Kenneth Ross of Pennsylvania has a horse entered in the Hambletonian, which I'm sure you know to be the most prestigious event in harness racing. The horse's name? Tom Ridge.
The horse used to be named Sixty One until the Pittsburgh native bought it a year ago. "I worked with Tom Ridge when he was governor," Ross said by telephone from his home in Pittsburgh on Tuesday. "When we bought the horse and I saw what a fine specimen it was, I said we have to name him after good people, and there is no better people than Tom Ridge."
