pretty sure you'll still hear it from Chamberlain.
Also, no news yet on who will end up replacing Loiselle at Woodbine when he retires at the end of May.

Wow! with all of the coordination and what-have-you required to pull off all of those changes, you would expect there was some professional help involved.
Did some one call a Catholic archbishop or two for some help?

Correct me if I'n wrong but the only announcer who hasn't made a move up (while employed) the ladder is Dave Rodman from the Maryland circuit. He performs his job well imo.
Haven't heard anything about Vic Stauffer wonder if he put in an application for Woodbine.
While it would be a major move give Dawn Lupol a big shot at Woodbine. There are only a rare few who could work harder than her in the business. There might be a few bumps in the road but being a Canadian also means she could have the gig for a very long time. This is an industry that breaks gender barriers quicker than others I really would like to see her get it.

Any chance Woodbine brings in Don Cherry from Hockey Night in Canada to call the races?
Probably wouldnt get one horse's name right but he would let you know which horses are gutless or wimps.

It would have been nice if Mr. Stauffer was on the fair circuit but that may interfere with his blue gig.

The guy from Calder should have a job somewhere if he wants it imo.

I don't like dissing on any of those guys, but if changes happen at a the track or two I might quit muting the sound as soon as they spring the gates. One (who shall remain nameless) in particular...

The announcers at Evangeline Downs have been using "Ils son partis" for as long as I can remember. And that's a very long time.

Actually whomever you're speaking of isn't nameless. You've just chosen to not write his name in your post.
