“Trevor is second to none among the world’s race callers,” said Norby Williamson, Executive Vice President of Studio and Remote Production. “We are extremely pleased to have him in such an important role on our Breeders’ Cup coverage.”
Denman will work with hosts Chris Fowler, and Kenny Mayne, analysts Jerry Bailey and Randy Moss as well as reporters Hank Goldberg, Jeannine Edwards, Joe Tessitore and others.
