Arc Coverage

Travis Stone · #1 10-01-2006, 09:55 AM

I’ve been trying to search and figure out who does the broadcasts for the Arc, who are these two guys that commentate and then race call? Are they the "track commentator?"

The 5th to 8th (Arc 7th) at Longchamps will be on TVG starting right now.

Also Youbet.com is taking wagers

Yea I'm on TVG now but prior they were showing a feed via Longchamp... 2 guys hosting, just wondering if they are the "track announcers" there or how it works.

I think the whole thing is produced by French Gallop. You can probably find out more from their website ( which is in French and English ). Of course, finding information at French racetracks isn't exactly easy, I went to three tracks in Paris and the only one that even had a tote board was Saint Cloud....and it wasn't in use.

I'm struggling to find the english version of their site... and I took french in high school. Where can I see the link?

These track announcers make Mike Battaglia look "decent".

They obviously aren't the track announcers as they are calling in English. I would guess this feed is probably from England.

As for the French Gallop site...I'll take a look.

Since you're always a yutz I'm glad you were able to point out my egregious error.

Funny, though, Travis had no problem finding the site even with my massive stupidity. Nice of you to help him out even further...you pathetic weasel.

I can't find English on the site either. I know they have an Arc write-up somewhere in English but I guess there may well not be an English translation of the site. Sorry.

But, hey, at least now you know the correct spelling.
