Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
David Fowler suffered every caller’s nightmare at Doomben this afternoon. He missed the start! I don’t know what Fowler was looking at, but it wasn’t the barriers that he was saying Andi Don’t Care had just moved into, because that had happened about 20 seconds before. The field was at the 800m mark before Fowler […]
Just had some reports from on the ground at Tumbarumba. They are all saying that the 15-year-old kid caller Vini Donnelly is slaying them. He should be calling at Caulfield the good judges assert. Apparently he is a lovely young man to talk to as well. How good is he. Very is the answer. He […]
Darren Flindell called the first race at Rosehill a desperately close photo. He must have been watching a different race to me. The inside won clearly to the naked eye. It wasn’t even doubtful. Flindell must be going blind.
What a great call by a fifteen year old kid. Bet you couldn’t do this. I know I cant. This kid Vini Donnelly is a genius. An out of the box superstar, and a real humble one too. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=24003055382666626 Vini will be calling at the Tumbarumba picnic meeting today. If you can, you should get […]
The race caller at Bunbury this afternoon – I dunno his name, so I will call him Wheelbarrow – must have divorce on the mind or something, or perhaps he is just a glass half empty time who sees gloom in a rainbow. Why else would he have called the winner of the first race […]
I don’t think the caller at the Mt Perry races on the weekend will be calling the Melbourne Cup anytime soon. Good on him for trying, but after calling only two of the ten runners in the ten horse field more than once, six of them once only and two of them not at all […]
David Fowler kicked off Cup day with a clanger. He jumbled up a couple of horse names, and for the first 800 meters of the six furlong race he called the leader Extreme Notice when its real name is Rates Notice. Feathers realized his mistake in the straight, and after a quick um and ah […]
Toowoomba race caller Anthony Collins has been kind enough to write in to explain the difficulties he faced during the call of race 3 at Toowoomba on Saturday, the main one being that the fog on the range was so thick that he couldn’t see the horses! That is fair call (pardon the pun it […]
The view from out the broadcast box at Toowoomba on Saturday night (pictured above) G’day Archie, It has come to my attention that you have “critiqued” the call of race two last night under trying circumstances at Toowoomba. To fill you in on a few details that need to be clarified; Last night’s “fog” was […]
What the hell went on here? Saga’s Girl is the horse circled in the orange near the rear as they go down the back. In between the bits we see through the fog and those we can’t the horses up front fan wide and Saga’ Girl gets a dream run up to about third on […]
