Stonestreet Launches Yearling Warranty the Samples Were Tested by Gluck for Bisphosphonates and Anabolic Steroids TUESDAY, JULY 30, 2019 STONESTREET LAUNCHES WELL-NAMED PRESERVATIONIST READY FOR WHITNEY by Mike Kane YEARLING WARRANTY SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. - Surely, there is a joke to be crafted about Preservationist (Arch)=s name and how little he has raced in what is now a four-year career for trainer Jimmy Jerkens and Centennial Farms. With a mere eight starts, he has spent way more time on the injured list than in the starting lineup, but the 6-year-old is finally rewarding the patience of his connections, who have been true believers in his potential to become a top-level competitor. A decisive 4 1/2-length victory over Catholic Boy (More Than Ready) in the GII Suburban S. July 6, his first try in a graded stakes, has carried Preservationist to the Aug. 3 GI Whitney S., where he will tangle with four Grade I winners: Thunder Snow (Ire) (Helmet {Aus}), McKinzie (Street Sense), Yoshida (Jpn) (Heart=s Cry {Jpn}) and Vino Rosso (Curlin). Though Jerkens said after the Suburban victory that he might wait for the Aug. 31 Blood samples being drawn at Stonestreet Farm GI Woodward S., the $1-million Whitney rather quickly became the target. Cont. p4 In response to reports of off-label bisphosphonate use in growing horses, Stonestreet Farm has announced the IN TDN EUROPE TODAY development, in partnership with The University of Kentucky=s STRADIVARIUS NEXT UP FOR FRANKIE Gluck Equine Research Center, of a unique blood sampling, Stradivarius (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) is aiming for a three-peat in testing and secure storage protocol.

ALast year we raised and sold nearly $20 million of yearlings, but our focus has always been to raise racehorses, not sale horses. We are proud of what we do and I think transparency in raising a racehorse is so important. We want our buyers to have the utmost confidence in our yearlings@ said Stonestreet Farm owner Barbara Banke. During 2019, blood samples were drawn from each Stonestreet yearling on a regular schedule developed by the Gluck Equine Research Center using current bisphosphonate detection periods, according to the farm=s release. The samples were drawn by a third-party veterinarian experienced in handling samples within a regulatory environment who was hired by the Gluck Equine Research Center.

It also displays our commitment to safety in all aspects of the equine industry.@ Cont. p4 TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 4 OF 10 • THETDN.COM TUESDAY • JULY 30, 2019 Banke added, AWe invite everyone to join us, because demonstrating that we breed and raise the healthiest and strongest racehorses is not only good for our business, it=s good for the entire sport.@ Well-Named Preservationist Ready for Whitney (cont. from p1) ASome horses thrive in Saratoga. He=s doing well,@ said Centennial president and co-owner Don Little, Jr. AThere are only so many opportunities in life. The horse is doing very well and if he can repeat some of the performance from last time, why not?@ Little agreed that Preservationist is being asked to face a tough crew in the 1 1/8 miles, a AWin and You=re In@ race for the GI Breeders= Cup Classic. AIt=s very salty, but at some point you=re going to have to face the music and take on the big guys,@ Little said. AWe think that we=re one, that we deserve to be there after that performance.@ The Suburban score was Preservationist=s third straight win and pushed his record to 5-1-2. Preservationist | Sarah Andrew Jerkens worked Preservationist on Saratoga=s main track July 27, in what was officially recorded as five furlongs in 1:00.60, the third-fastest of 30 at the distance. Little said that Jerkens was looking at it as a seven-furlong breeze but that time was not captured. Jerkens had the horse doing six furlongs in a tick or so over 1:13. AThe thing that is so exciting watching him is that it just looks like he=s doing a strong gallop, because he=s so athletic,@ Little said. AIt looks like a strong gallop and he=s doing it pretty easily. The rider almost stands up on him and lets him do his work and doesn=t bother him.@ TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 5 OF 10 • THETDN.COM TUESDAY • JULY 30, 2019 Far more important to the partners than the time was that Preservationist looked sharp in the work and was en route for his fifth start in 2019. That is more than the combined total of his races in 2016, 2017 and 2018. He debuted midway through his 3-year-old season of 2016 with a second, but did not race again until December, 2017. After three starts in a little over three months, he was off again for nearly 11 months. AHe=s just always had some nagging things that we had to stop on him. It was getting frustrating,@ Jerkens said. AHe=s finally put it all together, it looks like. Obviously, the fact that he=s only run the few times that he=s run and he=s six years old there have been problems.@ Don Little | Mike Kane Little said that Preservationist did not have a major physical issue and that time may be the most important reason for the turnaround. AI think it=s the type of horse that he is, just a big, robust horse,@ Little said. AIt=s like any athlete you have to wait out the little hiccups. There wasn=t anything really wrong with him.

    SATURDAY, APRIL 17, 2021 ALL IN THE FAMILY WITH THIS SIDE UP: A WISE EXAMPLE FOR EVERY HORSEMAN STONESTREET=S OAKS FILLIES by Chris McGrath Nobody was paying a great deal of attention to him back then, either. But before ceding the weekend headlines to those storied Oaklawn handicaps, the GI Apple Blossom and GII Oaklawn, perhaps we can all take a step back and pay an overdue tribute to a novice who came to Hot Springs in the winter of 1977. Charlie LoPresti had just turned 20 and, learning the ropes under trainer Joe Cantey, was able to count Cox's Ridge and Miss Raja among the first Thoroughbreds to stimulate the skill and devotion that would find their ultimate measure in one of the most accomplished turf runners of modern times. Cont. p8 Barbara Banke introduces us to the siblings of three Stonestreet-bred sophomore fillies, plus a Kentucky Derby-bound colt. IN TDN EUROPE TODAY ARC AIM FOR WONDERFUL TONIGHT by Katie Ritz All roads will lead to the G1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe in 2021 Barbara Banke has a lofty goal heading into this year=s for Wonderful Tonight, according to trainer David Menuisier.

  • 2014 Derby Letter
    RICE’S DERBY CHOICE JOURNAL 2014 35th Edition Anthony Comstock Secretary of the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice: Gaming in every shape strikes at the root of industrious habits. The horse, the noblest animal created for man’s use, is today made to do the dirty work of professional gamblers- (1892) 1 PROLOGUE: A century before the appearance of The Church Lady on Saturday Night Live, Anthony Comstock was the morality policeman snooping into every private and public aspect of American life in search of any deviation from his puritanical code of right and wrong. His indictment of George Bernard Shaw as “an Irish smut dealer” (presumably adding the Irish modifier increased Shaw’s loathsomeness) inspired the playwright to coin the term comstockery meaning censorship based on a perception of immorality. To the relief of horseplayers, Mr. Tony shed his mortal coil in 1915, age 71. The only thing we knew for sure about Henry Porter is that his name wasn’t Henry Porter- Brownsville Girl Bob Dylan Much like Dylan’s enigmatic Henry Porter, the Edison of turf handicapping was known by a name not his own. Pittsburg Phil was not from Pittsburgh nor was his name Phil (the disparity in spelling is due to the “h” being dropped by the city from 1890-1911). That man became the most celebrated high stakes player traversing the horse racing orbit during America’s Gilded Age. The posthumous publication of Racing Maxims and Methods of Pittsburg Phil was authored by his friend Edward W. Cole. That text is still held sacred by serious handicappers.
