3 charted drives at Plainridge.

The Record

Shawn A Thayer appears in the surviving Plainridge charts on 3 race days across the 2003 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 Shawn A Thayer drove most often here were ELNINO SCOT (1), KEVINSTRIKESAGAIN (1), GEMINI JENNY (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.
