Default Terry Wallace

I didn't search for a duplicate thread...

Race 8 Oaklawn..

How can he not see Paisano Creek closing in a fast-paced race until 50 yards from the finish?

Is he blind?

My guess is that he has some serious dirt on Charles Cella.

Wallace is God-awful...just God-awful...

no, he's not. here's hoping, based on his allowing the streak to end, etc, that his retirement is near. he's awful. oaklawn wants to be a big time track, they need to start by getting a decent caller.

I have no problem with Oaklawn, but could it really be considered a major/big time track without any turf course?

i said they want to be one-the last few years they've produced some good spring racing with notable runners going on to further successes. it's just a shame that those races are called by someone who is inept. too bad they don't have a turf course, i don't know that they ever could tho.

This is the first year there's a big change in everything Terry has done since the begining of time at Oaklawn. He doesn't do a weekly radio show anymore. He gets a day off every now and then and I imagine his retirement is at hand. At least from his duties at Oaklawn are concerned. Just about everyone considers Terry a friend and that Oaklawn wouldn't be the same without him. Oaklawn is changing and hopefully for the better. Do you think Vic Stauffer would consider a move to the boyhood home of Bubba?

Good question, but I don't think it really matters. Is Keeneland a big time track despite the fact they don't have anything that resembles a dirt track?
