Artspeak won his New Jersey Sires Stakes final with au- thority for Ontario native Scott Zeron. “He did it all on his own,” said Zeron of the colt’s three-length victory in 1:48.4. NA Cup eligibles In The Arsenal and Betting Exchange, who finished on the wire together in the $300,000 Art Rooney Pace on May 30, are also sitting out the week but trips to the North America Cup are on their agendas. Two notable undefeated sophomore males this season, the six-for-six Rise Up Now and the three-for-three Lost For Words— both trained by Brian Brown—are racing in Pennsylvania Sires Stakes at The Meadows this weekend since they are not eligible to the Somebeachsomewhere or the North America Cup. The nine-for-nine Wiggle It Jiggleit, an unexpected sensa- tion this season, won in Indiana Sires Stakes action on May 30 and is also getting a week off. He turned in a 1:49.3 win in a $75,000 Sires Stakes final on May 30, splashing his way to victory over the track that had suffered from heavy rain. With Wiggle It Jiggleit drawing post seven and the formi- dable Freaky Feet Pete to the outside in post nine, getting the right trip was key to keeping “Wiggle It’s” winning streak intact. When the wings of the gate folded, Montrell Teague had a clear path to the front and easily placed Wiggle It Jig- gleit on the lead while Freaky Feet Pete never saw the rail. HarnessRacing Weekend Preview Commanding the field through fractions of :26, :54.2 and 1:21.1, the race set up for a dash to the finish.

Drennan was a news reporter and commercial photographer. He worked at Roosevelt Field (located in what is now East Garden City) from c.1927 through c.1951, except during the war years of 1942-1945. After Roosevelt Field closed in 1951, he moved his business, Drennan Photo Service, to a two-story building that he purchased on First St. in Mineola. Drennan started out as an aviation photographer and was acquainted with and photographed a number of famous figures from early American aviation history, including Glenn Curtiss, Douglas “Wrong Way” Corrigan, and Charles Lindbergh. In 1927, he photographed Lindbergh taking off on his historic solo non-stop flight from Roosevelt Field to Le Bourget Field in Paris. In 1938, in the week before his famed transatlantic flight from Floyd Bennett Field (Brooklyn, N.Y.) to Ireland, it was reported that Corrigan borrowed Drennan’s New York Times every day to check the weather report. Over the years, Drennan also specialized in construction worksite “progress” photographs for architects and contractors; was hired by New York City newspapers to cover Long Island stories; and, photographed and reported on virtually any type of newsworthy event, including the Vanderbilt Cup races, for newspapers like Newsday and the Long Island Press.

  • The Horse Racing Industry in Delaware
    11/18/2019 The Horse Racing Industry in Delaware Mark Davis A Little History on the Sport Horse racing is one of the oldest of all sports, and its basic concept has undergone virtually no change over the centuries 12th Century (1101 to 1200) - The origins of modern racing began in this century when English knights returned from the Crusades with swift Arabian horses. 1530 - The earliest records of racing in England are recorded at York.
