Not unexpected whatsoever, he’s Blais main man now, which comes with plenty of grand circuit opportunities..

Can’t bet the card, wasn’t last year, every single winner was on the front??

[macdaddi]

roy what a dumb decision  passline broke and almost can back and won

[Harness Stats]

Is that your musing of the day?  You think Roy cares about whether or not he might have won by driving a Burke horse?  He is in it for the long game and his French Canadian roots and history would have him choose the Blais horse every single time.

nice to see small local guy get the win
3 burke horses in final, not what other ontario trainers want to see going forward

[Brown jug]

clearly mcclure and blais have decided to part ways
doesn't even put mcclure down when he has two in a race

[whiptherabbit]

Good gig driving exclusively for Determination Stable. They pour money into yearlings every year, trotters & pacers & it’s a good pay day for the driver. I assume McClure choosing off last year derailed his big drives…

[Ramone]

Good gig driving exclusively for Determination Stable.…

Not anymore. Not last year either. It must be a very nervous time for Luc Blais.

[Brown jug]

agreed on blais
i know the owner has more money than most countries
however last few years despite expensive yearlings not much to account for
at some point mr godin will find another trainer
