Michelle Yu on HRTV
Wondered what happened to her. Was a mainstay at TVG. Wasn't she ?
Anyway, she's on HRTV this afternoon.

She was reporter/analyst on the Santa Anita house feed during their meet and obviously they must have liked her and is now on HRTV.

If I recall correctly, after she left TVG, or TVG left her (dunno which it was) she went to a sports network--Fox? ESPN?--and did field reporting during football.

I always found her to be somewhat of a goof. Always giggling.

She's improved since she went to a network that's NOT filled with clowns, a network that actually takes horseplaying seriously.

Good for her. She had a boatload of potential but was given no direction at all.

BUMP
I give Michelle credit - she has come a long way as an announcer.
Light years better than she was on TVG a few years back.
Personally, I find nothing more annoying than an announcer who stumbles and stammers and pauses constantly....that includes race callers too 
Michelle is doing a nice job imo

I've seen her in the paddock at Santa Anita doing interviews, sometimes she has a Q and A session with a racing personality and lets the crowd ask questions. The one time i saw her interview a jock she was totally prepared, knew the game, asked the right questions, had all the answers from what the audience asked, she did a fantastic job. She knew more about racing than i had originally thought she did.

The head guys at TVG never did anything to help any of their employees, they have a different agenda.

She is becoming one of my favorite on air personality. Really prepared and has a great knowledge of the game. HRTV has the best talent for the horse players by far.

She's my favorite along with Aaron V. and and Jeff Siegel. She handicaps well, backs up her picks with good reasons..and she's darn good lookin!

Once they got away from the frat boy mentality at TVG all have gone on to better things. And surprisingly they all have talent.
