if aaron lost the rhoades account he would end up like grismore. he would still get drives for a while but there wont be 7 win nights. drivers need power.
Grismore sucks plain and simple. When you can’t win with Burke horses and lose the account that says something.
Wrenn is night and day and afternoon and evening and dusk ahead of Merriman. Winning is one thing, being excellent at a craft is another. Aaron is no Ronnie.
Aaron did just fine before Rhoades. He will be fine with out him
with the exception of brett miller( especiailly back when he was fucking crazy) no one better than ronnie. i think brett is the best driver in ohio. maybe he has gotten a lil older and he has a lil more fear now a days but man back in the day he had no fear he could drive the fur off one. when he got on one he hasnt been driving from someone else it was a 3 to 4 second driver change.
Even I could win with Beckwith mounts If he didn’t win with one of his 1to9 shots something would be wrong but most of his mounts he has trouble pulling up after race
merriman would yea still be ok. but would he win dash titles? doubtful. he would definitley take a hit in wins and money. brett was fun to hang out with. when you drive with no fear drivers seem to do better. with that said he had POWER. john lee power. then virgil. he had a lot of horse power but he still drove fearless. maybe because it was snowing all year round in ohio i dont know. i cant confirm nor deny.
Turnpike I agree with you. People that can't see that never been around horses.
aaron drives for a number of people at the meadows. the only people he is 100% loyal to is the bercurys. i know they only have a few horses but he will never choose off a bercury horse.rhoades at northfieldwhy does ronnie wrenn not drive everyday? i see many days where he is not present. i think if he did what aaron does he would be leading dash winner. aaron is very personable. people tend to really like him. its a PR game. you have to have some talent obviously.
Beckwith tried The Meadowlands this winter. Weren't really a factor drives his father's horses. Hard to believe there are running on oats water.
