So was Lukas.

Van Berg is 1-for-82 this year -- and he hasn't won at 10% or better since 1998.

He's living in the past.

Van Berg has a graded stakes losing streak that would make Lukas blush.

I hate to say it, but he's not much of a commentator either.

Tom Amoss is by far the best commentator of the trainers I've watched. Van Berg is pretty bad.

John Veitch was a good commentator.
