So he wins a Sire Stakes and an Excelsior with a couple 1-5 shots and you got him tabbed to be a great driver....he is Pelling sleaze by birth

Please dont refer to me as a casual bettor. I am 60 years old and have been around racing 50 years. I trained, did not drive, for almost 30 years Metro NY circuit. I have seen him drive, I have listened to his interviews. seems like a nice guy. But he is coming to driving late and with a silver spoon in his mouth. In his interviews he seems to be missing that "fire" in his gut. Admittedly, I have a personal dislike for his old man and his father, Brian from my midwest days in the 70s, so I am somewhat partial. They are all Croghan connected sleaze. I have paid my dues and then some in this business, so please dont think I am some casual bettor ranting on here. Just saying he is an ordinary driver, nothing more or less. Ganging up on Sire states with 1 - 5 shots doesnt prove talent, though it seemed to turn you on.

Pelling no kid at the age of 28 and seems destined for a future of Freehold at best. Now a "kid" like Brett Beckwith at age 20 has far more upside than Pelling and the numbers don't lie.

Plus Brett Beckwith has been taught better by his family and other horsemen at Saratoga.

This is a very true statement. Brett is a class act.

I raced with Bert, John and Mel Beckwith in New England 70s and 80s. I remember they had a hard hitting older trotter in those days named Mr. Nashua.   Very sad when Bert took his life at a young age over a woman.

Lol lol lol. Yes Brett a good driver and may or may not be better. And Brett learned from a good family.. but I guess learning from the greatest trainer to ever sit behind one in the history of the sport means zero ? Lol lol great post lol
