Hello and welcome to a new podcast from The Jockey Club and In the Money Media.

In this first episode, hosts Shannon Kelly and Peter Thomas Formatale are joined by The Jockey Club’s Associate Registrar Lori Johnson, to discuss the process of registering a thoroughbred. Then Jaime Roth, of LNJ Foxwoods, drops by to discuss the “method behind the madness” of her naming process with details about her love of familial lines, pop culture, art and sport all become evident in the names she chooses. She has 150 names on reserve and runs us through some of her favorites. Finally, Tom Durkin takes the story full circle, and tells us how the name on paper comes alive in his legendary race calls.
