Congrats to Scotty Zeron

[Brown jug]

very good and interesting point

[Mazola]

If Zeron drove for Burke he would be top 2 in earnings and Burke would win a lot more big races.  Rumor on the street is Nancy is shopping for a backup on Karl.  There just looking for a reason to get rid of Yannick.  Everyone knows he's a week to week driver and can't win the Hambo.  Winning the hambo takes planning and getting the horse right.  Yannick doesn't teach a horse anything and he has zero skills.  With Yannick driving Karl will have to go gait to wire every start next year.  He will never last doing that.

Yea, everyone is trying to get rid of the driver that tops the standings

[Grandstand Handicapper]

Both very talented, top drivers. Two categories I give Scott a very distinct edge in are, one, I think Scott is a "smarter" driver than Yannick, higher driver IQ. Two, I think Scott also has a better sense of pace than Yannick, a better internal clock, but able to use it at any point in a race and in any position on the track. To me, Scott is often driving more than one horse in a race if you know what I mean. Sure, people say Yannick drives for Burke, drives for Takter, if he didn't he'd be a nobody, he wouldn't be top 5 or 10, and so on.

That's just BS. If you know what you are looking at, you can tell a driver who is successful mainly because of who he is driving for, or because he's got more horsepower, etc. I am not saying Yannick would do as well, but that doesn't mean he isn't a top driver. Morons said the same thing about Jackie Mo, he was great only because he was driving for Robinson and Pelling. That's complete BS and total stupidity. Jackie Mo was a great driver, period.

Who would drive you horses? If Jackie Mo was in his prime (not 2023 age).

Whether it’s a Nw/2, 15k claimer, the meadowlands pace, the Hambletonian?

The Ronnies...Waples and Pierce
They always raced a horse intelligently, and brought your horse back in one piece...cannot say the same thing about most of they guys today.

 Scotty is truly a top level driver, one of the best in the business. He's also a bit of a rare find in harness racing, educated, well spoken and polite. A real asset to the industry.

Interesting, is there more to this Lance ?

Proof of this is when he was hurt and did the Hambo telecast and when he filled in at Lexington when Dave Brower passed.

[Brown jug]

both yannick and scott are top notch drivers on the track ( that is what we are basing this on ??)
they are just different
i would suggest either would fit a certain horse or certain situation based on the timing

Agree. If you need someone to represent the sport, he would be the one.
