Lot 70
Liza Todd-Tivey (American, b. 1957) Nashua and Clem Bronze, 12 ½” x 16” Signed, dated ’82, stamped 3L $4,000. – 6,000. Provenance: The Estate of Leslie Combs, Spendthrift Farm Upon Nashua’s death in 1982, Leslie Combs II commissioned Liza Todd-Tivey for a half-scale statue of Nashua being led by his groom Clem Brooks. While many fans came to visit Nashua when he stood at the farm, Brooks inevitably became a favorite too. An often-told story relates that many admirers would ask Brooks for Nashua souvenirs, and he would always oblige by pulling a horseshoe out of his pocket that he said was “off Nashua” to sell them. What the fans never knew was that Brooks would rummage around after the blacksmith departed and pick up any horseshoes he could find. Covering his bases, the clever Brooks always said they were “off” Nashua, never “on,” and that was true, as Nashua was not wearing them. In the bronze offered here, you can see the outline of a horseshoe in Clem’s right pocket.

Cindy Wolf (American, b. 1946) Lady’s Secret, 1987 Bronze on marble, 12” x 16”, edition 12 of 12 $16,000. – 19,000. Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas once declared Lady’s Secret an overachiever. And anyone looking at her Horse of the Year campaign as a 4-year-old in 1986 would have to agree. She traveled from the West Coast to the East Coast and back. She won 10 of 15 starts, including a 4½-length win over colts in Saratoga’s Grade 1 Whitney Handicap and a 2½-length victory in the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Distaff. All told, the Oklahoma-bred filly won 25 of 45 starts and placed in 12. Her 22 stakes victories include 11 Grade 1 events. Lady’s Secret was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1992.
