On today's drf.com there is an article about former jockeys becoming expert racing announcers. In it, the author states that Johnny Sellers would need to down two Heinekens to get thru the coverage, the article goes on to talk about Charlsie Cantey, who coincidentally I usually needed FOUR Heinekens to listen to her.

From what I recall from my youthful days Charlsie was quite knowledgeable. Always enjoyed her prerace comments , she knew her stuff!
