As much as a track announcer wants a certain horse to win or lose (whether he is betting the race or representing a jockey in the race), I dont think he can change the outcome of a race. So what does it matter if he is or isnt bias? And theres always that great invention known as the mute button. Seriously, at least Vic gets the names of the horses right. While Tom Durkin is a fantastic voice in this game, he seems to constantly miss call the names of the horses and hardly ever gets criticized for it, nor does he for not picking up the moves of eventual winners as quickly as a guy like Vic or Trevor Denman consistently do. I like all 3 very much (Vic, Trevor & Tom). No matter how hard the track announcer is pulling for a horse (they all do), he cant help them win a race!
