People, the kid is 22 years old. Why do we need to put labels on his career at this point.
He puts his nose down and works hard. He is willing to travel and earn his stripes.
Top trainers like Burke put him on their horses, enough said.
How about we just enjoy watching him mature, do well and see what happens.
Nothing wrong with comparing him to today's drivers that he competes with, but to John Campbell? Stop it would you please.
I bet even Brett would respectfully dismiss and pivot away, cause he has that "it" factor as a pro.
He is building his resume towards competing on the biggest stage. Tough not to root for a kid like this, who handles himself with grace and class.
EXACTLY! Brett is a good egg but to put him in John Campbell’s category? PLEASE
Not to be confused with HAKU.

That very well may be true.

However we live in a slightly different world today.

Connections sometimes more important than work ethic, etc.

I had a 3yearold trotting filly, couldn't get her around the turns. Mark took her for two weeks, went around like she was on rails. Mark knows his shit!

You can hate him but, he is the go to guy if you have a problem horse or need some intel on a horse you are interested to buy. You would think he would not want to give you a potential edge with his knowledge since he might end up racing you. Mark has helped many out.

Letting out the hopples is marks first go to causing bad gait or break. Either way driver has to "grab up."

Mark's 1st go to is Sheep Wormer, Hormones, Bronchial Dilators etc...then " Let the hopples out"  ngc3 and he's not letting hopples out to have his horses bad gaited or to cause breaks..the guy's training average is about 6 million!

Can this kid become the greatest all of time by the time he’s done driving? His numbers are off the charts for any drivers let alone a kid his age.
JMO...I think so when its all said and done...hopefully he didn't inherit the thievery gene...time will tell

He can go a long way up the list but to break into the best 10 ever may be a stretch.
