Vance Cameron definitely deserves it for the energy and enthusiasm he puts into his race calls on PEI.

Doug Arthur, HOF. LOL

May as well put Just Arthur in there with him - solely based upon his looks.

Energy and enthusiasm, to be sure. While some find him grating, I find him entertaining and accurate. And kudos to Charlottetown and Summerside for no post time drag. With 45 seconds to go, the horses line up behind the gate, and the race goes off ON TIME.

Goliath Bayama?

Would be interesting to know what sort of drugs the Fillion Crime Family was using back in the day for this horse.

Why does Gregg McNair's name not come up for this Award.
He runs a successful, hands on operation as a trainer and owner for over 40 years.
That's impressive.

Cant believe the Sowers crew wasnt nominated for the most beard trainers, cobalt positives and black boxes under the beard trainers. Quite the list of accomplishments for that last name. Canadian HOF would be very deserving
