As far as a technically marvelous call, in MHO Kurt Becker is the best I've ever heard.

Comically, Larry Lederman was in a class unto himself.

Ken Warkentin is fantastic, as was Sam...RIP.

Since you were so close with GA maybe you can answer the question the whole harness world wants the answer to besides the question of whether or not Drucker's hair is a wig.
Does GA dye his hair or is that shoe polish??

Does this means the races were scripted for drivers and others cashing tickets and wrestling??

So many good ones over the years to choose from. Jack Gallagher, John Hernan and Ken Warkentin among the best. Frank Salive may have the best voice. Larry Lederman made it the most fun.....except when my horse made a break.

Vance Cameron? Where is he from?

Used to announce Western Fair years ago until he was caught stealing over 30k from one of the teletheatres.

You are absolutely correct about him anticipating moves. I also think he makes a wager or two,just judging by some of the comments he has made in his race calls. Excellent announcer for decades.
