Stat update

Guess this would be mainly to Cliff but if anyone else has any input it would be welcome.

Cliff, know you have been busy lately and may not be keeping up with your normal stats but do you have any current numbers for drivers. Especially the Trotters.

As a point of discussion, with the absence of some of the more seasoned or better drivers a lot of the younger and less successful drivers have been getting more rides.

Is there anyone that looks to be showing improvement that we can look for becoming more bet worthy. I think Wyatt has been consistent and often have him on my tickets.

GTapp, if you go to the Northfield web site and go to the Handicapper's Corner, there is a FREE Statsmaster link for the trainers/drivers/horses at Northfield. You can configure your query to see what drivers, trainers or horses have been hot (or cold) during any time frame. In the last 30 days, Ammon Hershberger has been hot with trotters, probably because he has a couple of good ones. Charlino is always good with a trotter and Robin Miller has improved.

Of the second tier drivers, Wyatt Irvine, Robin Miller, and Ken Koch are all decent trot drivers. Kurt Sugg can be, but isn't as consistent. Forget about everyone else, the rest win by accident. Having said that, I just recalled Charlie Myrick winning two on one card last week, and Ammon winning consistently with a couple. These are special cases when they have much the best horse in the field.
