Hes a good driver. Worked in Virgils barn in the 90s and got some live drives. Good dude. He's actually allergic to horses. Can't touch them without gloves.

Can get one off the gate. He more than holds his own and makes a nice living.

Grissom returned with his tail between his legs after getting fired from Burke.  Brent is still out there

Must be following Horseplop. He won two races so far tonight at Yonkers.  Good for him!

I have nothing but respect for Holland. His aggressiveness often rewards backers with good payouts.
