Ake
« on: July 30, 2023, 12:45:10 AM »
Great trainer; horrible driver.  Over the years he has cost some of his horses dearly.  I can understand sitting behind a horse for his first few starts, or if something quirky is going on with one of his horses in races, but he can't find it in training miles...but for any big $$$ race he should just hand over the reins.  His drive tonight on Bond (although was lucky to qualify for the final, while the horse was walking to the finish line) was just brutal.  Go to a 25:4 Q with a rail horse knowing (or perhaps not knowing) you are leaving holes behind you for all of the leavers??  Rivals his drive on Six Pack in the Hambo elim in 2018 which cost Six Pack a chance at the Hambo!!

He is not fully understanding of the North American Driving style, and Agreeably should step aside once he has a horse headed in the right path.

Needs top quality driver on grand circuit at very least. Ake in my mind good b track driver.

He has the ability to teach his trotters to leave the gate. Most of his wins are on the front end or in the 2 hole. And even then he's looking over his shoulder to see if anyone is coming well before the 1/2. . He leads the sport in pulling the pocket before the stretch.

Great, Great trainer but 2nd level driver. I watched his drive in the Six Pack race, BRUTAL

Maybe just a coincidence but he had 6 in on Saturday all out of detention
barn and a 5th was the best finish he had.

  • Bitter Truth: That Golden Tempo , I'm afraid is  a money burner. Gets so far back. Was in range but just hung and raced even in the stretch. Didn't see a Derby winner in there in my opinion.

  • dougie: He got good tactical speed. I really thpught he had a big shot to pull it off.
