Why would you want Gingras on colt trotter?

[theokodjak26]

perhaps,
but what does that have to with his driving ability

Exactly. This guy must sit around jerking off all day while making crap up that no one agrees with or cares about. Yannick is one of the driving stars in harness racing. He worked very hard to get where he is. He has succeeded on all racing surfaces in Canada and the USA. I am not aware of any serious infractions in all the years I have watched him. Yet here we have some jealous moron saying awful things about Gingras and Mr Sanchez has probably never spoken to him. Horseplop would be so much better if we didn’t have to read the lies and hate that people like Sanchez brings.

[Miguel_Sanchez]

I'm not the only one on here that thinks he is no talent.  He's horrible on a two yr old and he's completely interchangeable with anyone that can hold lines for Burke and Takter.  Burke could replace him with ANY driver and get the same or better results.  Doesn't take talent to be a cowboy and send them.

Absolute nonsense

Absolute nonsense

That's your defense?  How many BC does YG have?  Better yet how many does he have for non Burke or Takter horse?  Of all those how any did he NOT send the horse?  When Burke puts Ronnie Wrenn up on his good stock you will see these horses explode.

I don't understand why wins from off the pace mean more than wins from on the front end. Gamblers want horses in play. In today's game, you have to involved in the race. Trainers don't out him down expecting him to take back and hope for solid fractions, do they?

At Yonkers in 2024 so far. Yannick win percentage with Burke horses 20.5% 42/204. Yannick with all other YR trainers 20.6% 79/383. This is against the best driving colony in the USA. What the hell is your point? Have you been losing money betting against Yannick. Is that your problem? Yannick is in second place in total earnings in the USA so far. His UDRS is .356 which is #1 in the USA amount all the top drivers. Mr. Sanchez you are not helping yourself, with many in the know people on Plop, with your constant negative comments about one of the best drivers in the industry. I am done responding to you and your negative, inaccurate comments.

You are contributing and using FACTS to support your position? Hmmmm, there's a new one for this place. It's so extremely rare, people will not know what to say, do, etc. As they say, don't let FACTS get in the way of BS, nonsense, and stupidity. Thank you for posting FACTS! Don't worry, someone will say it's too small a sample, it is distorted because of the time of year, etc. Thanks again!

Yanni is a top driver. I would rather have D. Miller, Dunn, Tetrick, or Zeron on a young trotter.
Gringras also drives for Engblom at Yonkers.

He looked fine on Karl today.

[Miguel_Sanchez]

Worst possible prep.  Horse is not learning anything being on front all the time.  He will not win being on front every week.

[Harness racer]

I agree it's not great overall...but you can't put him in a strangle hold behind much lesser competition in that qualifier.

[Bitter Truth]

Didn't see it, but don't see how he would have been under much more of a hold then he must have been in 58.0 half.
Hard to argue with 54.1 back half though. Could be YG's year to break thru in Hambo with Jimmy on board. 

[Harness racer]

KARL is an absolute monster!  Horse of the Year this year if he stays healthy!

Burke apparently said TCI was not at his best at end of year.

TCI will still lose by 3 or 4 lengths. Just a guess but Karl will go 49 in an absolute jog. be it at Big M or more likely Lexington. 48 and change maybe

Not sure what his bottom would be if pushed.  But 48 and change is a definite possibility!
