Does anyone know why Geo Nap is rarely, if ever, used by trainers in big races? He has basically owned the drivers titles at Pocono for many years. Today Pocono had many stakes type racing and he was not on one horse. He was in two overnight races at the end of the day and won them both. He also does well at Harrahs Philly and seems to in demand for overnight type races.

Are u serious?? Guy is fine for claimers n stuff like that but for a young horse he is not...go ahead and get yourself a young stakes caliber horse and put him on...I'm 100% positive he will be available to drive it for u!!! Hope ur happy when comes back after the race and all u have left is the horses tail n hopefully leaves u with a 4 claimer after he cooks it!!

Absolutely accurate! Guy will win 13 or 14 thousand races and never see the HOF!

What do u mean he won't see the hall of fame?? He has to drive right by it when he ends up driving at Monticello!!

Georgy NAP...wired.

U can rest assured u will get 1 of 3 types of drives from this clown...
#1 leave a hundred in 26.3 or better,slow 2nd quarter,gas up the backside n hopefully have enuff to hold off any late charges
#2 Leave gate between 25.2 n 26.3 get put away 3rd,quarter move to front,all done at top of strecth
#3 At least 3 lengths of gate when the man says GO,gapped at back of field no chance trip,then a healthy vet bill from Dr. Mitchell when he has to realign ur horse neck and spine after this asshat tried to bend ur horse in half taking it off gate..
Once in a while u may get a 1st up trip or 1 of my favorites,2nd over then 3 wide to nowhere while cover still goin forward thru last turn absolutely no shot from there!! Can't make up any ground at that spot...

Well,that's just about anything anyone would want to know on this subject! May as well cap it and close it. If you need any more information why go elsewhere. ngc3 ngc3

When we watched him earlier in his career, "Georgie Nap" was always pretty rough on horses. In the early 90's we raced 4 cheap claimers at Pompano, but never put him down to drive one. Our go to guys were Charlie Giamanco, Billy Palmer, and Joe Pavia Jr. As the years passed, George has done well away from the now defunct Pomano Park. But he still seems pretty rough on the horses!
-
Georgie likes the rough stuff. Just ask LANCE ngc3

Charlie Giamanco and Billy Palmer? OOOOOOOOkkkkkkkkk k

You remember them Fuguzzi?
-
I remember everything I must admit Pompano was one of the few harness tracks i never got to in my 60 years Steve Oliwa Andy Santeramo Kevin Wallis all graced the Pompano oval lots more too
-
Yep, i knew them all. Steve Oliwa passed away much to young. Andy drove a few for us too! Kevin Wallis was usually on "big stable" horses. Which we certainly didn't own! LOL!
-
Yes, Stevie had talent way too much race fixing and scandalous behavior
-
Yes, i heard about that. But thankfully, never saw it when we races. But as a young owner, how would i really know? I jumped into the throughbreds 10 years later on the Calder/Gulfstream circuit.

Gotcha

Stevie had a good looking wife. I saw her and their kids walking to the winner's circle at Monticello a minute before the last race went off so I figured if they were getting ready for a Kodak moment I should bet his horse. He won and paid $50
-
interesting gotta cover all the angles steve definitely had a BIG ego and liked the ladies
-
Watch his races. He either goes to the top, quarter pole move, or first over. If he doesn’t leave he will gap his horse. He doesn’t tighten in close. If you want to be on the top with a claimer or overnight he’s a top driver. If you are looking for him to work out a drive following a horse good luck. He won’t be on the helmet following.

Geo Nap couldn't drive a hard c#ck into a wet #unt. went to the meadowlands last year looked like he was half retarded
