Overall, I thought Trevor was fine and he'll only be better next year.
Trevor has been working on the sidelines for many breeders cups so being on natinal tv shouldn't of been a problem.Remember until this year these races were on regular tv so nobody had to have cable or satellite to view them.I think in a case like this besides needing a good announcers you also need an ENTERTAINER which Durkin is a ham at as well as a guy like Vic Stauffer.You know someone who has a little SCHTICK also.
