Winning Ponies

From the start, Larry Collmus had a one-track mind. A race announcer, he would be. As a kid, he would watch the horses run at Timonium, then rush home to Ellicott City and re-create what he'd seen and heard. Some people sing in the shower, said Sally LaHart, Collmus' sister. Larry would call races in there. In high school, Collmus amused his friends by recollecting races that had been run the day before. Larry will tell us how he got the horse racing bug and how he became the voice that called the Breeders' cup races this year. In the second segment Joe Nevills will talk about this past week's Breeders' Cup races and the record-breaking sales at Fastig-Tipton and Keeneland.
