Yeah- that was ugly. It's bad when you know the announcer's wrong and are just waiting for him to correct himself. Kind of like watching a really fat guy plow Chicken McNuggets into his mouth as you almost feel like you have to look away and wait for the correction to happen.

LMFAO... I was wondering what the hell he was talking about too.

I think his ED meds kicked in at the wrong time. It was..

Electrifying pulling a head

Agreed

This guy at one time was the best. Not anymore!!
Now he's missed two $1,000,000 race calls. This one and Street Sense in the BC Juvenile.

[Indian Charlie]

while that was quite bad, i've heard far fewer tom durkin calls in my lifetime (by a factor of thousands) and I've easily heard him make more mistakes, big race or not.

at least trevor, to my knowledge, has never called a horse not even in the race.

Must got something to do with the Santa Anita track surface

It was far more painful watching the Frank's Energy Drink contestants try and talk.

[Ogygian]

I am not sure who is more painful to listen to...the announcer from Tampa Bay Downs or Denman...first he called "Now Victory", Victory Now the entire race...I am not sure he even called Go Between until the far turn...then down the stretch he must have spilled his drink on his program..Electrify is going the better of the two..errrrr GoBetween goes on...there has to be someone a tad better at their job then these 2?????
Actually just listened to it again...he called Go Between..."Electrify" on the first turn...called Celtic Dreams..Seminole Native turning for home...I mean come on...

[SCUDSBROTHER]

I DON'T HAVE A CLUE HOW HE MIXED THESE 2 UP.If one of the horses with green silks had won,then I could see him calling it Electrify,but the winner is all white silks.To me,the turqoise used for the 9 number is pretty much a stand-out(compared to all the colors of numbers.)I guess when horses are making moves that quickly,that's when mistakes calling races seem to happen.

Does any one know how long Trevor's contract is with the Breeder's Cup? I think his calls are just plain bad.

I wish the BC would consider some one else. Maybe Vic Staufer.

One of my big complaints with TD is that he NEVER gives the fractions of the race. This is information that people want to know. It does tell a lot about how the race is unfolding, does he not realize that?

If he gave them today, nobody would have believed him anyway!

[my miss storm cat]

We all make mistakes.

I'm surprised, but really... if we make a mistake in our work? It's not the end of the world. It's really easy to sit here and judge but i can't imagine calling race after race and not messing up occassionally.

(Oh I am NOT being sanctimonious..... I just like the guy.)

I think I'd rather hear Denman call the wrong horse down the stretch than hear that guy at Tampa scream from start to finish. How does that guy have a job?

The fractions are on the t.v. Why would you need him to say them?

this oaklawn caller is no prize either!
