Travis(vox) wintering with NYRA

[Grits]

Travis, much congratulations on your, just announced, association with John Imbriale and all of NYRA's team this winter. A native NYer back home in NY. All the best!

Look forward to your calls. ;)

[DeltaLover]

Great news... Lots of congratulations!

[castaway01]

Congratulations Travis!

[PaceAdvantage]

Hear hear! Way to go Travis! :ThmbUp:

[thespaah]

Fanstastic!!! Right where you should be!

[the little guy]

The only downside for him is that his office is fairly close to mine.

We're lucky to have him.

[outofthebox]

Congrats Travis! Maybe Andy can have you on as a guest on Talking Horses..

[onefast99]

Wonderful news Travis!

It was a pleasure listening to Travis today. I didn't recall him being this good. If it was my racetrack he'll be Durkin 's replacement instead of Imbriale 's helper.

[TravisVOX]

Thanks everyone... lots of fun being in the booth at Aqueduct!

[EMD4ME]

Very smooth and off to a wonderful start! Keep it up :)

[thaskalos]

I don't usually listen to announcers, and had missed Travis's race calls. But I heard him today because of this thread...and I thought he was GREAT! :ThmbUp:

[PaceAdvantage]

He's polished no doubt...very professional...he should definitely have a long career in this sport...I predict he is calling NYRA full time one day...

I've always thought he has a definite bit of Dave Johnson in his tone of voice

[DeltaLover]

Was it Travis who called yesterday's races?

Yes buddy

You're RIGHT! I do hear a similarity to Dave. Keep expecting him to break his tone and SCREAM 'AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME' lol

[DeltaLover]

Yes buddy

He was really cool :ThmbUp::ThmbUp:

I liked him repeating in the same race several times the term "OPENS UP"

Yeah.... especially if it's a horse you or I played !!! :lol:

If you really listened to Dave Johnson, you would KNOW that he actually did tone down ordinary races and saved that one for the feature or TV. Dave was a really good race caller at the Meadowlands.

Travis does a great job.

[TravisVOX]

Very appreciative of the kind words. Thanks everyone.

He should be calling nyra full time going forward.....as solid as it gets!!!

[Redbullsnation]

Didn't know Travis Stone was a member here. Kinda weird that he is the 3rd-stringer for NYRA :o

[Stillriledup]

Very appreciative of the kind words. Thanks everyone.

Great job i'm enjoying your calls! :ThmbUp:

[SandyW]

As good as it can be, great job Travis. Very enjoyable, a true pro.

[Tara73]

Very descriptive. Today, he mentioned a few horses running on their wrong lead.

[Tall One]

he really deserves a great job.


No doubt; even if I'll only hear his calls one day a year.

[PaceAdvantage]

Congrats to Travis! Not a bad gig... ;)

[Valuist]

Travis has replaced Collmus twice already. What's the chance of a hat trick down the line?

[TravisVOX]

Thank you, all! It's been a great year... beyond fortunate and excited about that first Saturday in May!!
