I wish you well on getting through the card with as few mistakes as possible. Lots of people send me DM's on twitter highlighting each and every mistake. I wish they wouldn't. Very time consuming for me.

I think I'm calling pretty well.

Dec 9th was opening day. 6 months off. Thought I was solid.

4 months from my 64th birthday.

Today was particularly difficult. Announcers find great comfort in names and silks they've seen before.

Today the number of horses I had to call that I had never seen their name or silks was 87!

That's not easy.

Felt pretty good about my work today.

Of course, can always get better.
