I remember his days at Hialeah.. in 1993, calling a race with a horse named "Altmagraenaraguda", after two vain attempts at pronouncing the horse's name, he surrendered during the stretch run: "Here comes the number 4."

also he called a race during an earthquake in cali... you can listen to it here..

famous lines.. "we have a new leader" , "is straight and strong" are sometimes tiresome though

He recieved notice of his termination by e-mail. Real classy move by Magna.

Vic is, imho, heads and shoulders above Collmus as an announcer.

Well when Sylvester the cat has a horse ready...he has a horse ready. Sufferin' Succotash!!

Ok I absolutely love Price Tag in this race. Going heavy on the win and a nifty double with the 5,8,10,12.

Let's make it happen!!

Sorry guys, I thought you had it at the top of the stretch.

Damn. Clement's mule sure didn't do us any favors.

But you've got to hand it to Citronnade, that was a blazing time.

That is what happens when Clemente gets a horse, she ran like crap today.....

I don't think Vacare's handy defeat today had to do with Clement's training job but more that she is probably a nifty GII/GIII type horse. The Magna Distaff became the ultimate negative key race as numerous horses out of it came back to tank. Vacare was also up against the pace scenario today but had no punch when push came to shove. If they keep her out there for the CashCall Mile, as the owner did not deny their potential interest in doing that, you may see a different horse, but undoubtedly the queen of the turf on the West Coast right now is Citronnade.

I'm not going to begrudge Citronnade for always catching paceless races. She was nearly confronted by a very nice horse today and still dug in and held her off.

I'm still high on Price Tag. Frankel should send her to Toga so I can hammer down on her proper like.

Completely agree...the first thing I thought after the race was that the Diana would be a terrific spot for her.

It would be perfect. She's got a load of talent.

No, I am not...Clemente gets some of the best stock besides the well known people and he doesn't win crap but allowance and Grade 3 races.....just not a fan

On another note, I had $300WP on this friggin 10 in the last race and I get caught. THE SLIDE IS STARTING.....
