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.
