He had a nice run at the meadowlands when Dave Miller and Tetrick were awol. Nothing more than a filler at Yonkers and will be interesting to see if he comes back to M1 with the purse increase.

will do well at Pocono and chester in few weeks,, good driver

You are so wrong !

You obviously never met him....he is NOT like his father

He gives an honest drive every time

The above posters are correct.........h e is  very competitive when..when Miller, Tetrick ,and Yannick are taking weeks off

Jim Marohn Jr can drive with the best of them. He just don't get the quality of horses the others do.

Many of his drives are no try-head scratchers.

I can't speak for Yonkers or the fn, but as far as freehold and outside posts, looks for traffic sometimes then comes late..guessing game even when he's bet. And still drives circles around those guys..I like him...but somes drives are head scratchers..

I like him too as a driver. 2 years ago was killing it at Pocono and M1 thought stakes drives would follow now, at Freehold and buried at Yonkers.

Jim is a good driver & does well when he has stock. It is a trainer's game. Drivers with bad horses rarely step them up these days.

Jimmy has driven for me since he started. The thing I liked about his driving from the beginning was his patience. He always was able to sit in and won races that he wouldn't have if he pulled early. If he's got the best he will drive aggressively otherwise he will save the horse.

He lit up the board twice last night sitting and waiting, then got the money . Tough almost impossible to win from the back at Yonkers. The kid has more than adequate hands .
