Thoroughbred jockeys and Harness drivers are no different. Some want instructions and some dont. And it certainly depends on who's giving the instructions and who's receiving them.  Guys like Pletcher, Baffert, Burke, or Svanstedt can say anything they want and jocks/drivers listen.

When I had my four at Pompano, my trainer would chat with the drivers in the afternoon before the race that evening. I would listen intently to who they thought were the best in the race. Very rarely was my horses viewed as the best. LOL!

Drivers only take instruction from other drivers. Have to make sure the bets get placed correctly.
