Noble driving like Case

[Bitter Truth]

He's leaving with everything from everywhere. Hang him, he doesn't care. Still winning.
Absolutely schooling them. Really making booze-boy work, though he's not down to drive tonight.

Eight hole, down the road again. 13-1 Trotter wobbling all the way right to the wire.

Noble is better than booze boy

[Bitter Truth]

He's gotten soft with Wrenn rarely there. He doesn't know what to do with Noble taking it to him.
The Rhoades boy is coming on too.

[MCR]

Noble will be 2026 leading driver if he sticks to northfield for the season

That wolf urine really works

[Bitter Truth]

VERY few of his wins are coming from his stable. I would like to see a pack of wolves piss on Merriman though.

AKA a la Wally Hennessey at Pompano Park (RIP) years ago!

Not a difficult way to race, especially at Dayton, Miami Valley, and Scioto!  Everybody gets a seat on the rail before the 1/4 pole!

[Ramnap]

Alright, listen-here's the real deal. Half teaspoon wolf urine in a cup of water, spray it on the gloves, light mist on the colors. Don't overdo it or the whole barn turns into Jurassic Park. Dan swears by that mix-works every time.

Driving like Case? As in Walter?

I had the utmost respect and admiration for Dan's dad. I knew him well. He was a great driver and a great horseman. His son isn't a fraction of the driver or man his dad was. He doesn't have the all around ability, talent, or skills, his dad had.

As far as Walter Case. Really? There are people who hate Walter Case. There are people who think he had no skills, talent, or ability, and he only achieved what he did because-----he drove for certain trainers, was high or drunk when he drove, or some other idiotic reasons. Very few people here can truly recognize talent, abilities, and skills. They watch the teletimer, focus on useless stats, etc. Walter Case, aside from the person he was or is, the demons, his crime, etc., was a great driver. Period. He had talent, ability, and skills. All of is. He was a great driver and his career never reached its peak or potential his career, because his life kept getting derailed, and his life just spiraled downward and out of control.

You want to look at stats, so be it.....But let's just put his driving titles into some perspective. Go look at the years he won the driving title for wins, broke the record for wins, and did it twice. Look at how many starts he had.....Now, when Tetrick broke Case's record, go look at how many stars he needed to do it. Same with Merriman. Meaningless. OK. But, if you didn't see him on the track, you just don't know. And if you did, and you think it was all a result of driving for certain trainers, or drugs, or whatever, so be it. I won't argue with stupidity. Ask John Campbell, Billy O, Mike Lachance, Jackie Mo, Carmine Abbatiello, Luc Ouellette, and if they were around, you could've asked Herve Filion and Buddy Gilmour. I'd say they're more qualified opinions than those here. Sure, from on-track/driving he had countless days, penalties, etc., and it was mostly from failing to keep his feet in the stirrups. Yes, that was a major issue and problem. In various years he had 250 or so days.

Dan is no kid. He's what now, 42 or 43. Sure, he's gonna win a lot of races. Talent, skills, and ability-wise, that doesn't put him in the same category as Walter Case.

RAINMAN...I have to assume you dont watch south ohio racing.  10 horse fields on  5/8 tracks makes for wild races with someone moving at every quarter. Might be the toughest racing anywhere. So your saying everyone has a seat by the quarter pole tells me the next south ohio race you watch may be your first .
GRANDSTAND said Dan Noble has no talent and couldnt shine his dads shoes?  Danny is the most talented driver in ohio and one of the best in the industry. Got excused from Scioto for going too fast and now catch driving anything at northfield and killing it. Please try and pay better attention

[Bitter Truth]

Was by no means comparing him with Case career or ability wise. Big fan of Walter here.
I'm just saying he is piking most everything , much like Case back in the day at Nfld.
Sam , his dad was one of father's faves. He also was not afraid to cook one up to prove
a point to another driver that forgot to respect him.

I didn't say he has no talent. Don't be foolish and say I said something I didn't. He has talent. I chose not to say that. What I said is that he's not a fraction of the driver, nor man, his dad was. Go read it again. Perhaps slower. He might be the most talented driver in OH. So he's the best of a poor bunch, IMO. One of the best in the industry? Really? Let's see where his career goes from here.

[Oliver Clozoff]

He must a have a buzzer in that whip because his horses just keep coming

Got it. I get the analogy. In today's day and age, for many reasons, I think it's easier to "make speed" than it was in the 80's and 90's. Not saying Dan isn't doing it, or good at it.
