This Mornings Work.


The horses were all out early, and were
cantered slowly and then breezed a quarter
through the stretch. All moved well and
| seemed absolutely fit to run.
There was a good attendance at the
track to watch the final work, and after 1t
was over and breakfast had been eaten
there was some talk about the race. Never
before in the history of the suburban has
there been such a strong favorite as DOM
mo, not one in a dozen trainers being will
ing to admit even a possibility of his de-
feat. A few said that Domino was not
bred to go the distance and that it would
be fourd that he Lad undertaken too much
to carry 123 pounds and run a mile and q
quarter against such known stayers as
Sir Walter AMI LaZzarone.
1t was conceded on all sides that the only
possibility of defeating the black colt lies
in a hot pace all the way and a weakening
on the part of the keene horse when the
last furlong comes. But no one can see
where the pacemaker is to come from. 1t
is not expected that Taral will take DOM
mo out at the start, as he has done in mile
races, and Sister Mary is the only possi-
bilty thought of in that respect.
Song and Dance is the light weight but
ne Is rater, and SO are the others, with
the exception of Rubicon, who likes short
races.
A slow race and sprint of half mile
or So, it is argued, make the victory
sure thing for Domino. barring accidents,
the only horses of the lot likely to be
with him at the end in such a race being
Rubicon and Sir Walter.
Domino the Favorftc.
Domino will probably go to the post at
to in the betting, although as good as
to was laid yesterday. Taral knows
him thoroughly and will be sure to ride him
from end to end in the best way for the
horse, and the jockey rarely makes a mis-
take. The colt has yet to make his mark
at mile and quarter the only times he
has been sent at over mile being at Chi
cago, when he was beaten badly at a mile
and half, but the start was delayed an
hour and a nalf and the colt was not in con-
dition; once at Gravesend, when he ran
mile and an eighth, and at Morris Park
when Henry of Navarro and Clifford beat
him badly at a mile and an eighth This
surely is not y remarkable showing for
suburban candidate.
Sir Walter a Slayer.
Sir Walter is a known slayer and can run
fast, too. He has taken up weight and
run mile and quarter close to record
time, and has repeated the effort when call
ed upon. AS far as he is concerned, the
race will not be over until the horses have
passed the judges. Doggett has ridden him
ever since he was broken, and can be de-
pended upon to get all in the horse ont of
him and ride for his life.
Lazzarone ran second in the Brooklyn
II ndiuiSdp anu Was expected TO WIN, but
Hornpipe was too much for him at the
weights; he carries but two pounds more
today. but he needs a pacemaller, and there
is more, with the possible exception of Sis
ter Mary.
Rubicon tried a distance in ,he Brooklyn
handicap and did not like it, Mcdonald
has something up his sleeve generally, and
1t may be that 1t is there today. His only
chance, however, is thought to be a brush
in the stretch with Domino
Declare has not shown suburban form
this year, and the starting of Song and
Dance is very doubtful
Thus the contests seem to be narrowed
down to Domino. Sir Walter, Lazzarone and
Rubicon, and the possibility is that they
Will be the only starters, although it was
said this morning that Ramapo might be
sent to the post at the last minute
