Delaware Park has named Joshua Brown as its new track announcer following the retirement of John Curran at the end of last season. Curran served as the announcer at Delaware for 37 years.

Brown served as the paddock handicapper at this season’s Delaware meet. He has worked in the racing industry for nearly 20 years and was the announcer and television host at Presque Isle Downs prior to coming to Delaware. He has also held management roles at varying tracks.

“[Joshua] did a fantastic job as the paddock/TV host last year and we are very much looking forward to him assuming the role as the new track announcer,” John Mooney, the track’s executive director of racing, said in a press release.
