Whether you like Dexter Dunn or not is your business, but to not call him a superstar shows how little knowledge you have. You get to drive 7 or 8 favorites in stakes races for a reason, because you're the best! You're not handed those drives, you earn them! Owners and trainers want you to drive their horses! Open your eyes, he's the best around.

100% right

devaux / beckwith - saratoga
mike / greg merton - monticello
bartlett - yonkers
ranger / beckwith - plainridge
dave miller / dexter - meadowlands
g nap / kakaley - pocono

it’s like every track . you drive the favorites in almost every race you don’t even need to be lucky or good . things just fall into place for you

Agreeing with him doesn't make you smart or right! The reason they get to drive those horses is because they're good, if they weren't, somebody else would be driving them.

Thats right and they don't fly the elite drivers around just for fun.

ofcourse they’re good and have tons of talent . but like stated driving 1/9 shots and pointing them to the lead and rating them just a touch makes it 3/4 of the battle to win the race

When you're the top driver like he is, your horses are typically over bet and some of his horses are false favorites. Same thing happened when John Campbell was in his prime.

He didn't always get those drives until he proved he's the best.   tmbz1

How do you get to drive all the favorites?  You think he just demands everyone let him go to the front?  You don't think other drivers want that 5% just as bad?  He has gotten into a groove and now he can bully people around a bit but the guy has crazy talent and is the most personable guy out there.  Everyone loves Dex.  He will be a force for the next 10yrs.  He will run through the next 10yrs like Campbell ran from 85-95!

Yannick has one more live drive than I do on Saturday.  Still makes a ton of money every year...but won't make much this weekend.

The final total was 5 after all for Dexter and Tetrick had to settle for 2 winners on lower conditioned horses as he is a no-show now in the big stakes races!

Tetrick has no horsepower in the big races anymore, his only drives are with longshots other drivers chose off of.

I agree Tetrick didn’t just wake up and forget how to drive.  He needs to change his business model.  He clearly isn’t doing something correct with trainers and owners.

His achievements speak for themselves. No one is even close to him today.

When your only drives in the big races are mostly with longshots with little or no chance, it's difficult to be aggressive with them.

He may have lost it some but he's still a top 10 driver whether you think so or not. Whether Todd's horse should have been DQ'd or not, what we think doesn't matter because the judges make the call. Tetrick's purse earnings are 9th in the country and ahead of Andrew McCarthy who drives much better horses than him.

I understand he has 600 less drives but he also drives alot better horses than Tim. I'm not a Tetrick lover, just don't think he's as bad as you think he is. You act like he's totally incompetent because you don't like him.

Other than Dexter #1 and Todd #2, I'm not going to rate the other drivers because everyone has their own personal preference. If anyone on your list has the horse, he's more than capable of winning. I agree than James McDonald and Roy are #1 and #2 in Canada. Not interested in the Meadows and Ohio drivers. Bartlett is obviously the best at Yonkers.

Several decades ago when I was attending a one room country school my arithmetic teacher would say
"Young man you take this back to your desk and recheck your numbers".
Jupiter I respectfully suggest you do the same.
