Yeah Durkin takes the winter off thats true, but AQ spring, Belmont fall and spring and saratoga is alot more working days than the two churchill meets, which ad up to 90 or so. Plus there are a ton more G1 events in NY than there are at Churchill.

Luke called the race on track and on churchill's simulscast signal and i think for radio as well.
