The Record
Joel H Wheeler sent out 76 charted starters at Plainridge across 3 seasons, 2003 to 2005, drawn from a string of 17 different horses. Those runners produced 13 wins together with 23 further placings.
On 1 of those starts Joel H Wheeler also held the lines. The trainer-driver is the ordinary case at a regional meeting rather than the exception, and it is one reason form at a track like this reads differently from a circuit where catch-drivers dominate.
The horses that appeared most often for this stable were T E'S COOL SPRING (16), CENTRAL PERK (11), ABBY'S OVERSCORE (10), CLASSY TALKER (10). A trainer who starts the same horse repeatedly at one track is usually placing it to an eligibility band it can hold, which is the pattern worth reading in the table below.
