THE FvTURITY WINNER WAS DEFEATED As
BADLY AS IN THE SUBURBAN.
Aching hearts the failures Of celebrated horses
have been abundant since this meeting OF the Coney
Island Jockey Club began Yesterday there were two
more crashessnd the winners Of the Futurty NJ 1890
and OF the Futurfty Of 1891 went down in dusty de-
feat The excuse made for His frghness that he
was coughing badly. In that he ought not to
have been started. because to RIM a horse with
bad cough sometimes makes him broken-winded for
life His trainer John HyIand' said after the race
that be did not want TO start the famous colt But his
owners, Messrs Gideon 4 DAILY, extremely

Thought that really necessary to find ont the
precise condition Of the colt by racing him. They
might not DO so anxious to win the Realization.
IL not that. on account Of Mr.. Belmonts DEATH the
Realization Is the only valuable stake in which His
Hishness is engaged. Mr. Gideon said after the
race that he had not realized how sick His Ighness
was or he woud not have started him. He feared
that II would be necessary withdraw him from the
Realization entirely. unless his condition should i'm
prove wonderfully before Saturday. II will be a
erievous disappointment TO thousands turf lovers

Saturday.
1t was the third race, handicap at a mile and an
eighth. in which His Highness made miserable an
exhibition Taral rode HIS Highness, who carried
III pounds Messrs. Gideon Daily did not back
don but no bulletin to the effect that His Ighness
was coughing displayed in the betting ring or

that. Perhaps better plan would be for the club
to have veterinary surgeon examine each horse be-
fore each race and paste medical certificate on his
hip. plain for all men to see: "This horse is rheu-
matte" Or oolicky. asthmatic consumptve as
the may be.
The betting against His Highness at first to

Daly's mare Lizzie won the race easily, with long
odds against her. Indeed, some bookmskers gave as
much 40 to 1. Sims waited much too long with
Tom Rogers, he could have won. SNOWFALL was
third. Potomac displayed magnificent speed, staying
power and eameness in the Realization Stakes last
year. when he gave Montana 10 pounds, and stood
pressure superb1y. Judging by Yesterdays nce, his
fall is Supplying. But probably the turf does not
suit him, and he may DO better yet
That fine Splinter DR.. Hasbrouck. the first

many Withdrawals from this and from some OF
the others also.
In the second race all the Jockeys appeared 70 be
anxious to wait for finish with Taral, and so they
ran at n very slow pace. OF course Taral beat them
all at the finish by superior skin. He War
