One of the most laughable quotes I have seen in quite a while.

That is like saying Bill Laimbeer is one of the most athletic and lithe players to ever play the game of basketball.

She may not know the desert, but the woman knows Arlington Racecourse and its players.

We disagree, and that is not a problem for me, you can be sure. LOL

grits, I hated her at Arlington too, always mispronouncing names, stumbling over words and basically saying the obvious things that everyone already knew. I guess its a matter of preference, I was glad to see her go.

I very distinctly remembered her mangling the language and people's and horse's names.

And I guess I was indifferent to her, so I wasn't that sad to see her go.

Until I found out that instead of taking out the trash, they had just begun bringing it in. God help anyone who had to listen to that ridiculous idiot who replaced her at the beginning of the meet last year.

I'll take Liane Davis over both of them any day of the week.

Agreed, the first replacement was a total joke. But Liane Davis is okay to listen to if you want to.

So it sounds like she is a typical horseracing announcer.Why do they employ these people?Is it some sort of charity work?And Becky Witzman is even worse than her.Ugly as sin too,like someone took a baseball bat with nails in it to her face.

I saw the feed from Dubai this am and Christine and the other woman (don't know her) were OK but jeez, for so big and fashionable an event you'd think they'd dress up a bit and maybe get the hair styled for the occasion. Both were wearing clothes that made them look like kindergarten teachers and their hair looked in need of at least a "style and/or blowdry."
If I had a shot at an international broadcast like this one I'd be sure to at least look decent. I couldn't hear alot of the program so I didn't catch was they were saying most of the time. Christine was only average all through the Carnival, IMO.
