The morning call., 1890-06-02

bet of 10000 to a100 taken two years ago in
Sir John Willoughby's Yearlng Book.
Surefoot, who won the 1000 guineas, is the
first foal of his dam. According to the En-
glish accounts the colt should win the
Derby easily. He is now quoted at to 2
in the betting.
IS MAUD TOO OLD?
The Horseman's Terre Haute correspond
ent says:
There has been considerable talk among the
horsemen here OF Mr.. Bonners avowed intention
TO resuscitate the reigning queen aud have her
make trip against the record that has stood so
long opposite her name. The conclusion seems
to be unanimous that the proposition Is impracti-
cable even were she sound. She is now 16 years
OF age, has had long let-up, her muscles are re-
Taxed aud aye has necessarily dulled her recu-
perative powers. Were she young and the front
leg good, 1t would take al least Two years of work
to get her in condition for the supreme effort the
undertaking demands. AS 1t Is the feat Is i'm
possible, and Mr.. Bonner will have 10 center his
attention upon Sunol il he expects to beat
2:0S24, a mark that will yet remain some time.
JIMMY TO RIDE AGAIN.
Jimmy Mclaughlin, the well-known
Jockey, who is now training p. Lorllard's
horses. will in all probability be seen in
the saddle soon again. He is reducing now
and may ride at Westchester. 1t is report
ed that he will be upon Tenny for the Su-
burban. Tenny, by the way, will take up
four-pound penalty for business at West
chester on Friday, and will have to carry
127 pounds. As he won easily, however, by
three lengths, the weight may not stop him
and with Mclaughlin up, Tenny should be
there or Whereabouts at the finish.
Starter Caldwell says he held the flag two
hundred aud twenty days in 1889, aud eX-
poets to make the number even three hun
dred this year. 1t would have seemed
crazy prediction ten years ago had anybody
said that a starter would receive $50 600 for
his services 10 one year.
HAGGIN's YEARLINGs.
The Haggin consignment of thoroughbred
yearlings left Rancho del Paso for sale in
New York last week. The lot selected for
shipment looks in fine order, and as they
are by such sires as Sir Modred, Darebin,
Kyrle DAILY and other famous good ones,
out of high-class mares, the prices obtained
should prove most satisfactory,
A POOR LOT.
The Dwyer two-year-olds are now openly
year as last. There is not even good sec
ond-class one among them, according to
Eastern accounts.
The PAGER Bessemer, 2:13A, went trial
mile at Lexington last week IN 2:17A.
YOSEMITE WELL LIKED.
When the Western division Of the Hearst
stable were recently in st. Louis they were
seen by the Spirit of the Times cores pom
dent, who thus described them: "Almont is
Il
Australian four-year-olds, Delmar and Ger
trude, will both make their mark before
long; but to my mind the two-year-old
Yosemite will prove to be by far the best of
the bunch. He is by Hyder Ali, dam Nellie
Collier, "a slashing big colt with an immense
stride, no end of power and not an ounce of
lumber to carry"
Suisun, the Electioneer mare which John
Turner gave record at Washington, con-
tinued her victorious career at Baltimore,
winning the 2:27 class in straight heats,
1926, 2:29, 231.
