The Maryland Horse Breeders Association’s Annual Yearling Show has served as a stepping stone to success for many Maryland-bred Thoroughbreds since it was first held in 1932, and the crop of participants in last year’s show was no exception, as two 2-year-olds racing this year found stakes victories within days of one another: Sharing and Project Whiskey.
Belair, Bowling Brook, Country Life, Fox Hill, Fuss, Glen Riddle, Grove, Prospect Hill, Sagamore, The Caves, Verdant Valley, Worthington. . . a few of these farms remain in operation today, but many woven into the fabric of the early history of the Maryland Horse Breeders Association are no more. The association published a list of 45 Maryland Thoroughbred farms for the first time in the February 1937 issue of The Maryland Horse, and over the decades the MHBA has kept tabs on the farms, acreage, stallions and breeding stock – all an important component of the state’s agricultural industry.
