It was indeed Cox Plate Day.
Winx won. The only race I watched Live on TV.
Saturday I had Radio coverage of Pete Earlys program.
I Relied on "Pictures being painted "as a race progressed.
Audio.
The marvellous race commentaries from
Mark McNamara , Aaron White and Sir Bruce SHERWIN did that so well.
Replay their calls. Weren't they Colourful, accurate and with xcellent voice modulation?
On Sunday I watched the replays. First time seeing and their calls were so accurate as to what was happening.
Aaron White at Ellerslie, with the rail out 10 metres. R 5 he spotted Crafty Jess .
Mark with his great calls on Avantage, Ever Loyal.
Bruce Sherwin had never called at Trentham.
( I did verify that tonight ,with him) .
Bruce's Sherwin's race calls ,
which are too seldom heard, are a blessing.
