Description:
Being the youngest of three siblings comes with its perks. Connecticut high school junior Ashley Capece knows all about it.
Before Ashley, 16, was born, her grandfather Michael Mellen had already named his racing operation BranJam Stables after Capece’s older brother Brandon and sister Jamie. As soon as Ashley was old enough to notice (and right about the time her siblings began to tease her about it) she was told she’d get the privilege of naming her grandfather’s horses. Crisis averted.
