Daniel Stearns, longtime owner, breeder, veterinarian, and a former head of the Ohio Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protection Association, died on Thursday. He was 90 years old.
Stearns served as the state veterinarian at Sunshine Park in the late 1940’s before coming to Thistledown in the early 1950’s. He has bred and owned horses in the state ever since.
Stearns was a driving force behind the creation of the Ohio Thoroughbred Breeders’ and Owners.
He is survived by his son, Daniel Jr.
Best Bets
MISCHIEF MAKER ran twice in mid-winter, showing ability in debut while caught wide early, followed by a third at 25-1 in overnight stake after breaking in a tangle; catches soft maiden special-weight field off a slate of Saratoga works. SUGAR BEACH is 0 for 13 after even try in muddy off-the-turfer eight days ago; second try in blinkers. SWEET KAKES takes blinkers off after giving futile chase to Sing Like a Bird in mud; something close to last two on fast footing give her money chances. ISLARAMA tries statebreds after willing finish behind 3-10 Jaggermama at Pimlico first time out.
