Curious what his driver ranking is?   Any thoughts?   Is this close?
1) Gingras
2)D Miller
3)Page
4)R Wrenn

Change this to:

1) Gingras
2) R. Wrenn
3) Page
after that it appears to be the best driver available, e.g. Dunn, Miller, Tetrick, etc

I have not analyzed it in detail but I would say for grand circuit it would be:
1) Gingras
2) Miller especially trotters

In general:
1) Gingras
2) Miller
3) R. Wrenn
4) Page

It is hard to judge since for sire stakes Miller and Gingras are not available.  Palone was in the mix but not very much today. R. Wrenn seems to be the Burke raising star.

Not a hot take. I truly believe Chris Page has been his best driver  recently. Not by a little. By a lot.

I’m curious as to why Tetrick is now part of the cult

I have not seen him drive for Burke in a long time.

I think page is good but R. Wrenn might be better.

Page yes - Ronnie NO.  He can drive anywhere and be very good.  He goes to Meadowlands and he's top 5 driver in a month.

Miller leaving for Ohio after this year needs a second choice behind Yannick

Wow. What a stupid topic. Who cares about Ron Burke. He is the biggest doper in the business. He has the strongest pain medication that is totally undetectable he should be sitting next to nick surick. But the industry keeps letting crooks cash their checks and when they’re caught they just put their brother. Mother. Sister. Father down as trainer and never miss a week. If your horse can’t walk give it to him that horse will run off in 1:49 with no problem
