Hooves I think that in house at CD you may still get Luke K. I know on Derby Day we get Luke's calls down there in house, not the tv announcer.
Since you will be there I think you may be hearing Luke.

Last time the BC was at CD, Luke did the first races, but as soon as the BC races were going, they switched to Durkin...They also used Durkin as the track anouncer at Lone Star...

I think Dave Johnson does the radio for Sirius.

Sounds like we're going to have a real good group of Trailers at Churchill this year....

I really think Jeff Gilleas should get more calls. He has a pretty sweet 80's style tux he whips out on WV Breeders Classic day.

Pedigree Ann,
It's not just about calling an accurate race, it's also about capturing the moment. Mellow announcers don't do that. To me, listening to Trevor Denman call a race is like listening to Ben Stein with a South African Accent calling a race.
