The track at Monmouth can hardly fail to Dc
heavy to-day from yesterdays ran, and this iac'
and the coughing from which many horses are
suffering reduced the fields TO small limits IA the
uarpesat stakes and Harvest Handicap. But four
teen probable starters announced for the Lassle
stskes for twoyear old lilies, and that will probably
be fine race.
The first race, one mile, for non winners, is likely
N 20 to HYPERION while Huntoon may second.
MIR witbers's fine FLY by Kinglike-Miss Bassett
had a great chance of winning the LasSe Stakes, as
she was doing extremely well in her work But on
saturday she fell and fractured leg so badly tnat
II was necessary 10 shoot her. Brookdale Will now
be represented by the King ErnesrknckknacA MY
but she is not considered fast the Miss Bas'eu
FLY was Mr.. Galway seems TO have the best chance
Of CAPTURING the Lassie with Lvonia and every true
turfman Will be glad TO the Master Of PreaAnesS
win his first race this year. Paradox may run SEC
ond to Iiyona, although there are some fes in this
race with high private regulations that have not
been seen in public.
In the Barnegat Stakes for threeyear dds at
mile and 4 half, Kern and LOngstreet are doubtful
starters If they do not run, only Sorrento, Jubal
and Mr.. Witherss Tomboy will be lett Sorrento

stake and will not be worth 81 900 10 the winner
The Harvest Handicap was an excellent adjustment
OF weights and promised brilliant contest II
Kingston at l29 and Fircnz at l2i had started Oh
a good track the finish would have been between these
two. The allotment 10 either was not an ounce 100
much, and the race might have been practically
match between these two famous racers But In
heavy going neither of the pair usually excels and
that probably explains their absence. II IS repored
however, that the Dryers propose to send kingston
aid sir Dixon Saratoga Immediately They cannot
get heavy betting for nearly so large prizes
at Saratoga at Monmouth but the Brooklyn broth
ers seem rather disguised with Long Branch JUST
now, as LOngstTeet disappointed them SO bitterly,
and they have won race yet at the NeW-JHSeS
course. ...
