I know he's a nyra guy and there's no shot at him calling Santa Anita, but John Imbriale is hands down the best out there right now IMO. He's got "it" whatever it is. Wrona is like finger nails on a chalkboard and frank sounds like a Debbie downer at the end of a race. His calls are so strange. Can't imagine him getting the full time gig.

Thanks for the Input Ms. Imbriale

Pretty much every announcer in the country? Imbriale is a good guy who does decent fill-in work but even he wouldn't claim to be anywhere near the top racecaller.
