DORBROOK PARK, site of the former FESTOON FARM, Colt's Neck, New Jersey. Not much has been discovered about FESTOON FARM, although it was apparently named after the thoroughbred horse, imported *Festoon. The inscription on his stone marker marker reads proudly, "A grand horse. He always tried." The horse Sailmaker has not been identified. There is a dog buried here as well. --AP |
