Loblolly Stable
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Loblolly Stable was a Thoroughbred horse breeding and racing stable in Lake Hamilton, Arkansas owned by businessman John Ed Anthony and his former wife Mary Lynn. The stable won the 1980 Belmont Stakes with Temperence Hill and had back-to-back wins in the Preakness Stakes in 1992 & 1993 with Pine Bluff and Prairie Bayou respectively.
Having dissolved their marriage, in 1994 the owners agreed to dissolve the stable operation and began selling off some of its mares and its yearlings at the Keeneland Sales.
Loblolly Stable's successor was John Ed Anthony's Shortleaf Stable. A native of Bearden, Arkansas, in 2001 John Ed Anthony was inducted in the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame.
