Driver

Yannick Gingras

4 charted drives at Plainridge, 1 win, 25% strike rate.

The Record

Yannick Gingras appears in the surviving Plainridge charts on 1 race day across the 2004 season, taking 4 drives behind 4 different horses. Those drives produced 1 win, 2 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 measured five-eighths of a mile, 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 Yannick Gingras drove most often here were FIFTY FIVE CHEVY (1), MAGIE LILLY ROSE N (1), CANDY'S SECRET (1), TOO GOOD FOR US (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.
