Gingras

After stealing the 4th race by keeping Takter's horse locked in he said he almost messed up. He wanted to give the horse blocked a chance to get 2nd, and he almost beat him. Why is he worried about the horse in the pocket? Could it be that he drives for Takter? That is such a bad look.

Wouldn't want fancy Nancy cutting him off

Gingras kept the rail closed off, and it wasn't until the 5 backed up, the 2 got out and just missed winning.  Perfect drive.

Was there a post race interview he said it, where, because the 8 min video of the replay didn't contain it?

It'd be great if they were micd up out there.  Mohawk did it with selected races you can watch on youtube and stopped lot's of crazy shit being said before during and after the race.

Here's one of them:

Yes he said it in the paddock when interviewed by Edison Hatter. Gingras waited to open up because he knew it would give Takter's horse the room. It was a great drive no doubt, but he did say that, which is not good.

Good work.  I just emailed Jeff Gural this (below), stay tuned:

Hello Mr. Gural,

13 years later, glad we're all here!

Nice work with the Big M, congratulations.

After the 4th race tonight, 4/21/23, did Yannick Gingras have a conversation with Mr. Edison Hatter in the paddock, in which he said (paraphrase) he almost messed up - regarding he wanted to give the horse blocked in the stretch (the 2, Fonseca / Takter) a chance to get 2nd? 

I didn't see the interview, it was told to me, but if true, controversial at the least.  Can you please advise me?

Thank you,

Paul

BEST DRIVER IN NORTH AMERICA YR IN AND YR OUT

No doubt, agree.  Last race at BigM 12th, 10 horse from last, just missed.

You give that dude a horse that is ready, while he does make decisions (do or die) on the fly, he follows through.  He's tactical, chess like brain.  Balanced and smart in the bike.

On 4/10 with This Is The Plan, he made that last second decision to not leave, horse complied despite wanting to zing from outside, next week (5th start off lay off) w2w from same outside spot.  Now he's in the Borgata final with other racing luck.

You can't be serious. Dunn is in another time zone and drives circles around Yannick every day of the week and twice on Sundays. You would actually take Yannick over Dexter with hundreds of thousands on the line

I Like Dexter Dunn, very talented too but...

This is a winter sampling of M1 overnights..... the game is about purse earnings on a yearly basis where the real money is May through October.

Last three years total purses earned Dunn 39.3 million Gingras 33.0 million. As I said Dunn is on another planet and has now won the Dan Patch Driver of the Year three straight years. Everybody wants Dunn to drive for them when the money is down, Burke wants Gingras when the money is down.

Dunn has had a very average year so far. Many races he shows no interest at all. That will change when he gets all the loaded stakes horses though.
