As a west coast guy I will be sad to see him go. Perhaps he has lost a little bit but he to me is still far ahead of Becker who just lists the running order without any indication of how they are travelling, being under a ride, etc. I also like that Trevor gives a play-by-play of the loading process as I don't always have 100% attention on every track and when I hear him saying such-and-such moving in then I can go make that last minute bet as opposed to Becker who doesn't say anything other than "They're at the Post," after the whole field is loaded and by then it's too late.

I think Frank M. would be my choice for replacement but any of the previous names mentioned would do a fine job. Well, maybe not Grunder.
