Favourite Commentators

[Tabbythecat]

I have to say Mark Johnson is great, seeing he is now calling for 6 months of the year at Churchill Downs, still get shivers down my spine when I hear his call of Best Mate winning @ Cheltenham Then you have Simon Holt who is also known for coming out with some great one-liners "this one stays all day, stays longer than the mother-in-law" Stuart Machin can always be called on for interesting commentaries "McCoy has a look through his legs and likes what he sees":nana And before you say OI you aint mentioned Richard Nelson Hoiles I have to agree once he gets revved up he goes nuts Malcom "the actor" Tomlinson made a howler during a race at Newcastle by calling the wrong horse as the winner, but since that has become a good racecaller Ian Bartlett when he does ATR coverage doesnt like talking very much especially to a certain Broadcaster of the year :D In Ireland Des Scahill is still streets ahead as when its excitement time Des goes ballistic, in saying that Jerry Hannon can always be called upon to go into overdrive Any other favourites?

Re: Favourite Commentators To be honest I don't take much notice of the commentators but a couple come to mind.........generally I more associate with the ones who I 'know' from being presenters as well as commentators....... So I like Enzo, just because he seems such a nice lad I like Hunty 'cos I listen to 5live a lot and I can't think of one offhand but when I've got the sound muted on the TV and the radio on I hear Hunty's call, then later see the reply on TV and think 'blimey, Hunty knocked spots off that commentary' Generally tho'..........I can't tell one from another.........I'm not paying that attention !........I'm watching the race !
