Tom Durkin "No Need to Call It" - Commentator

[secretariat888]

Wow that horse starts fast

[suprsonickath]

Was Arrrrr in this race?

[ZenyattaFan4ever]

the 1973 guy was Chick Anderson and he WAS great. Tom Durkin is great, too ... hardly ever waits for the photo, he'll just call it.

[tucsonagent]

Ah, that was Commentator, folks. A VERY good racehorse. And very fast.

[birdatplay]

living legend!!tom d.

[Baskerville22]

Any one of 20 Australian race-callers are better than this bloke

[queenluciaa]

@Baskerville22

You mean with their lack of hyperbole, and a rather annoying accent? Yeah, no.

[xxcrystlecityxx]

lol if he ever called ruffians races hed be like at the top of the stretch "yea theres defenantly no need to call this one ladies and gentlemen" lol

[bluefoxstudio13]

wasn't even a race.

[sedro32]

no the guy with the accent that called zenyattas 2008, 2009, 2010 BC is the best.

THIS IS UN BE LIEV ABLE!

WHAT A PERFORMANCE, ONE WE'LL NEVER FORGET.

that was epic. and she has that royal sounding english accent

[samynonthegreen]

@sedro32 The guy from those BCraces is an African American from South Africa. That is not an English accent royal cockney or otherwise. He says the same things over and over. He has about 12 different cliches that he uses over and over. This guy Durkin has a new call for every race. He is truly brilliant.

[gajdijaa]

@sedro32 or durkin at the 2001 kentucky derby

[KDUB2424]

Tom Durkin and Dan Loiselle from Woodbine are the 2 best. Durkin in a photo finish tho.

[Stamolka1986]

My favorite track announcer! He's one of the things that makes New York racing so darn great!

[Sportscaster91]

He would of been fired in Australia for not calling the last 200

[meandhorses]

lol i met corey nakatani... well twice now... and joe talamo and aaron gryder and ya blah blah blah but its funny listening to their racing stories

[RaintreeRagtime]

@DissapearingBoy88: Lol! Yes that was probably the best bit :P Like they're just an afterthought.

[handicapping]

denman is like watching paint dry. hes bland and boring durkin is the man

[fetisov02]

durkin fucking sucks

[buyystocks]

@fetisov02  yea right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gypsylover96]

@fetisov02 u suck!!

[richcitykid4]

Trevor Denmen is by far the annoucer

[badumpy]

listen to the call..commenator..commentator.­..so it commentator...commentator....c­ommentator....commentaor...he sucks

[koalabby]

@badumpy Commentator was first. Obviously he would be saying Commentator. He's winnning.

[badumpy]

i stand by my comment

[ilovebigbrown]

ok just to let you know tom durkin is THE BEST=] yeah

[gotch09]

How in the hell do they come up with some of the names of these horses? Sometimes,they're just hiliarious.

[10shutt]

the guy who called the belmont stakes in 1973 was the best.

[ickiepoo]

The 1973 Belmont was incredible; have you heard the 2007 Belmont when Secretariat's great-grandaughter Rags to Riches won? It's fantastic!

[db0255]

@10shutt chic anderson?

[10shutt]

@db0255

I think so.He made a race that was over by the time the gates opened very interesting. This guy gave up " no need to call it" and went and swallowed two burgers.

[xosoul6]

@10shutt

73 Belmont call gives me Chills.....however I wonder what Durkin would have done with it???? He is easily the must brilliant caller ever..try 2009 KY Oaks or Easy Goer in NY

[jimmys50]

tom durkin sucks

[mrleroy1966]

why don't people agree with you. Cause I do. Durkin sucks. His calls are terrible and yet every year he gets to call the Triple Crown Races.

[DisappearingBoy88]

No need to call it! ... ...

[farfieldacresracing]

I ♥ Commentator. (: He is so beautiful. Too bad he's gelded.

[Greatalmightyqueen]

[Curlinroxs]

[javaqwe]
