For the Derby, my biggest requirements besides the standard 'not confusing the horses with other horses' is a good hearty 'and they're off' or something and then a thundering 'and down the stretch they come.' In fact if he can just get the 2nd one, I'm good. I'll take "and away they go" at the beginning too because that's grown on me.
He should try that "Boogity, boogity, boogity ... let's go racing" thing.

Actually, I think MJ is pretty darn good. Tough shoes to fill, but I like this guy's style and voice.
