Lexington reports indicate the 1910 Kentucky Futurity entry list will set new records. The race, billed as the world’s trotting Derby, attracts top three year olds and heavily influences breeding, with substantial prize money and rising demand for young trotters. The event began in 1893 as the Representative Stallion Stake with eleven starters, and has grown into a national classic with immense earnings potential for owners.
The article recalls seven starters including Oakland Baron Katrina Belle and Shadow from the Kentucky Futurity era. It details Oakland Baron’s early heats and record times 2.1614 2.1634 2.18, his later 2.0914 mark and progeny. It covers Rose Croix’s 1806 win by trainer M. E. McHenry, and Ferono’s 1900 victories 2.1214 2.10 2.12, plus Peter Sterling and Walnut Hall’s 1901 results and the fate of Peter Sterling.
