The Record
Scott R Nichols sent out 18 charted starters at Plainridge across 2 seasons, 2003 to 2004, drawn from a string of 10 different horses. Those runners produced 3 wins together with 3 further placings.
On 17 of those starts Scott R Nichols 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 LOVEY GURR (3), FUN MESSAGE (3), PRINCE OF TROT (3), TURN LEFT A (3). A trainer who starts the same horse repeatedly at one track is usually placing it to a condition it can hold, which is the pattern worth reading in the table below.
