The 'rotting events announced were seven
in number, viz: $50, 1928, Gentlemen's Driv.
ing, 234, 2:27 and Minnesota stations and g
trial against st. Julien's 2:13 by Commodore
N. W. Kittson's fast mare, Lady Rolf. The
1898 and 2:27 classes did not fill, the former
undoubtedly owing to the fact that Lady Rolf
was known to be eligible to this class, and it
was supposed she would be entered, and the
latter, through fear of others of Commodore
Kittson's stable. The failure of these two
classes to fill will not however, be allowed to
detract from the sport, as Col. King is ne
gotiating for match between two Minnesota
flyers, both of whom can trot close to 2:20,
in place of the 1898, class, while he announces
two colt races, one for 3-year-olds
and the other for year-olds, in place of the
2:27 class. The terms for these colt stak.
races are $25 entrance-$15,at time of nom
ination an $40 if started; association to add
Sl00; entries to close Sept 1.
We give below the entries for the different
events. AS will be seen every day has it.

SECOND DAY-wEDNEsDAY.
The sport of this day includes the 2:34, coli
stake race for 3-ye ar. olds, the Minnesota stal
lion race and Lady Rolf's trial against time.
Here are two events. Lady Rolf and the stal
lion race. AS will be seen this latter race has
six entries, very evenly matched as to
speed, and the race will un
doubtedly be one of the marked events
of the meeting, while it's importance in con
nection with our breeding and turf interests
is so great that we shall refer to the race more
at length at some future time. The perform
ance of Lady Rolf will also be watched with
great interest. Lady Rolf's record is 2:22K
and at first thought it would appear pres,lmp
tious to announce her for trial against the
2:13 of st. Julien, but when it is remembered
that Commodore Kittson paid $4,000 for hel
after she had shown a half mile with little O,
| any work, in better than 2:15 gait
that since her arrival at Kittsondale she has
| shown a half in Los, and that the Commo
dore thinks so well of her as trotter that he
| authorized in good faith to trot her against
| st. Julien, best 2 in 3, for $1,000 side, il
| does not require the possession of a yerv live
| ly Imagination for one to conceive the idea
that the mare not only has the necessary speed
but that she actually will beat st. Julien's
time when sent to do it at the forthcoming ex
position.
