IMO the commentator should be impartial and not commentate from his tickets or for his mates. You should call the race for all punters, trainers and owners, not just the connections of the favourite.
After every race there will always be more unhappy people than happy people. Singing a song about the winner feels like an in your face insult for the losers especially in a close finish.
Enthusiasm is good, but we don't hear the same enthusiasm when a long suffering trainer or owner win with a long shot.
Well said. BB should keep it simple and call the race and stop sucking up to people,we all know they good for the game!!
He has a lot of very good attributes, enthusiasm is tops. Keep personal opinions out!
