Both beckwith and Boyd will get even better with age. I'm rooting for Boyd!

The Beckwith kids biggest liability is the threat of having to go down as family trainer in the event of another "happenstance "!

Tyler Borth. Beckwith, Ahearn and Braxton Boyd are talented with the lines

Ahle looks very talented.  Beckwith and Dalious have gotten some wins this winter at M!.

While not on the East coast, I would add Jacob Cutting to this list.

Alot of the men spoken about were born in the business.  Johnathan Ahle has come along way in a very short time.  2 years ago he was driving in amatuer races, learned the game working for Shaun Vallee, travels all over to get drives

Borth and Boyd are at a different level.

Ahle and/or Beckwith both could be decent, but are not even close to the other two.

Cutting is not even close to cutting it, relative to this group.

Adam Moeykens has improved a lot in the past 6 months, something about 1 in a 100 harness drivers ever do...improve at any point.

hard to rate east coast drivers since the driver pool there is so weak
