The Record
Bruce W Ranger appears in the surviving Plainridge charts on 17 race days across 2 seasons, 2003 to 2004, taking 46 drives behind 36 different horses. Those drives produced 9 wins, 5 seconds and 4 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 the draw and the run to 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 Bruce W Ranger drove most often here were LU LU SPUR (3), SHEZAPERFECTMATTCH (2), GROOMSMAN (2), TSM ELWOOD BEACH (2). 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.
