and continue days of the present week. promises to
be equally 3d. the programme being Of an unusually at
tractive character
On the arrival of the visitors from the city at the track
on Saturday morning, they met with the unex-
pected intelligence that the famous race morse Tom
Bowling had broken down. 1t appears that on the
morning OF Friday his trainer had observed consider
able enlargement the near forcleg OF the horse,
which had yielded TO constant lamentations and ban
dagng. but had appeared again lower down near the
fetlook Joint AS the horse had not had gaop since
the race for the Mansion House Stakes in which he had
beaten Whisper and Ransom 1t was clear that the IN
jury had been received in that race; tho manner III
which he ridden his head being pulled from side TO
side in the Efforts OF his jockey TO prevent him from
going at his best doubtless contributing to the result
Most OF the trainers who examined the horse pro-
nounced il O case Of "breakine down." but
DR.. Cattnach, veterinary surgeon OF new
York who was requested to make a careful inspection
OF the horses leg, declared that the injury dld not
amount to break GOWn, Dul tndl no Hdu III us cb
in the race and that although the consequent swelling
was extensive the middle tendon not injured, and
that in short time the leg would be goods as ever
1t is to be hoped that the veterinary surgeons judgment
in the matter will be confirmed by the result In any
case Tom Bowling Will be unable to start for the sara
Cup July and the anticipated great race for
that event between Springbok, Katie Pease, Wanderer,
Preakness and himself will not take place. il the injury
proves OF serious character Tom Bowling will be sent
to the shed in kentucky and his brilliant turf career be
brought to an unexpected close
