I like Denman. I would also prefer to hear the fractions if I had a choice. Durkin has been geezing for a few years now, but I do enjoy his calls when he gets them right. I'll never forget when he miscalled Birdstone's Travers win in 2004...
"In the darkness at Saratoga, Birdstone has won the 135th BELMONT STAKES!!!" What????? That was ridiculously embarrassing. It's actually still on the video archives of NYRA, I just listened to it again.
