Garrison expected TO ride Eon in the New-forK
Jockey Club Handicap at 112 pounds, but ooulu noU
make the weight. SO TsIal got the mount 1aSlor
was too sore to ride Tristan so Garrison got te mount
The - Snappers did not understand Tristan layIor
never dared 10 touch him with whip but rode WIN
his hands and persuaded the rascal to 90 MS Deso oS
gentle persuasion. Tristan took ofence al "arTsoh
vigorous hustnga and began fighting the Jockey as soon
as he felt the gaff
- Fddies Lewis one of Garrison's intimates went
down the line betting hundreds on Eon' A1ler Vne

on the track. He stood IN ront OF 0ie sIouus'""u'

20 a mile and quarter IN :OO L.
Tournament. timed separately, ran the distance in
o.O7 81 That time would win nine races in ten.
His breathless rush in the first half mile left him all out
az the finish but he showed more pluck in the final
struggle than his enemies believed he possessed
By-andby, If he is hammered into form and does not
break down The was little lame behind on Saturday
ne will bring his detractors to the blush. How many
horses in training could have kept pace with him up
that hill? Ii is common belief that Tour
namenf is a cur, coward and gutter,
yet william Hayward, who rode The Bard-as
brave a horse as ever looked through bridle-and
whose long experience in the saddle should give weight
IN his words declares that the son OF Sir Modred and
Playthng is as game as slHwlneck. The plain truth
about Tournament is that Ire has always had the mis-
fortune 10 be in the hands Of incompetent TO be
charitable overcautious trainers who race him when
not in condition He is gross fellow that requires a
great deal OF work TO keep him from taking on fat In
terally and IL Is evident that he never gets enough
exercise except in his races. Note his amazing I'M
provement in the last week Why does Cooper let up
on nmi Mr.. Keene owes it to himself 10 see that the
stable tactics are radically changed Tournament should
have started in the first to-day even II the handi
capper had put 40 pounds him, which he would not
have done but Cooper did not even enter him. What
folly What Stupidity 1t may be that Mr. Kcene
will follow the advice Of Walcott g. Campbell, he is
with them good deal. Well, walcott d Campbell
usually succeed these days in getting the money They
certainly know their business None would rejoice
more than the writer over Tournaments success one
tnng is certain when the colt wins the judges VIII
