New York, Sept 16.-Racing at Sleeps
head Bay having ended Saturday, the
| horsemen have now turned to Brighton
Beach.
The card offered to-day is not a thrill
ing one The fields are of the regular
beach class, with a sprinkliDg OF the
| outlaw element.
II is said at the Brighton track that Byron
MeClelland has declined Mr.. Belmont 6
offer to train Henry of Navarro and other
horses that he Intended Ia send 10 England
and the chances are that Mr. Belmont will
not race across the water next year
| Margrone, his Derby candidate, does not
seem to be within many pounds of Derby
form, and before sending Henry of Navarro
abroad to compete with the horses of Eng
| hnd-overtwom miles and upward, with from
i $50 TO 14O pounds on his back-he ought
to demonstrate his ability TO give our best
horses at least twenty pounds and a beat
ing at a mile and half. If he cannot do
this his chances for defeating the best horses
I'm England at weight for age would not
be very rosy.
Just what Requital would do at weight
| for age with The best horses in England
| is an interesting problem, and, as Mr..
Belmont is likely to own him before long,
| he may send him over, as he gives every
| promise OF developing into an even better
horse as three year old than what
he has been at two.
Myron McHenry is again out with the
declaration that John r. Gentry is the
fastest harness horse in the world, and
says he will surely go mile in two minutes
before the Snow flies. Gentry will have TO
chop many seconds off anything he has
yet done this year To fulfill McHenry's
prediction.
Mr.. Althousc is getting his speedy trotter
in sliapcto start him for the stallion record.
Directum's EOS IA is now the best stall
lion mark William Penn has gone mile
this year in 2:o7 / A.
Peter Duryea is out with the statement
that he will bet $40 COO that Augie D. and
Josie B. can beat the worlds team pacing
record. Honest George and Belize Ham
lin now hold this record. They earned it
2:12 1-4-at Providence in 1899.
The victory Of the two-year-old filly One
l Love in the Great Eastern Handicap on
Saturday has impressed many horsemen
with the belief that she can beat Requital
or any other colt of the year.
Racing operations are TO begin at Roby
again tomorrow under the. auspices Of
the Lake Side Jockey Club Nearly all of
the old Roby Fair Association officials are
to have similar positions with the new
tt &c 1ofy Inv
gers of the new that there is nothing in
the laws of Indiana to interfere with such
a meeting as they propose to run, and they
hope to have things going in old-fashioned,
easy way again shortly.
Great racers. however, are good things
TO own, but they are expensive luxuries
sometimes, says the ST. Louis Republic.
W. j. Spers has perhaps the fastest sprin-
ter In America in O'Connell The big
fellow is stabbed at the fair grounds, and
is carefully tended. All this costs Mr..
spiers quite n pretty penny, and he has
little chance TO get any of it back. for the
simple reason that NO owner at the fair
grounds will start horse against O'Con-
nell at any distance up 10 seven furlongs.
Day a after day O'Connelrs name appears in
the entries along with the other good
horses at the track, and people go out to
see the big fellow race, but they are almost
always disappointed. All the other horses
scratch out, and by noon only O'Connell is
left. The race is then necessarily declared
off.
