Jehan Malherbe is the top caller imvho...he calls without frills and even in close calls he usually gets it right although he "plays it safe" mostly by allowing the judge to confirm the finish.

The same situation arises with sports like soccer as well. The guest commentators are somethings so blatantly biased, it's actually a disgrace.

How are those Aussie cricket/rugby commentators ? The worst !
Our racing commentators are stars compared to Sweedish harness racing ! Nothing wrong with our boytjies well except maybe old Dumpie. Most entertaining though !
