shane bacon was the answer. he wasnt a bad announcer. he called the oxford fair about three years ago. and to cornishcommish i just dont think mike is a good announcer. my feeling on comparing to roger huston comes from mike's constant wager now comets and calling for a win photo. sounds like roger a few years back. mikes also very loud. and i did say mikes an ok guy, just his style. yes he does call the right horse. i also totally agree about all the other maine boys. llyod cant call the right horse in a one horse field. sweeny is like fingernails on a chalkboard and bill ellis would be ok if, thats if he just called a race. i dont listen to announcers too often. gabe from pompano is pretty good. plainridge lenny i think used to be ok, not too bad.
