There's something to be said about letting the local guy doing it. I think Dave Rodman is an excellent caller and his Preakness calls have always been very solid. It will be tough to listen to anyone but Durkin call the Belmont.

That being said, if it has to go to someone I hope it's Larry Collmus.

I'm no xenophobe, and Johnson is a very good caller, but I'd prefer an American call America's biggest race. Forgot about Dooley, he would absolutely be a great choice and it's overdue he get to call something more significant than the Arlington Million (like that Scav?).
