I definitely welcome the return of Peter tonight to what I consider to be an ideal broadcast team perfectly suited for a relaxing evening of unwinding and watching races.
To be fair to the much-maligned substitute (Bobby ??), it had seemed to me recently that his calls had gotten better from the point when he was thrust into the position. I went back and watched a few of those old ones before watching last night's card, and Monday's calls were definitely leaps and bounds over the earlier efforts. Still a few stumbles, but I thought the "can you see the race if you close your eyes and just listen" test had gotten to a passing grade. YMMV. I know *I'd* have trouble calling a two-horse race well, so appreciate anyone who gives it their best.
