History of the E.R Bradley Handicap
Named in honour of Edward R. Bradley, who was the founder of the Idle Hour Stock Farm, which was most famous for its stallion Black Toney.
The farm also produced champion horses like Blue Larkspur, the 1929 horse of the year, and Bimelech.
The race has been run every year since the mid 1990 and has only been taken out twice by one horse, French Beret, in 2008 and 2009.
Bradley bought the Fair Grounds Race Course in 1932 and owned several other prominent businesses associated with horse racing in the Kentucky area.
The race was called off in 2006, due to Hurricane Katrina.
