Thanks guys. I got a little choked up because I have such great admiration for Joel and such an appreciation of what it means to accomplish something that three hall of famers did.

Probably not very professional. But we all know that's nothing new for me.

Vic,

I know which horse Rosario is on in every race you call, its blatant....I think you know that though.

I disagree. I'm a huge fan of all jockeys and when any of them have a great accomplishment I always make a big deal of it.

As for inflections. Anitbiotics are usually helpful.

Are you a huge fan of abuse like Victor's in the last race?

Is it harder to call a rac with 4 horses in it? I would think these 5 horse fields are an easy study..

Vic, seriously Cal racing is in serious trouble.. When can we expect Rosario to come to Philly Park during the day and Penn Nat at nigh?. Love your calls, think Joel Rosario is terriffic come east and grab a handful of cash. You never know when you are going to need a few extra bucks

I make my worst mistakes and most pathetic calls in short field routes. I tend to try and say too much rather than just reporting the action. The pacing and rythem of the race is very different. I hate it.

Philly Park in the day and Penn. Nat. at night. Ah.... NO!

Even though the purses are good at Philly Park, there simply are not enough big stakes races there. If you're the leading rider at Philly Park, you're not going to make anything close to what Joel makes right now. Here is a link to the national standings. Joel is 6th leading rider in the country with earnings of $12.6 million. He couldn't make anything close to that at Philly Park. If you're the leading rider at Philly Park, you won't even be in the top 20 in money won.

There is no bias in my racecalls. In fact I underplay it when Rosario is doing well. Unlike the other riders I said nothing in my calls or winners circle as he was winning the first 5 of his six yesterday. Any other rider and I'm all over it. Like when Bejarano recently won 4 and a week or so ago when Talamo won five.

I only said something about Joel's 6th yesterday because it was Hollywood Park history. The track and the fans deserved that. And I was very very proud of Joel.

If you didn't know I was his agent you wouldn't be able to tell anything.

Of course I'm biased but you'll never hear it in my calls.

Try a Z-pack for that inflection. I hear they'll kill anything.

Your calls are very good perhaps the very best in the sport at least to my ear.. Rosario is a fine rider and perhaps a FUTURE great BUT he is racing against 4 other horses in a race and on the most likely of the 4. I am not hating just suggestting that his recent success is jaded by th eenvironment or lack there of in Cali..
