Bsme Early Tips on the Rich
Stake Events.

Stake Events.
Betting on the futures was unusually
brisk during the Metropolitan handicap,
having received considerable attention
from investors, who have accepted
freely the 10 to / offered against La
Tosca, as likewise 10 to l against Ber-
muda. Others that have received
liberal support for this event are Rus
sell, Montana and POrtchester, which
have each been backed at % to l, and
LiVonia and Yosemite, against which
bets have been recorded AT 80 to GO to
respectively. Little has been done on
the Brooklyn. excepting that Long
street has been so heavily played that
his price is now but to /, and very
little of that obtainabe at this writing,
rome of the books quoting him at 4.
In the Suburban Tournament has
been backed off the board, leaving
Tenny the favorite at 10 to |. Poet
Scout has been backed down TO 20 TO l,
held. EOn. Ban Chief. Lamplighter are
30 to l, Picknicker is - TO l, and White
Rose. May Win and Warpath, quoted In
the Eastern book as full" are here so
10 and 100 to l respectively.
1t is worthy of comment at this par
tlcular season that the Suburban or
Brooklyn Handicap has never been won
by mare. The Kentucky Derby, for
colts and FLIES three years of age, in
Stitutcd in 1873, and run in the month
of 6iay. has never been captured by a
flly, and the American Derby, run at
Chicago in the latter part of June, in
Stituted in 1882, has been won only once
by a lilly-Modesty.
Most important changes have taken
place in the Chicago book on the Derby
and handicaps. Carlsbad is now the IA
vorte for the former event at 10 to l &;
Xaldivar the Californian, second favor
lite at - to l, while 90 to can be had on
BaShtOrd, % to l on Cicero, COrrigan'S
maiden, and Galindo, and so to l on
ARA, Addie. Chief Justice, Casa, Fara-
dav, Ignite and Newton, The laSt-nam( d
horse is Dave PulSifer's tip for the
Derby.
The declarations out of the American
Derby, ten in number, do not affect the
quality of the field in the least, as none
of them showed quality enough to win
u stake. Buchanan was, perhaps, the
best OF the lot, scoring seven winning
brackets out of thrty-three starts. G.
L. Brown, out of eight starts, only won
the Trial stakes at Hawthorne. Tom
Paxton won three ont of eleven starts.
The others are maidens. This leaves
seVenty-tVe horses from which to pick
winner i'll the great Washington Park
event.
The English three-year colt Simon
Rcnard, by st. Simon out Of Blue Rock,
entered in the Garfield Park Derby in
the name of Lord Randolph Churchill,
has won the Batthyany plate, an all
aged handicap at six furlongs, on the
opening day of the Lincoln spring
meeting. Though among the light
weight division, carrying only ninety
two pounds, Simon Renard is credited
with having shown in this race both
speed and courage. and has been highly
praised by the English sporting scribeS.
The hee;rfooted brown FLY Georgia,
by Himyar, dam Dixietta, which
showed so much speed in her two-year-
old form last year, is not expected TO
sport silk the coming season. The
same may be said of the imported FLY
Fauveite. by Town Moor, dam Chop
cite, another of the Morris string of
three-year-olds, which would leave that
famous stable only st. Florian and
Mars to do battle for it in the three
year-old stake events.
The reorganiZed Kentucky association
has issued its book programme for the
spring meeting, which begins April 80
and ends May 10. The stake events an
nounced contain many and high class
entries and assure successful meeting.
The first stake event of the meeting is the
