YR questions
« on: October 17, 2023, 08:55:41 PM »
Been watching YR a bit more these days -

2 questions of the guys in the know.

1 - what's Brent Holland's story? How does he make a living? He is brutal.

2 - Does Per Engblom train for himself or is he a front for someone?

TY

Brent has been making that failed 3/8ths move with great frequency lately. 

He is driving to lose a lot.  That is something that needs to be curtailed.

Yeah that drive inspired me to write at the moment, but night after night he looks lost. Tonight he hasn't managed better than two 4ths and his horses weren't that bad.

He knew that was a losing move, yet he made it anyway.  So the question is "why?"

Well as of today he has3 million in purse $. So he’s made at least 150 thousand this year. I don’t consider that starving. I don’t know if he owns any horses.

Not starving No, but his win % almost worst of the main ten at YR and with those purses he should be making 400 or 500,000
Dont you agree.

My plumber makes more money.  You wanna defend Brent Holland by saying he is gonna earn 200k at YR this year. Fine  -  you like to argue. Time to put you on ignore.

The guy is good for $200-250K a year in commissions. Holland is far from the best but there are many others drivers below him. And I don’t know if he has any other income within the industry.
