CALL FROM THE HEART: THE JOHN TAPP STORY
The proud tradition of racecalling has a special place in our history and Australia continues to produce the finest racecasters in the world. Rising to the pinnacle of this noble profession was the inimitable John Tapp.
In a magnificent career spanning 33 years, Tapp's vivid descriptions have echoed across the country, and that famous honeyed voice has melted many a racing heart.
Taking his place alongside the all-time greats such as Ken Howard, Bert Bryant, Bill Collins and Des Hoysted, Tapp successfully mastered that elusive mix of accuracy and entertainment. These qualities are captured here for all time in some of the most memorable calls in Australian turf history.
In a stirring tribute to Tapp and his colleagues, "Call From the Heart" relives some of the finest moments in trackside theatre, as champions were called into the record books, stride for glorious stride.
