Her dad, Googoo Gaagaa was a harness racing world champion with wicked speed. Her mom, Callmemza, won multiple DSBF Finals. Her sister, Callmegaga was a one-time MDSS stakes record holder and her grandfather, Great George Two, while quirky, could fly.
So it shouldn’t be much of a surprise that Call Me Goo is a talented horse. Tuesday night at Rosecroft, the four-year-old started her new year in fine fashion romping to victory in the $25,900 MDSS Open for 4 & 5-year-old trotters in 1:54.2.
Jason Skinner trains the winner for Graham Grace Stables and the mare was bred by longtime local Maryland stalwart Bib Roberts.
The mark set a new MDSS mare trotting record and eclipsed the Rosecroft standard for four year old trotting mares by 4/5th of a second which had been held by Wind Glider since 2003.
Tim Tetrick, who won with her at Hoosier in October, was in the bike for the record setting performance.
“I really like her (at Hoosier) and it’s one of the reasons they asked me to come down and it worked out that I could. She’s got some really big things on her plate for this year and hopefully she can compete in some of those big races,” Tetrick said.
