AXIOMs WEIGHT.
There is more or less doubt about the weight
Axiom should carry in the race. II. q. CricKmore
has devoted much time to the adjustments OF the
weights for the Futurity candidates. Mr.. Crickmore
believes that Axiom is entitled TO all the allowances
,or being by a sire who had not sired winner. ana
q dam VINO did not produce a winner previous 10
January 1895 The allowances would make Axiom
weight 10 pounds. Axioms sire Maxim. was an
horse and might possibly have slred
horse that won a race previous to January l. 1885,
although James b. Haggin claimed five pounds
when the fly was entered for the Matron Stakes
