The first time Tenny was exercised on the track
was "a week ago Monday. He has done nothing
but slow canterng up TO the present time. Donovan
said that he mad to starve him while he was bhstered,
and the attack Of colo reduced nm 80 nuch
that Tenny looks If he had just finished severe

on the 7th OF April, the readers OF The Tribune
NAV Judge for themselves how backward the swayback
Is In his training.
wah Jim Is an Improved colt and is well In several
OF the handicaps lie never ms.t feed In his life,
his trainer said, and Is the sort mat prove bread
winners Kirkover looks well and may be cIa,sed as
a fair selling platter that has lookin with goo1-ciass
horses in handicaps shoali he have up ught weight
and the track DC muddy.
At the IIothouse, as +. A. Ehrct's stable is called
BY some Of the trainers, Matt Allen exhibited thirty
horses, not one of which was the ang list. Every
horse I'm the stable Is sound. Not one OF them mas
shown the fantcst sign Of lameness Allen mas sent
his horses along In their work. several OF the t"o'
yearolds have covered quarter Of mile In twenty
five seconds, and the horses in the older division nave
been worked at thee-quartes and seven eignths
Of IA mile. Clarendon is easily the grandest morse III
training, and should I've be exhibited with the proTs
,iona beauty OF the turf Boero, the latter would Do

likely be reserved for the suburban. Allen regrets 10
this day that he did not save him for that race last
year.

families that train and win. Allen said that Call
forna horses don't do well In this climate after their
lrt winter but when they stand their second one az
right look for them, they show their true form
and are consistent performers. lie quoted a number
Of Instances.
Yorkve Belle, the champion FLY Of 1891. is GER
tainly beauty and retains her frctioness action and
speed OF last year. Allen was asked If he knew OF
anything that could improve her In his eyes,. sad no;
No, Charley Reed bred perfect hlly In forkvins
Belle" Hclgate showed so much speed in his work
last year that Allen decided TO give him another
chance this year. lie is fast and seems TO be stronger
and more determined In his way Of going and may
redeem his reputation in regard TO his glmeness.
Fred Lee Is another that acted much the same a.
Hegate last year and j. likely TO be u contestant
I'm the purse races. Judge Post has got fat and has
been withdrawn from the sale list lie was for sale
for $1,000 and Guttenburg trainer wanted MN,
but DELAYED so long and the horse gained so much
flesh that Allen raised his price TO 1900. The IN
tending purchaser stopped 70 consider II with the
result that the horse looked SO well that Allen 10
fused Al, 900 for him. .
Peter is likely % be early bird. lie looks well
and moves like racehorse he has not lost bis speed
and has fully recovered nom the injury to his foot
Falrvicw wants 10 do his work at a racing pace when
urged faster than caner. ;. Doggett gives him all
of MS work and he has covered seyen-eighths IN

cnppers and l. In the handicaps with catchweight
on his back, with chance That he will 90 10 tho
