ABOUT HANDICAP ENTRIES.
New YORK, August 24.-Gideon &
Daily have concluded not 10 start
keenan, in the Futurity. They will
depend entirely upon Butterflies, al
though Walter may be put in as pace
maker,
The Futurity candidates were all
given their exercise to-day. AT
Sheepshead Bay Butterflies pulled
up sound after her canter, and
IT is the general opinion among
horsemen that II she stands
at The post length OF time and gets
away she will win in 3 canter. There
will be proposition made 20 the Exec
utive Committee TO get the starter to
line up the horses and 10 leave at the
post those that don't break away after
a couple OF attempts. There are sew
eral bad actors in the race that will
likely keep the field at the post for
long time.
Mr.. Belmont's Brandywine showed
fast work again this morning. lie Is
expected TO be among the first three
horses. Byron McClelland worked The
Commoner and Cesarion. Marcus
Daly's Sadie went very fast through the
stretch. Louis Stuart's Monaco did
likewise. He is trained to the hour,
his races at Brighton Beach having
fitted him nicely. On the showing hs
made with Harry Reed, he has fair
chance tomorrow.
AT Gravesend, Garrison again exer-
cised Colonel Ruppert's Counter Tener.
The horse worked very rapidly through
the stretch, showing no display OF tenn
per. Charles Littlefield, Jr., had Goa.
noisseur out, and worked him once
round the track. He is at loss for a
capable jockey to ride, and has none
engaged as yet.
Great accounts reach here OF the
work done by the Oneck Stable lilly,
California, who worked Yesterday at
Jerome Park In 1:l7. This is consid-
cred as good as 1:14jl over the Sleeps
head Bay track.
