Default Surprised no one has mentioned the racecalls at Oaklawn

and how much they are improved. I am generally not a fan and I guess anything would have been an improvement from Wallace, but Mir man has done a pretty good job there.

haven't heard him since the day we went up there-much improved over the past, that's for sure.

I was thinking during the running of the Smarty Jones(?) when they all lined up across the track that it would have been painful had Wallace had the call.

Frank has done and OUTSTANDING job. Each day you can hear him becoming more and more comfortable.

Oaklawn made an excellent hire.
