What is your favorite 'catch phrase' in T bred announcing circles?

[Stillriledup]

I used to love it when the old Arlington announcer said, "and heeeeeeeeeere they come spinning out of the turn"

I also love Mike Battaglia's "gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaining grooooooooooooound"!

My favorite Vic-ism is when he yells YESSSSS! at the wire.

Trevor's "ring up the register" is kind of annoying, especially when he uses it on a 3-5 shot. You don't ring up s**t at 3-5, maybe at 20-1 you can ring it up, but not 3-5.

Another one of my favorites was when Marshall Cassidy said "has the lead" and that was the end of the call, he would never call after the wire, once that winner hit the wire the call was over. Love Marshall.

I miss Phil Saltzman's "And they're not gonna get him today."

I like the Evangeline break, "Ils sont partis."

He doesn't use this one very often but I love Michael Wrona's "She's staying like a mother-in-law."

I love Wrona and his Wrona-isms!

I like when he announcers avoid the 'catch phrases' and are creative and spontaneous.

e.g. Dave Rodman's call for Miss Oil's victory on July 10th - her 3rd in a row

"Miss Oil can not be contained!"

I agree with you Stu, always prefer originality / spontaniety of a Tom Durkin of NYRA.

The only one that I kind of liked was Phil Salzman " and they're not going to catch him today "

When a contender is trailing the field, and is not in a hurry to make up ground, Trevor Denman will often say that the horse... "is a conspicuous last."

I also like when he says that a horse is winning..."with condescending ease."

Thats a good one.

Fans of this type of stuff are familiar with Larry Lederman who calls races on the east coast, he's the best at interjecting stuff like this into calls.

Maybe not exactly a catch-phrase, but I do like Denman's "____ lengths would cover them all..." It helps me interpret/confirm what I'm seeing on TV or through binocs.

I used 'catch phrase' in my title, but wasn't exactly sure it was catch phrases i was looking for. I wasn't sure what to call them, catch phrases seemed decent enough.
