I don't think he was disputing that part of your statement. I believe you are correct about Trevor not betting. I think he was disputing that Vic would work for very little money.
Speaking of track announcers, they did a feature on Luke Kruytbosch the other day. It's funny how when you see what these announcers look like, they don't look anything like what you would expect. Luke is a big, fat guy and his speaking voice is nothing like his announcing voice. He also seemed like a little kid. He was very animated. They showed him preparing to call a race and he used crayons to color in the silks to help himself remember what colors each jockey had. His personality was like Tom Hank's in the movie "Big". He was like a little kid. His voice is not nearly as low as the voice he uses when he calls races.
