Hall of Fame driver John Campbell

I haven't seen any articles lately about Hall of Fame driver John Campbell

His stats are hard to believe,

Starts 556 Win % 10% UDR 0.205 ROI -43% (the crowd still overbets him)

Is he just being nice and driving a bunch of losers for old friend trainers?
62 is not old any more.

Anyone know?

More youthful and agile drivers are winning the majority races.

Other top drivers totally lost it and never got it back once they started the downward trend. Thinking of Ben Webster and Bill O'Donnell in the realm of top echelon. A little further down the line is Bill Fahy, a good driver and a great trotter driver. But once he started down...

I pitch him unless his horse is 2-3 seconds faster. He just cant seem to get a horse home. Brett Miller can keep a horse going to the finish line.
