Probably. Depends on who's being replaced. If it's Ronnie Wrenn replacing Dan Kennedy in a Northfield race, yes.

I feel ripped off whenever he drove for me and they took 25 out of my account.

Top driver at Hawthorne wasn't he? Just a lot of live mounts?

I think it was the only time my horse didn't win and still had the earplugs in when he came back to the barn.

Another nail in the coffin if this becomes standard. Little guy leaves, a lot of horses leave IMO.

I have a tough time believing this could happen but other folks may no better than me. If it were I as owner trainer id do the same thing the Steelers did with bell - just lock the person out.

The only two drivers worth this are probably Sears and Miller. But it would so such disarray with the driving community that it would make little sense.

ngc3 Are any drivers agreeing to give a rebate if you use them. So instead of getting 5  percent maybe they get 2. It's like a free market driving concept.

Mucous should definitely be on the rebate system
