The young man has 2002 career wins.  How many tracks has he driven at fulltime?

Saratoga
Meadowlands
Plainridge

These are tough tracks to win at and win driving titles too! You also need firepower to drive and a little luck too!

My trainer started Brett with horses to drive very early in this career, and they were not the easiest to drive yet alone win with.  2 of his earliest winners were at odds of 20/1+.

Driver Brett Beckwith capped his marvelous year at The Big M by becoming the youngest driver in harness racing history to reach the career 2,000-win plateau. The 22-year-old pilot won the fifth race Saturday (Dec. 27) night with Belmont Major N to reach that lofty number. 
Beckwith finished the year far in front in the Meadowlands driver dash-win standings with 146. Mark Herschberger was second with 99.

If he stays the course, he could be the all time dash winner, ever..that being said, let's hope he didn't inherit his old man's demons  tmbz1

Not sure I agree..Palone has 41 years on Beckwith...500 wins a year keeps him on course

  • Sweet: Thankfully Mike is on the case, along with NYCLASS and other protestors.  When any side has no represenation, then they're screwed, because money and power rule of ethics i.e. the horse racing industry and how it cannot self sustain.  Pacer 2 and G are evil, nuts too!  tmbz1

  • dougie: IIB, I think the mayor will sign the bill if it reaches his desk. The optics on this issue is bad for the horse carriage industry. Animal activists are adept to using the media to enlist horror and anger by the public.

  • Ignorance Is Bliss: It's now a bill with city council. Public hearings will be scheduled then the council votes on it. If passed it's sent to the Mayor to sign into law. He has already said he's in. Marte just took over, Bob Holden is the actual author of the bill who retired last year.

  • dougie: IIB, I have been reading some of the work Councilman Marte has been doing on this issue. I think he might be successful with passing the 'Ryders Law" Bill this time around. The image of the horse dead on the street has even been seen here everywhere. If the animal activists can get this on the ballot, who knows how the vote will go.
