Bernard H Du Bois

2 charted drives at Plainridge.

The Record

Bernard H Du Bois appears in the surviving Plainridge charts on 1 race day across the 2002 season, taking 2 drives behind 2 different horses. No win is recorded in the charts held here, though the record shows 0 placings.

A strike rate on a half-mile or five-eighths oval says less about a driver than the same figure at a mile track, because post position and the first turn decide a great deal before the field has settled. Plainridge ran on a five-eighths oval, which puts four turns in a mile race and rewards a driver who can hold a pocket rather than one who simply leaves fast.

The horses Bernard H Du Bois drove most often here were IMA CATS MEOW (1), YOUCH POWDER (1). Repeated pairings usually mean a stable connection rather than a catch drive, and they are the most useful signal in the chart when reading a driver's form at a single track.
