two-year-old of the year. His sole de-
feat was in the Junior Champion stakes.
when he finished third to Strathmeath
and Sallie McClelland. Eastern trainers
claim that he could beat any
three-year-old in the East at a
mile in the fall, and he promises
to become sensational horse if he
winters well. His Eastern engagements
became void at the death of his nomi-
