Or share an opinion about the young lady's skill set.
If I could offer her one bit of advice it would be to stop tweeting at the start of each day's racing card.
It feels like a solicitation of dramatic points of view.
Having been in her shoes myself. MANY MANY years ago.
I tried to lay low and try to get better every day. Under the radar.

I believe I first heard your calls at the dearly departed Hollywood Park. After what my friends suffered through in the most of the decade or so prior you were a welcome relief. I could not imagine you struggling. Do you have any recordings of those many, many years ago or links? That would give hope for this lady, and maybe get some of the overly critical to back off. I am seeing some ever slight improvement, there is some hope.

You now have a ranking system?
Parx has NEVER gotten this much publicity, and all publicity is good publicity.

I have to agree. Her call of race 4 was dreadful. Twice, she just gave up trying to identify horses off the lead, then after an awkward pause went back to the ones up front. She's also not able to distinguish between a horse launching a big rally in the stretch and one that's really not going to threaten the leader but she gets excited about its chances anyway.

I think the muddy silks and saddle cloths caused that, but no argument on that being the worst.

She did blame the conditions during the call, but it does kind of go back to the main issue with the hire which is her lack of experience.
At the moment her best calls are at a level where she needs her worst calls to be, and when things go wrong they really go wrong.
