Cornelius J Bonetti

31 charted drives at Plainridge, 1 win, 3.2% strike rate.

The Record

Cornelius J Bonetti appears in the surviving Plainridge charts on 41 race days across 4 seasons, 2002 to 2005, taking 31 drives behind 8 different horses. Those drives produced 1 win, 2 seconds and 3 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 was a five-eighths-mile track, 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 Cornelius J Bonetti drove most often here were MARC MY SPEED (10), RIBBON ROAD (8), DEVILED ALBERT (4), BEACH BUNNY BANDIT (3). 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.
