im in favor of 125 per drive .as long as casino tracks pump up the purses
How about the trainers that actually ship to the track with their horses and have to sit there for 4 hours for Lasix that has virtually no effect by the time they go to the gate ? Couldn’t even at least buy us lunch?
Good Idear, Cannabis
There is no limit to horsemen wanting handouts and this thread is a perfect example. Give me free money in a performance base industry. Also, we will now be giving shitty drivers participation ribbons!
Do you tip your server when you have bad service? We sure do we leave $2 bucks. Same here boys
That is the same as a winning drive in a 5k race. 8 drives a night would secure a minimum of 1k and that is ridiculous. What percentage of people in this country make a thousand a day at their job? Sorry, but driving a harness horse in a circle, for someone not very good at it, deserves nowhere near 1k a day and that 25 dollars per drive should get an annual 5 percent raise like the rest of the world.
There are still tracks that don’t even give you $25 for finishing out of the top 5. If a driver has a bad night with shitty post positions and long shots he could earn next to nothing!
Nobody can live on 25 a drive It’s 2023 not 1973Jmho Compensate the drivers I think racing can become cleaner
ITS TIME SALARY GETS KICKED TO 100 BUCKS IF HORSE DOES NOT FINISH IN TOP 5JMHO
