In the same calendar which contains the announce
ment of the foregoing. it appears Mr.. Lorillard de-
cares his racing coors. which slightly different
from those he runs his horses in at home. being first
color cherry black hoop sleeves, black cap. with
gold tassel; second color same, with black sash.
The object of entering Duke OF Majenta in the
Metropolitan Stakes, run ON April 49, is mystery,
unless it is with the object OF getting line the
handcapper's idea of his merit. The Duke has not
been outside his stable door since he taken sick,
and so turf men will be in measure able to Judge
how serious an illness he has had, and they will at
once conclude that in three months he cannot re-
cupcrate sufficiently to race. even provided he was
now able to be about. Fortunately, there does not
seem to be any reason to fear that his wind will
affected. but the continued discharge from the alb
cesses which covered his entire body must have
pulled him down considerably. Indeed. if he had
not been horse Of an iron constitution he must
have succumbed to the attack. 1t is questionable
whether the Duke will be galoped before April
and if he is lit by Goodwood Mr. Brown will be effect
ing little short of miracle His admirers in America
may rest assured that September even October
must arrive before the horse will be able to do JUS
tice to their antcipatons On Thursday of this
week Mr. Brown had Parole, Uncas and Pappoose
on the new exercise ground behind the Warren Kill
plantation, and they dill some trotting and easy
terng. Parole has got on wonderfully since his
rival anc seems to have entirely recovered from the
effects of his voyage. judging from the way he has
filled out. His rough appearance. compared with
English horses is very noticeable but that will i'm
prove. while good many OF the cracks might well
take pattern from his grand action. Providing the
gclding is any way leniently treated in tile
reason why he should not do well even if
he cannot get home first. Uncas must be
relegated to the category OF useful colts for
he has not got on well enough to take rank dan
gerous Derby horse, though between and June
he may improve. His opponents not likely to be
standing STILL however. and they have already good
deal the best of him. The deficiency his quarters
and thighs is still conspicuous, and he wants the
driving power to take him up the steep gradients ut
EPSON. If judicousy managed he will be more
likely to pay his way in hardcaps. Pappoose is
filling out very nicely. and ii she does not out
flyer then she is the most decetful looking flly at
Newmarket OF the Others Boreas is the most back
ward. but he very late foal he is handi-
capped by his age. What Mr. Lorillards horses want
and indeed all of our horses from end of the land
to tho other. is speedy change in the weather and
good open spring.
