Winning Ponies

Pete Aiello is our 1st guest. When we last spoke to him he had secured the high profile job of track announcer at Oaklawn Park. The news broke last week that Pete was leaving that position to take the place of Larry Collumus who vacated his post at the premiere meet at Gulfstream Park. In addition to numerous graded stakes races, Pete will now be calling the world's richest race when Gulfstream premieres the 12 million Pegasus Stakes in January. Our 2nd guest is DRF.com handicapping editor Dan Illman. He will talk about the continued success of California Chrome, the amazing Songbird - who refused to be buried at the 'Graveyard of Champions' and then examine the top contenders in the 600,000 Jim Dandy G2: the 350,000 Alfred G. Vanderbilt G1 and the 250,000 Bowling Green Hcp G2.
