Robert Geller’s life in horse racing has filled his passport with stamps from all over the world.

Born in Birmingham, England, Geller’s family emigrated to Melbourne, Australia, where his passion for the game started to flourish.

After landing his first official announcing job at Wangaratta in Victoria in 1984, Geller’s race-calling talents have taken him to Hong Kong, Washington State (Emerald Downs), New Mexico (Sunland Park), and Toronto, where he has held his post as the voice of Woodbine since 2015.
