Default Fair Grounds seeks racing analyst

"Seeing as Katie Mikolay Gensler will be out on maternity leave this winter, Fair Grounds is seeking an experienced Racing Analyst for its 142nd Thoroughbred Racing Season (Nov. 22, 2013 to March 30, 2014). The job is much more than just previewing each race from the paddock on our simulcast signal, although that is a big part of it. The Racing Analyst also writes an analysis of every card for the website, co-hosts the Fair Grounds Today morning show, makes regular appearances on HRTV, engages fans via social media and serves as a citywide ambassador for Fair Grounds and horse racing. To apply for the position, e-mail a cover letter, resume and clips of past work to Fair Grounds Vice President & General Manager Eric Halstrom (eric.halstrom@fgno.com). Please note this is a seasonal position for one meet only, as we expect to welcome Katie back in November 2014!"

I love the logo and appreciate the endorsement, but I'm too busy.

We have some other very good candidates for it who post here.

At least look into it. You'd be in a city that embraces characters, not to mention that Fair Grounds' rich history would be of interest to you.

Seriously though...how isn't he an on air handicapper/analyst at some racetrack? I mean the work he does is top notch, and that's just from the little bit you see Doug post now and then. If he actually was interested in it...I can't see how a track wouldn't hire him.

EDIT:Nevermind
