HANOVER grooms saw Joe's antics. Many saw his actions. Ask around you will find out the kid has no respect or love for horses.
JB just does not understand. A good pace clock in the head good strategy putting them in the right spots and a good set of hands make a good driver. Pump them to the gills with whatever your papa mixes up and blasting to the front and slashing home does not make you a driver.To the paper lioness who thinks she is a trainer. Do you think Gural made the move without looking at the betting logs? I can assure you they saw irregular betting patterns. Gural. Just ban them and get it over with. Throw the Allards in as well. set the tone, push out the message. Participating at the BigM is a privilege.
Spot on. Drivers are tired of his antics. He's a danger to everyone out there. If the hubrail was still up there would be a pileup every night that goofy kid raced. He has no control. Hes like the 16 year old out driving daddys mustang.
Are you proud of the worst mistake you made on the track? Child please.
No, I'm not. But I was always respectful of the other drivers and the horses. Unlike this cowboy, with his loose lines and shuckin and jivin, leaving a trail of destruction in his wake
Many a time we have pulled up and turned, while mentioning to whoever, that it was "my bad". This kid just IS bad. We know when we fuck up and say so. This kid? NO, he has his sister speak for him instead. .
The sister thing is trifling, yes. But how you explain Burke using him on a 2 yo trotter Make A Miss in a $500k race .. the Valley Victory? How you explain Alagna using him on Barbossa in the Jug or on Art History in the BCrown ? Those guys missing what you see? Or they just lucky?
History has shown that you don't have to be talented. or smart to be a successful harness driver. Luc Oulette was a leading driver at the Big M when driving loaded up Chansky horses. Mike Oosting was a non factor until he came to Chicago and drove Rucker's loaded up horses. Where would Yannick (the French Fraud) Gingras be without Burke? All it takes to be a successful harness driver is driving for the right chemist, go to the front, and scream WHHEEEEEEEE! Sincerely, Silent One
