Fill this rookie in. Dish, dish, dish...
He was just a real ass clown on TVG with his constant hyperbole and exclamations regarding the best horse he ever rode. At various times I think I heard him say Winning Colors, Point Given, Silver Charm, and War Chant.

I was surprised to hear that he is a smoker. I wonder if he often enjoyed the Curt Bourque-esque paddock smoke before a race.
