Totally agree in this case, Becker has done better calls, and this race certainly deserved a better call.

Becker is one of my favorites, I like the monotone calls. I didn't listen to the call today, had the sound off because of work.

I have heard or read an interview with him once, and he implied that Keeneland wants the monotone call, with little emotion. I think he just gives them what they've requested.

He is better than their last announcer

Was getting gas during the call, listening on Byk's show..Thank G-d the gal next to me was hot other wise it would have been a complete waste of 2.40 minutes.. How horrendous in the horse pool when 9 year olds off injury are in fashion.. Go Lava Flow..lol

it's all about Penn Nat folks... Find a horse that can run a 75 BSF consistently and I will show you a 40k a year earn..

Yeah, I like him also...he is very clear and makes few mistakes.
It helps that Kee always folllows TWP on the Ky racing calendar..(Battaglia)
