Stonerside Stable, Horse stud farm in Bourbon County, Kentucky, US.
Stonerside Stable is a thoroughbred stud farm in Bourbon County that operates breeding and training facilities for racing horses. The property includes multiple barns with stalls and a training track beside Stoner Creek.
The property traces back to James Kenney, a Revolutionary War soldier who acquired the land in 1785 and built a residence there. What started as a small holding grew into a major breeding operation over subsequent generations.
