  • Don't be so modest Georgie!!!

  • No way brian sears is anywhere near the best Ron Waples won every major stakes race available and rarely had the favorite like Sears

  • On another note 5 years ago i would have maybe said Tony Morgan...But the last few years or so he's been a common SOB....I think he plays alot of games it's almost like he doesn't wanna win..I know he's got loads of talent but never does anything

  • I am only gonna give three

    1 Walter Case Jr 1,100 wins in one year nuff said "With a million fewer starts then Tetrick"

    2 Herve Filion over 15,000 wins

    3 Dave Palone over 14,000 wins

  • Herve Filion, Stanley Dancer, Billy Haughton, Edward Geers, John Campbell.

  • Shelly Goudreau was the greatest driver I ever saw bar none. He always gave the the horse he was driving the best chance it had to run its race and the horses responded by improving their race times. Sadly he died in a racing accident when he was only 34 back in the fall of 1982.

  • Of course,this is all opinion.And of course this is 2011. Times change,people and horse's (all athletes) get better. BUT - most of these guys were'nt there when Harness Racing was at it's peak in the late 60's and the 70's at the GREATEST TRACK OF ALL - Roosevelt Raceway !!!!!!!!!! I remember when the older Meadowlands drivers started out there. You would love them and hate them at the same time. Ron Pierce got it right ! O'Donnell - NOT !!! It has nothing to do with the amount of money won.

  • YOU HAVE TO PUT HERVE FILLION FOR ALL THE WINS

    WHAT ABOUT BILLY PARKER

  • to tough to name a top 5 . should seperate to ' who is thje top 5 of the 50's - 60's, 70's etc'..

  • @PlaYah1979

    Was there every night from his first to last drive.

    No one could touch him on the half.
