Funny   I'd say exactly in the order you have them. Now, as for big time. Top 3, especially Brett should be quite serviceable, capable drivers on a relatively big stage and may have some great moments. I would say they will have the talent of a Todd McCarthy using him as an example. Best young driver I have seen last 15 years, essentially exploding right out of his teenage years is Scotty Zeron.

 There should be some kind of mentor program. If I was a young driver I'd love to have an experienced driver like Simon Allard take me under his wing.

Beckwith and Hanners already have a guiding influence up at Saratoga.  Whether they heed his advice is up to them!

I have met Brett Beckwith and Luke Hanners in the Saratoga paddock. They both have won with horses I am a part of and Todd McCarthy has too.

Is Todd better than Andrew?  Inquiring minds want to know!
