Definitely yelled stop the race

"Hide the wire!" When my closer is coming and I'm running out of real estate

The worst is when I am yelling for my horse to just be on the screen!

For whatever reason I'm usually silent for most of the running until somewhere near the last five-sixteenths if a horse I've played looks to be getting involved and likely to be a player I just bellow out "ON WITH THE (number in spanish, ie CINCO)!" But I try to time it for a quiet moment when it is most disruptive if possible.

You're right! This was one of my few vocal gestures I do (when I rarely go to the track) but I plan to change this now to "Make It Official!"
or "Finish Like This!"

I usually don't say much if I'm winning. The only time I get vocal is when I think the jockey is not doing what he is supposed to be doing on the horse I bet. I will say "what is this MFer doing, he's strangling the horse or in a route race he sends the horse to a quarter in 22. I want people to know when I'm losing not winning. Just a quirk of mine.

I don't yell at the screens or mimic the jockey's whipping motions...but I will at times mumble to myself: "What has my money done to me, and I treat it so badly?".

Sitting at the club house at Turf Paradise last BC, one of the guys I was sitting next to mention this:
"In the middle of a race, I yelled 'stop the race' once, my friend said 'okay' and turned off the TV."

This is why we need to scream "Stop the race" sometimes. Because IMHO, this jock went from a hand ride to no ride which gave the horse the impression that it's time to stop working.

I've been known to yell "Give me a longshot! Give me a longshot!" when I have a part wheel tri with an all for 3rd and my key horses for 1st and 2nd are drawing away from the rest of the field making the camera angle focus on them instead of for 3rd.

The guys on Tvg yell SHADOW and I know I yelled that before tvg was even invented. The camera guy refuses to pan back and all you can see and hope for is a shadow to appear as you see the shadow before the horse many times.

SHADOWWWWW!!!
