That’s right Boom,

I had forgotten Bob was in The Grifters. (Excellent movie BTW) Bob was not overly flashy, but he had one of those voices that were made for race calling and had a great flow to his calls.

Larry C. is doing a terrific job, but Bob will always have honored place in the hearts of many fans of Monmouth Park.
