(Sunday, Oct. 30, 2016) – Whitham Thoroughbreds LLC ’s McCraken sat just off a swift pace, angled wide coming around the far turn and took command at the top of the stretch to win Sunday’s fourth running of the $83,470 Street Sense Stakes by a dazzling 3 ¾ lengths on opening day of Churchill Downs’ 21-day Fall Meet. The opening day card was billed as the 12 th annual “Stars of Tomorrow I” with each of the 10 races devoted to hopeful 2- year-old prospects that have aspirations of trail-blazing their way to next year’s Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands and Longines Kentucky Oaks. Over the years, the event helped launched the careers of 48 future Grade I winners and 31 millionaires , including 2010 Kentucky Derby champ Super Saver . McCraken just might be one of the sport’s next stars. Trained by Ian Wilkes and ridden by Brian Hernandez Jr. , McCraken clocked one mile over a fast track in a swift 1:35.55, which easily eclipsed Coastline’s 2013 stakes record of 1:36.77. Speedmeister , the odds-on 2-5 favorite, lived up to his name and set a quick opening quarter of :22.73, a half in :45.89 and three-quarters in 1:10.78 just one length in front of Singing Bullet who tracked in second with Balandeen another 1 ½ lengths behind in third.

  • The History of Oaklawn Park
    The History of Oaklawn Park 1900s Desiring to build a track closer to downtown, John Condon and Dan Stuart, who also ran Southern Club and Turf Exchange, a popular downtown Hot Springs night spot, and brothers Louis and Charles Cella of St. Louis formed the Oaklawn Jockey Club in 1904. Celebrated Chicago architect Zachary Taylor Davis is hired to design Oaklawn’s glass-enclosed, heated grandstand – among the first of its kind in the country. The grandstand reportedly seated 1,500 people and cost $500,000. Davis designed Wrigley Field, the longtime home of the Chicago Cubs, a decade later. Feb. 15, 1905 – The inaugural meet opens and runs through March 18. 1910s March 11, 1916 – Owner Louis A. Cella returns racing to Oaklawn after nine years 1 of political uncertainty in Arkansas. Cella, from St. Louis, was a bookmaker, horseman and financier and started running tracks, both in his hometown and in New Orleans. He later joined his brother, Charles J. Cella in operating Douglas Park and Latonia Race Course in Kentucky. For a time, they challenged the preeminence of Matt Winn and Churchill Downs in the Blue Grass state. Fabled mare Pan Zareta won the feature that opening day and goes 3-for-3 on the meet. March 8, 1917 – After one race in Mexico, Old Rosebud makes a winning debut at Oaklawn, 33 months after winning the Kentucky Derby in 1914. He would win again a week later, but would finish third at 137 lbs. to Pan Zareta at 113 when they met March 24. Old Rosebud would turn the tables April 6 in an allowance race en route to leading the nation in handicap earnings that year.
