Don't get the frank love. Dude sounds disappointed at the end of every race he calls.

I tend to agree with this. He's perfectly serviceable and can hold his own, but short of the marathon calls where he does impressions, they are rather vanilla and have a tendency to ramp downward toward the finish.

Not sure whether he is interested in being a full time race caller or not, but the guy that does the pre-race handicapping at Remington, Chris Kotulak certainly has the enthusiasm for the job and has substituted for the regular race caller, at Remington on occasions. I think he would make a good race caller for Oaklawn.

I know Fairgrounds & Arlington aren't chopped Liver, but Dooley is a guy to me, that deserves some kind of mainstream, big league gig. He's freakin dynamite.

Jersey Shore in the Summer and New Orleans in the Winter would be a nice gig.

You might want to adjust your list, Trevor is still calling @ Del Mar . Plus is Vic really active since he is not calling any races? I think Vic is on some type black-ball list, otherwise how could you explain why he is not calling races somewhere?
