They deftly handle large fields, and are much better at calling close finishes.

I could list 20 North American announcers that could kick the crap out of any 20 horse field and nail every finish if in the right booth.
With respect to Trevor, Michael, Peter and Robert. All very talented callers. Why are American racing fans intoxicated with accents? Why are callers from other places better just because they do something we could also do well if giving the opportunity?
Kurt Becker could call a 50 horse field and never miss one.
Where's the love for the yanks?
