Sept. q, and several others of his stable |
won places in races the past week.
Minnie, valuable trotting mare owned
by R. M. Lindsay, Scranton, Pa, ran away,
throwing the driver from the sulky, and
after an exciting run, fell and broke her
neck.
Bair, the former driver of Maud s. now
handling the horses of Mr.. Vanderbilt, an
nounces confidence in his ability to drive
Early Rose and Aldine mile in 2:1611 on
the Morissania track.
One of the most important purchases
recently was that of the three year old
black gelding, Carley B., by Virgil, out
of Ladylike, by bennington, by the
Dwyer Bros for $4,000.
Manetta, daughter of Woodford Nam
brine, recently trotted mile on Mr.. Bon
ner's three-quarter track, driven by John
Murphy, in "a, LOS, 1:422, 2:16%. The
same dav, Maud Macy, driven by David
Bonner, trotted in 1894, 1:Os11, 1884,
2:174.
Mr.. Million Young has sold his racing
stable to R. G. Pate, of st. Louis, and
henceforth will give his time to the breed
ing of horses at far-famed McGrathiana,
in its time the breeding place of some of
the most famous turf performers of the
country. Mr.. Pate has heretofore been
connected with the trotting turf, where he
did fairly well.
The Turf, Field and Farm is authority
for the statement that George Wilkes, form
er editor of The Spiritof the Times, now in
Europe, will soon return to this country,
and will resume control in whole or in part,
of The Spirit. Mr.. Wilkes will receive a
hearty welcome from the fraternity and
readers of the paper generally.
The dead heat between three for Sec
ond place at Brighton Beach on Wednes-
day was unprecedented in this country, we
believe. There have been several dead
heats between three in England. This
year Gerald, Marden and Leonora ran
dead heat for the first place in the San
down Derby, and in the run off Marden
won, Gerald second, Leonora third.
To settle the question as to
whether Mr.. Vanderbilt in Early Rose
and Aldine, or Mr.. Work in
Edward and Dick Swiveller have the
fastest team, some members of the Gentle
mems Driving park, New York city, pro-
pose to offer an elegant silver and gold
service, costing $4,000, for a match to
wagons next June. The proposition should
meet with with favor. Anyway, the two
gentlemen should put up or shut up. The
country is tired of SO much talk and wants
a race.
This year has seen Dictator, the brother
of Dexter, take high rank among the trot-
ting sires of the country. From his loins
came Code, who won the three-year-old
race at Chicago, and Jay -eye-see, the cham
pion four-year-old, record 2:19. Another
son, Director, won the 1925 race at
Golden Gate fair, CAL, Sept. 8, beating a
field of six and reducing his record to 2:24.
Still another son, the fve-year-old stallion
Phallas, owned by ]. I. Case, Racine, Wis,
at the recent Chicago fair, after warming
up mile in 2:271%, turned the track in
2:221, after which $4,000 was refused for
him. Dictator now has six in the 2:3O list.
and plenty more coming. :.
Queen Dido, trotting mare of great
power in her day, died the 18th inst, at the
mature age of 36. She was, in her day, a
| celebrated mare, both on the track and on
the road. She won thirteen races on the
Union course, always driven by Hiram
Woodruff, and all the races to wagon, as
Queen Dido could pull four wheels as fast
as two, which was big handicap in her
favor in matches of this kind. Her most
| exciting race was one in which she beat
James Irving's brown mare Deception,
trottlng the fourth heat, in heavy shower,
| in 2:37, which was her record. This race
| created great sensation at the time.
The fall racing meeting at Chicago will
| commence tomorrow. The entries for
| the different stakes are very numerous
and rare speed may be
looked for. Among the nominators
is L. E. Legg. Of Minneapolis, with his
heety three-year-old FLY, Fly Dance by
War Dance, and his two-year-old FLY.
Spray, by imp. Bruckden, dam Conse-
quence by Bay Middleton, sire of Flying
Dutchman. Like most of the Bruckdens,
Spray has temper, but under Mr.. Legg's
! judiciouss treatment she has become very
tractable. She has shown herself to. pos
sess q wonderful speed, and Mr.. Legg is
very hopeful of seeing her 60 the front in
the rich stake in which she is engaged.
