PR Harness the record of the oval

Driver

Brad D Irvine

218 charted drives at Plainridge, 35 wins, 16.1% strike rate.

The Record

Brad D Irvine appears in the surviving Plainridge charts on 80 race days across 4 seasons, 2002 to 2005, taking 218 drives behind 51 different horses. Those drives produced 35 wins, 18 seconds and 29 thirds.

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 Brad D Irvine drove most often here were FLICKERS LIKE GOLD (11), MATT'S DUDE (9), EDITOR HANOVER (8), CALLIE'S CANDYMAN (6). 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.
