FACTS FOR TURFMEN.
Some of the Achievements Of Running and
Trotting Horsss--What Our Local Cslsbr..
ties Have to Contend Against.

AS the races open Monday next,
1t has occurred to us that a few

amiss. We shall therefore in.
dulge in q few notes which occupy
salient place in racing annals.

Brock at Louisville, Kentucky, in
1877, in 1.392. Ten Brock was
five years old and carried ITO
pounds, He also made the best
two miles on record In 3.274. He
had preceded this achievement by
making the best three miles, when
he was four years old and carried
104 pounds. Time, 5.26t. Deter.
mined to establish his status as the
admirable Crichton" of racers,
Ten Brock, the same year and car
rying the same weight, made the
best four miles in 7.153.
The best half mile on record was
made by Olitipa, ut Saratoga, In
1874, In Az. Olitipa was two
year-old and carried 81 pounds.
