A New Voice At Fort Erie Race Track

On February 25th, Fort Erie Race Track officially named Mike Dimoff their new track announcer for the upcoming 2011 season. Previously, Dimoff has been a race caller at several thoroughbred race tracks in North America, including Northlands Park in Edmonton, Turf Paradise (Arizona), Bay Meadows (California) and the Fair Grounds in New Orleans.

"It's a privilege to get the opportunity to call at a track as historic as Fort Erie," said Dimoff. "I can't wait to see what the 2011 season has in store."

Along with his duties as The Fort's race caller, Dimoff will also become a part of the daily handicapping show alongside racing analyst Elissa Blowe.

"Mike will be taking over the tip sheets this season and he will also be passing along his handicapping knowledge to our racing fans," said Blowe.

Opening day for Fort Erie's 114th season of live racing is set for Saturday, May 7th. First race post time is 12:45 p.m.
