Skip the pricey bleacher seats at Churchill Downs and celebrate the Kentucky Derby closer to home with horses and hats, mint juleps and soul-warming southern fare

the most exciting two minutes in all of sports, it’s no surprise that the southern

panache surrounding the Kentucky Derby (held this year on May 7) spreads so eas-

ily to the metro. Kansas City actually has a winning history with the rosy race. The

1938 trophy went to a copper-brown colt named Lawrin, who was born and bred on

Prairie Village’s Woolford Farm, land that is now Mission Road Antique Mall, Corinth

Shopping Center and Corinth Downs. So really, it’s your obligation as a Kansas

Citian to throw a charmingly posh Derby party packed with springtime blooms (our

gorgeous palette of pink and peach petals was arranged by Beco Flowers), tradi-

tional Derby dishes and hat-bedecked guests. Don’t stress. We’re here with all the

resources you’ll need to jockey your bash from the first toast to the finish line.

clockwise from top: It's easy to get carried away with festive flair when dressing your table

(and yourself for that matter—but more on that later) for a Kentucky Derby affair. To keep your

table from tilting over-the-top, choose a simple, uncovered surface to anchor your flowery

spread and surround it with unfussy chairs. An elegant white linen napkin monogrammed and

bordered with pink and green embroidery and gathered in a blooming napkin ring, both avail-

able at Sharyn Blond Linens, are the perfect accompaniments. If you're not lucky enough to

throw your fete in the center of a thriving horse farm, find unexpected ways to work in eques-

trian touches like horseshoes, prize ribbons or old racing photos. An oversize julep vase holds

roses and peonies in shades of pink, arranged by Beco Flowers.

At left and below: Our menu (housed in a frame from

Webster House) features traditional southern dishes like

beef tenderloin with Henry Bain sauce, a topping famously

created by a Louisville waiter of that name. A bourbon hazel-

nut pecan pie, made by Sara Bleything of Sorelle Pie Bakery

and on a cake plate from Scandia Down, is served with crème

de menthe-infused whipped cream. above: Fashion blogger

and stylist Jessie Artigue (styleandpepper.com) tops off her

Derby soirée? The fiercely fabulous wide-brimmed hats! (This selection available from The

tral card stock, marked with a suiting stamp and used as place cards. Created by Beco Flowers

tulips—succeeding in both setting the sweetly pink color palette for our table and upping the

Derby dramatics. The metallic-rimmed rose dishes are available at River Market Antique Mall.

Hats off to local fashion blogger and stylist Jessie Artigue for showing off our locally

curated collection of lovely lids. Here, she dishes on how to get that chic Derby style

THE MOD HATTER

Any sporting event that practically requires a fabu-

lous hat is a winner in my book. The tradition of

wearing an elaborate headpiece to the Derby actu-

ally started as part of the event’s dress code—the

big brims a necessity for horse racing spectators not

lucky enough to take in the trot from under cover of

Louisville’s strong rays. Now, hats have turned into

the ultimate social status symbols and have become

an opportunity to showcase personal style.

When styling my clients for special events, I use

the opportunity to incorporate trends they may not

get a chance to wear every day. Bold floral patterns,

sheer lace and mixed prints are all especially perfect

for springtime events, and a mixture of ladylike sepa-

rates looks wonderful when paired with an under-

stated shoe or other feminine accessories. One tip

on mixing prints: Look for pieces that share colors or

keep the size of the prints on the same scale. How to

choose the right Derby hat? The wider the brim the

better—and extra points for flowers and feathers.

clockwise from left: Artigue accessorizes her feminine Derby-

day look with a gold-filled horseshoe-shaped charm necklace

handcrafted by Lawrence-based Early Jewelry (available locally

at Hemline and Spool). You can't talk Kentucky Derby without

mentioning mint juleps. David Smuckler, the master mixologist at

the newly opened Tavern in the Village restaurant, puts his own

local spin on the southern standard with the Thai Tavern Julep;

julep cups at Mission Road Antique Mall. Petite bourbon hazelnut

pecan pies, made by Sara Bleything of Sorelle Pie Bakery, are

topped with individual dollops of crème de menthe-infused home-

made whipped cream and the bakery's signature chocolate 'S.'

buttermilk biscuits

Makes 6

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1-1/2 tablespoons sugar

1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder

Rounded 1/4 teaspoon salt

roasted beef tenderloin

with henry bain sauce

Serves 6 to 8

3 pounds beef tenderloin, trimmed and tied

as necessary

1 tablespoon canola oil

1 tablespoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/3 cup A.1. Steak Sauce

1/3 cup Heinz Chili Sauce

1/3 cup ketchup

1/3 cup Worcestershire Sauce

2 tablespoons Major Grey’s Chutney

Heat oven to 450 degrees and arrange a rack

in the upper third. Place meat on a rack over

a baking sheet and rub with oil. Sprinkle salt

and pepper on all sides and let meat come to

room temperature while the oven is heating,

at least 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine remaining ingre-

dients in a small saucepan and place over

medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally,

until sauce is thick and coats the back of a

rubber spatula without running off, about 15

minutes.

Roast tenderloin until a meat thermom-

eter inserted in the thickest part reads about

100 degrees, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove

from oven and increase the oven temperature

to 500 degrees.

While the oven is heating, brush all sides

of the meat with 1/4 of the glaze, then return

to the oven. Continue brushing 1 to 2 table-

spoons of the glaze on the meat every five

minutes until the thermometer reads 120

degrees (for rare), about 15 to 20 minutes.

Remove tenderloin from the oven, tent

with foil, and let rest at least 10 minutes.

Slice into 1-inch-thick pieces and serve with

remaining sauce on the side.

OGRAM

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 stick (1/4 cup) cold unsalted butter,

cut into 1/2-inch cubes

3/4 cup well-shaken buttermilk

1 tablespoon milk or cream for brushing

biscuits

Put oven rack in middle position and pre-

heat oven to 425 degrees.

Sift together flour, sugar, baking pow-

der, salt, and baking soda onto a sheet

of wax paper, then sift again into a bowl.

Blend in butter with your fingertips until

mixture resembles coarse meal. Add but-

termilk and stir with a fork until a dough

just forms (dough will be moist).

Turn dough out onto a well-floured

surface and knead gently 6 times. Pat out

dough on a floured surface with floured

hands, reflouring surface if necessary. Flour

the rim of a circular cookie cutter or drink-

ing glass and cut out rounded dough for

biscuits, flouring cutter or glass between

cuts. Transfer biscuits with a metal spatula

to an ungreased baking sheet, arranging

them 2 inches apart, and brush tops with

milk or cream. Bake until pale golden, 12 to

15 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool

to room temperature.
