Seems like a pretty nice gig to have.

You're right that is a great job! In my younger days I'd have loved to work there. I know of several candidates.

He's my choice!

Stabile goes to TB and FMO slots into Talkin Horses. Which will be rebranded Spewin Drivel... My big break!

I nominate Travis! He needs a winter gig.

jms62 04-26-2021 08:33 AM

Listened to the call... Great call and a great race. He never made it about himself and understood the moment. Didn't call a 10K Claimer like it was the Kentucky Derby. I will remember him being the announcer to always kickoff NHC...

richard burch 05-04-2021 03:13 PM

I didn't know about this either....He was a good, steady race caller and will be missed.

Happy Trails!

I tried to honor Richard in the 2nd at OP on Saturday.

Didn't get much mileage. Can't think of anything more important that happened last Saturday.

Oh well, Here's my tribute.

Gonna miss ya Richard. Congrats on a great career.

His race starts at 2:14
