Weiss turned over the leg saddle flap and barely noticed something there inscribed in the leather. It read, “Sir Barton.” I gasped. I may have screamed. I was in shock.” She immediately started researching Sir Barton, reading and looking at the few photos there are of him online. “I couldn’t believe my eyes,” she said. “Several of my items were clearly in the photos.” Upon further examination, she discovered the initials “GB” (Guy Bedwell) inside the top hat. “I also discovered the initials “JL” (Johnny Loftus) in the jockey skull cap. I tell you, I cried.” Further research revealed that after Guy Bedwell passed away, his now late son and assistant trainer, Leonard
Bedwell, moved to a farm in Arkansas, just off Old Highway 63. “It made sense to me how these items may have ended up in that old flea market down there,” she said. “I then very carefully stored and protected my newfound treasures. I knew I had something special.” The consignor has never cleaned any of the items, and for that she is grateful. “And I didn’t tell anyone about my find but a couple close friends and my brother for fear it would get stolen. I felt it needed to be seen and enjoyed by all who love horse racing, and I was responsible for getting it into the right hands.” Sir Barton was a chestnut colt bred in Kentucky by John E. Madden at Hamburg Place Farm, near Lexington. His paternal grandshire was the 1893 English Triple Crown winner Isinglass, and his half-brother was 1908 juvenile champion Sir Martin. In 1918, Madden sold Sir Barton for $10,000 to J.K.L. Ross, a Canadian businessman who had committed himself to horse racing. The following year, 1919, Sir Barton won his season debut as a maiden in the Kentucky Derby, winning the race by five lengths. The next day he was shipped to Baltimore to participate in the Preakness, where he defeated Eternal by four lengths. He then won the Withers Stakes in New York in May and then the Belmont Stakes in June, completing the Sir Barton, ridden by jockey Johnny Loftus, won the first Triple Crown in history. Sir Barton’s four wins were Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes in 1919, making him horse racing’s very first Triple accomplished in a span of just 32 days, and he was retroactively Crown winner.

Upon looking in a basket comprising the lot, she saw saddle blankets, a saddle, crops and other items. “All were very old and dusty, obviously horse racing items, so I decided to buy the lot because I had ideas to have a horse racing display in my house someday,” she said. “When I got home, I put them in a plastic tub with my other findings, closed it up and stacked it with the rest.” Several years later, she began pulling the tubs out, and when she got to that tub she began examining everything and envisioning a display. “I was looking at the saddle thinking I might cut it in half to mount it on the wall when I

honored as 1919’s Horse of the Year. Later that same year his winning streak came to an end at the Dwyer Stakes, where he faced Purchase, another highly rated three-year-old.
