Didn't Rozema apply to be a judge, but didn't get accepted.
Maybe Reid got the coveted judge's role instead. 
Best gig in harness racing.

Over the last few years Rozema has bounced around....was the manager of Grand River Raceway at one point..left there to train for an Agco job, but left there to return to his Weg job...analyst and host and now, seemingly the new racecaller at Weg......although no formal announcement has been made...and Rallis will be Waples, sidekick in June..after that who knows

I like Chad & think he's a decent handicapper. He doesn't always pick the favorite. The show improved tremendously by getting rid of that clueless woman.

If they got rid of Randy Waples, who can't handicap his way out of a paper bag it would be even better.

Randy thinks like a horseman.  He has no gambling instinct at all.

Tonight 10th race, you get double Waxman and double Barrington. Reminds me of
that Mcqueen smelly race with two going way faster than their times on the sheet
 last week. Wonder which one of these 'worked the best' this week. ;D

pretty much agree about his handicapping

but he does bring a perspective that isnt from the bettors viewpoint

sometimes shoes, sometimes possible reasons for layoffs, personally knowing most of the Canadian trainers, etc

trip analysis, explaining fractions that most wouldnt agree on, etc

terrible if he bets no doubt

it should be Randy and Rallis year round--and never let Blowe on the harness set again, she is the pits

what happened to Monique? tbreds I assume?

Randy is a funny guy. Him and the 'baby' Greek together are worth the price of admission.

I don't listen to or read any of them. If they knew wtf they were doing, they would be firmly ensconced at the $100 window. 2 cents

Racetracks feel the need to have women as on-air analysts whether they're qualified or not because they think it might attract more male viewers.

claiming something off The Cullen clan can be dangerous....but Henry  chose that one over the horse he won 3 in a row with....other horses in that race may offer a better price

After Moreau was suspended  Waxman.s barn laid low with very little success....but now that its kinda quieted down ,his horses have been heating up....hhmm
also young Malik Smith  an employee of Moreau claimed a few and was successful..but now that Moreau is gone his figures have nosedived

Randy went in to very specific descriptive detail on Saturday night about a shit he saw a horse take in warm ups

yes--he said it was a watery evacuation and that can be a concern

he is not a bettor but has plenty of insights on other aspects-
