  • All in the Family with Stonestreet=S Oaks Fillies
    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. GI Kentucky Oaks. Click or tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. AI would love for there to be a Stonestreet trifecta,@ she said. AThat would be my dream.@ It sounds like quite the feat, but a trio of sophomore fillies foaled and raised at Stonestreet Farm are shaking out to be some of the strongest contenders expected to be vying for the garland of stargazer lilies on the last Friday of April.

  • 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.

  • James Whitcomb Riley - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series James Whitcomb Riley - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive James Whitcomb Riley(7 October 1849 - 22 July 1916) James Whitcomb Riley was an American writer, poet, and best selling author. During his lifetime he was known as the Hoosier Poet and Children's Poet for his dialect works and his children's poetry respectively. His poems tended to be humorous or sentimental, and of the approximately one thousand poems that Riley authored, the majority are in dialect. His famous works include "Little Orphant Annie" and "The Raggedy Man". Riley began his career writing verses as a sign maker and submitting poetry to newspapers. Thanks in part to an endorsement from poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, he eventually earned successive jobs at Indiana newspaper publishers during the latter 1870s. Riley gradually rose in prominence during the 1880s through his poetry reading tours. He traveled a touring circuit first in the Midwest, and then nationally, holding shows and making joint appearances on stage with other famous talents. Regularly struggling with his alcohol addiction, Riley never married or had children, and was involved in a scandal in 1888 when he became too drunk to perform. He became more popular in spite of the bad press he received, and as a result extricated himself from poorly negotiated contracts that limited his earnings; he quickly became very wealthy. Riley became a bestselling author in the 1890s. His children's poems were compiled into a book and illustrated by Howard Chandler Christy. Titled the Rhymes of Childhood, the book was his most popular and sold millions of copies.
