At Monti
Greg and Mike Merton work together and Bruce Aldrich and Jimmy DeVaux are a team.
Of course, blood is thicker than water

Back in the old days at Foxboro and Rockingham  Bruce Ranger and John Marshall      Mark lancaster called the shots often and worked with just about everyone    John Hogan and Sreve O'toole

Art Bier , Rick Plano, Mel Terrcoto , Charlie Brown & Pasty Rapone at Northfield Park in the late 79’s and early 80’s.
That was so bad they all got asked to leave.

There was one driver that actually worked with all of them and really ran YR/RR

From my time there starting very late 70s until he was kicked out by YR, sued and lost, Rejean Daigneault ran the show and had multiple puppet barns as well as his own. Jocelyn Tremblay stable and Gerry Sarama stable are just two examples.

Two more Rejean puppet barns - Jim McCardle and John Lare and of coutrse, Rejean had a powerful stable of his own at that point    I remember the drivers in the "circle" were looking to take $30,000 per night out of the windows.

I have heard there was a guy named Bobby Tetreault who was heavily involved in race fixing and had guys like Jacque dupuis in his pocket   Not sure where you are going with this
