John and his wife, Linda, have been married for 24 years and live in Leominster, Massachusetts, with their two Basset hounds, Marie and Antoinette. They have three grown children and five grandchildren. John honorably served six years in the United States Army Reserve at Fort Devens as a Military Police officer, achieving the rank of Sergeant. He recently retired from a successful career in the financial services industry.

John's passion for thoroughbred racing runs deep. Suffolk Downs in Boston, Massachusetts, was his home track until its closure in 2019, after which he shifted his focus to the NYRA circuit. His thoroughbred career began at Oakhurst Farm in Massachusetts, where he gained extensive experience in breeding, boarding, breaking, and foaling thoroughbreds.

Most recently, John helped manage a small stable with horses racing at NYRA, Monmouth, and Gulfstream Park. A lifelong racing fan, he fondly recalls rushing home at age 13 to watch the legendary Secretariat win the Belmont Stakes on his black and white television. John is incredibly excited to embark on this new
venture with Just Victory Stables and looks forward to sharing the exhilarating thoroughbred racing experience with all our
partners.
