How bout CBS cvg???

[dylbert]

CBS coverage at Colonial Downs was very good. I am not regular viewer of HRTV; however, I know that Laffitt Pincay and Millie Ball do good work there. Caton Bredar and Jay Privman are very professional and have worked for other broadcast entities.

Technical difficulty will race call was minor glitch. Dave Rodman is one of the best race callers, period. He was super in his tenure at Louisiana Downs and does great work on Maryland circuit, Laurel & Pimlico. Plus, he has Colonial gig now.

ESPN does great job. Although I think they should include Kenny Mayne in every broadcast. Randy Moss, Jeannine Edwards and Jerry Bailey did fine job yesterday. ESPN called "audible" last week to cover Coaching Club American Oaks in lieu of Del Mar opening Saturday. Rags to Riches' scratch from race did lower viewer (and my personal) interest.

Comments about earlier postings here --

1) thread is CBS coverage -- so ESPN & CCOA comments are off topic
2) Millie Ball is pregnant -- cracks about "fat chick" are tasteless

LINE OF THE DAY from Laffitt Pincay (as best I can recall his words) -- "If I was only 6 inches shorter and 40 pounds lighter, I have the pedigree" in reference to working as jockey. Remember, he is THE Laffitt Pincay's son!
