Where did Justin Irvine go?

Did they run Irvine out of NJ??  I haven't seen him at Northfield either.  Anyone have the scoop?

5 drives tuesday at Northfield
I am just an old horse trainer still going around in circles. Sometimes Fast. Sometimes Half-Fast.

Not sure what the hype about him is.  Average at best.  And that’s against a very mediocre driving colony.

I agree .  Rarely see him win a race .  Zero effort most of the time.  Horses he was driving have won more without a new driver .   They pumped him up but imo he's below average at best

He had some nice momentum building at Northfield, never should have left IMO.
He's there part time now, gets no drives, no live horses. It's seems like it's out of sight out of mind.
I'm going to assume she's behind all the decisions.

He might get alot more live drives at Northfield depending on what happens with Aaron. If he is suspended for any length of time it leaves a big void there and at the Meadows

Would you skip going on a free trip down under. Believe me it's a cool place, jog on the beach, racing is amazing, 15 horses standing start. Summer time there or Northfield? Hope he has a great time and meets a lot of people. No Worries Mate

    We all have our opinions. But i like this kid driving. He definitely has talent that can't be denied.

Don't get me wrong I like him too.
I can look past a couple of the immature moments he had last year like throwing the whip because I appreciate the passion. I would much rather have a driver throw his whip because he's pissed that he lost than a potted plant who didn't try in the first place.

Took time off to enjoy a vacation with his beautiful bride! Can't blame the kid going over seas probably doesn't happen very often! Plus you have to make a life for yourself out side of racing otherwise you'll end up very lonely!
