Chris and Lauren give best wishes to their favorite jockey Rachel Lavoy. She was visiting Monmouth after sustaining an injury.

Les Stickler is a "hands on" trainer that attributes his success to hard work and good help. He is aided by his father who lends experience and insight.

Carlos Nieto was aboard four consecutive Renpher Stable mounts, winning them all!!!!!

Who is Renpher?

Renpher is headed by our CEO, Bob Oliva. Bob grew up in Brooklyn, NYand now resides in Pa. While other kids were studying for High School exams, Bob was up late reading the Daily Racing Form. Bob aspired to become a jockey. He landed a job working for a top trainer at Belmont Park but outgrew his ambition.

Bob played a vital role in restoring fiber optics in lower NYC during the aftermath of 9/11. He was part of The Mayor's Task Force and received recognition for his sense of urgency and ability to deliver under the most adverse conditions. Read an excerpt from a speech given by The Honorable Michael Powell, Chairman of The FCC.

SPEECH

Bob offers 30 years of experience in the thoroughbred industry.

In 2002 Bob was eliminated from the Belmont Showdown handicapping contest. At the time of elimination, Bob was ranked 31st out of 5740 contestants! After elimination he landed at 341.

Bob enjoyed moderate success off the track in business. His love for thoroughbred racing coupled with his good fortune allowed him to create Renpher Stable. It has become an affordable means of becoming an owner.

"Nothing is more important to me than my family, but my horses are a close second!"

The word Renpher was created by Bob's wife Valerie. It is a combination of their two children LauREN and ChristoPHER. Lauren, since age 8, could recite pedigree information, while Chris as early as age 6, would have you convinced he is the next leading jockey of Monmouth Park.

Renpher Stable was designed to be the Oliva's racing stable. Due to the recent demand for Limited Partnerships, as well as constant requests from friends and family, Bob has designed a simple and fun way to join the action. We now have over 135 partners from states all over the country.

"You only live once! What are you waiting for?!"

Joining the Renpher team is Theresia Muller, better known to us as Agent 99. Theresia by trade, is a CPA. She is currently a Vice President of a Financial Planning Institution in Virginia. Theresia is directly involved in providing customized statements for each partner. She also happens to be one of our resident pedigree experts. Theresia joined Renpher Stable in early 2003. She is more than a partner. Agent 99, is called upon to handle several missions.

Rounding out the team is our trainer, Les Stickler, Jr. We sent him one horse in June of 2003. In his first start the horse won by 10 3/4 lengths. He has had all of our horses since then.

Our current philosophy has our horses stabled at Penn National. From Penn National we can ship to various venues including the high purse world of Charles Town. We have been fortunate to team up with Lester Stickler Jr, based at Penn National. We have had amazing success with our horses under his care.

The Stickler - Renpher Stable Combination boasted

7 wins in 12 starts in 2003!!!!!

The good news is our success didn't end in 2003. We have been maintaining respectable statistics. Check our stats on "Stable News".

Decisions will be made on a horse by horse basis as to where they are best suited to race.
