The Record
John C Podres appears in the surviving Plainridge charts on 1 race day across the 2004 season, taking 3 drives behind 3 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 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 John C Podres drove most often here were GUDIA (1), OZZIE RULES (1), BACON HILL NICK (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.
