Switzer wins 5 races
Slow start—took him all the way to Race 7 to bag #5.  Meanwhile, chalk dominates making for some fairly predictable results at Cumby.

Makes it easy when he's listed on a few better ones in each race, and he can pick the best one. That's not the case when he drives at Palinridge.

I heard they remodeled the driver's lounge. The previous one was a trailer to protect them from frostbite

How can the poor horseman survive with such small purses. How can an owner even have a prayer of ever making a dime?

2nd job for most. Their better halves have well-paying jobs.

Many are shipping Maine sire stakes horses to the NW 1, NW 2, or NW3 classes at the Ridge. Totters and pacers are going. With 4 days of racing there, cheaper classes are a go, and the Fields are not that tough this time of the year, and the purses are fantastic.  Racing for $12,500 to $17,500. We got some nice checks last week.

Without horse's from Maine Plainridge would have a lot of short fields

Many have shipped, but you need horses that can be competitive. Most will be in the cheap TM races.
