The Washington critic., 1888-02-04

is q splendid looking Rlly Probably
the best on looks OF the tot is the
Eolus filly Soirce. There is only one
fault TO be found with her.
Some say that she cuts away too
much in the rump, but that
is hardly much of a fault She worked
her quarter in the mud last fall in 2il
seconds, and has an elegant back TO
carry all the weight the handicappers
will ever give her. Wood Rose is q
fine flly, but most too small. Mr..
Joyner, however, thinks she will
grow considerably by spring. The
three .year-olds, Leander, Rolander,
Romance and Loida, are good look
ing and will probably put money
to the stables credit.
STREETS HORSES
S. w. Street Is wintering at Ivy
City for the first time, and instead of
going into the new stable, where he
would have plenty of company, he
has taken both sides of the stable way
up on the hill, near the exercise pad
dock, where the horses are walked.
Bodily his horses all look well, and
Beverly is the only one of the lot
who is in anything but first
class shape. Mr.. Street says that
Beverly had the worst splint that
he ever saw, and the horse never
could be induced to extend himself
last season, so he put on very severe
blister. The splint has almost dis
appeared, but there is still deal of
fever in the leg. Beverly, also, has q
bad case Of scratches behind, but that
is a small matter. Mr.. Street will not
enter in many stakes this year, but
will conhne himself almost entirely
to purses. Beverly, by the way, will
be entered in the Green steeplechase
and hurdle race at Rockaway. The
horses in the stable are as follows;
Orlando, b. e., o; Bilet.Aeolia.
Beverly, ch. h., q; Bramble Sue Walton.
Niagara, oh. H., 4; Luke Blackburn Ivy
Edisto, ch. M, 4; Enquirer.Babee.
Maroon, ch, g., 4; Macaroon Castinet.
Come Away, CHI e., 3; Clipses Ida May.
Umpire, ch, c., .; Versailles Claudia.
Cbicora, b. f., .; Luke Blackburn .eah n.
Irene, CHI f., 9; Dudley-Wah ia Wah
Alyeta, ch. f., o; Dudley --.
Brighton, CHI C., o; Dudley.Flanksam.
Manhattan, ch. C., .; Bramble Benetia.
Deception, b. E., .; Ten Broeck- Call Duck.
Lily s., b. T., 2; Bramble-LeahZ.
Orlando is one of the most improved
horses at the course. People who saw
him last fall would hardly recognize
the great big brown horse. AS Street
says, if he could just keep him as he
is now it would take lirst-class race
horse to show him his heels; but un-
fortunately, he frcts and grows as
poor as a snake as soon as put in train
ing. Maroon and Come Away have
not yet arrived at Ivy City, but are
expected in q day or so. Brighton
has developed into a wonderfully
good looking race horse, and will
surely win his oats this season.
Deception, the half sister to the
famous Decoy Duck, is good-lOok-
ing filly, but Mr.. Street will probably
not race her until midsummer. Man.
haitian has grown some, and is now
almost as good-looking q colt as one
wants to see. Last fall Mr.. Street
built nice paddock, near his stable
where his horses have been allowed
to run all winter, &hence their Ions
coats and hearty appearance. Nj
| Sheridan has been engaged to ride fol
the stable at 81 200 year.
LOOK AT THE QUARTERS.
On the way back let us take lool
at this row of huts, lining the drive
way opposite the stables. They ar

negro cabins that were formerly seei
