Derry Meeting Farm in Chester County, Pa., sold in three parcels, none expected to continue breeding Thoroughbreds. 

Purchased by Marshall Jenney in 1964 and run by his widow, Bettina, after his death in 2000, Derry Meeting bred leading sire Danzig and was the birthplace of leading sire Storm Cat. Among other greats were three-time English and Irish champion Mrs. Penny, French and English champion Selkirk, Breeders’ Cup Turf-G1 winner Tikkanen, stakes winner and Grade 1 producer Mrs. Jenney, Irish classic winner Lucarno and multiple Grade/Group 1 winner Mrs. Lindsay (a great-granddaughter of Mrs. Jenney). 

Said Bettina Jenney about the decision: “Marshall made his dream come true when he bought the farm in 1964, and I just tried to carry on that dream and it was wonderful doing it. I’m getting older and it’s time to retire.”

• “Ladies in Waiting” offered a window into the local breeding industry. During the season that brings “optimism, hope, promise of new foals and future racehorses,” the magazine caught up with a sampling of notable mares, including Shared Account, Layounne, Julie B and Jazzy Idea. “Broodmares. They’re big, small, old, young, barren, maiden, grouchy, happy, bay, chestnut, gray and they’re here. Ready,” wrote Joe Clancy.
