Jack is well passed his prime and can’t really keep up anymore.  But good for him.  He has been there a long time.  I thought he was a good race caller in his day!   tmbz1

Onething for Jack is that for over 40 years hes been announcing and helps support the purse account by gambling. I can't count on my hand how many nights he has missed.

While indeed he is past his prime, he “ sees” how a race develops, which not too many of his brethren do.
