The Record

David N Cochrane appears in the surviving Plainridge charts on 9 race days across 2 seasons, 2003 to 2004, taking 6 drives behind 4 different horses. Those drives produced 1 win, 0 seconds and 0 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 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 David N Cochrane drove most often here were SENT FROM ABOVE (3), ONE ON ONE (1), CHRISTOPHEREARL (1), L DEES MASTROIANNI (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.
