Do You Remember R.J?

I went to see him at Calder this weekend, and according to his trainer he is doing well and fairly close to making his first start. He is still not officially named, but look at the name selections they chose... (see if any name stands out to you)

Name Claim
Joe P. Ville
Rejected
Name of person without required writing (see rules 6F6 & 6F7)

Name Claim
Papa Joe
Rejected
Similar to name already in use (Pappa Joe)

Name Claim
Joe Par
Rejected
Name of person without required writing (see rules 6F6 & 6F7)

Too bad it was rejected!! That would have been pretty neat.

*For non-family members- Papa Joe is what we call our grandfather.

For Those Of You Who Haven't Visited In A While...(Ahem!)

This is the new (not really so new) shed for the boats and golf cart.

Perfect Circle Farm News

What's Your Hurry (Junie) won the 5th race last night at Mountaineer Park. His sister, NE Given Sunday, races tomorrow in MSW at Suffolk Downs. And not to be left out, brother #3, Catch Rikki, had the fastest 1/2 mile work from the gate at Calder on Saturday.

I just got the business cards that Kara made for me in yesterdays mail. Aren't they nice?

Certain Circles

This site is a tribute to my old racehorse, Certain Circles. I'm sure his breeders at Cotswold Farm will be glad to hear that Circles lived a good long life in retirement at Perfect Circle Farm. He had to be euthanized on June 30th, 2006, because of the infirmities of old age. He was 21 years old and had been retired since he was 8. I secured ownership of him when he was 7 (for $1) and pretty beat up at that point. He raced 8 times for me, getting four wins, three seconds, and a third. He was a crotchety old horse with a lot of personality. He learned to stick out his tongue to beg for carrots. He had the heart of a champion and a strong desire to compete. There are still Graded Stake Winners being produced in his immediate family including his "neice" Sharp Lisa. He will be missed dearly.
