In Tribute:
Dr. Joe Rauch
November 01, 2009 News of Dr. Joe’s sudden death Saturday morning hit like a fist to the jaw. Racing lost one of its most ardent fans, and those of us who went racing or to the sales with Joe know he was one of the warmest, most generous men ever to love a thoroughbred.
Anytime Capt. Candyman Can raced, Joe included everyone he knew in the excitement, and no one could be around him and not be caught up in the joy he and Dave Zell were having with this gutsy gelding.
