RACE is at a mile and an eighth, and is
worth 81 25 to the winner. Sixteen
horses are still eligible TO start, and If

Recent adVices from Memphis are To
the effect that Lieber Karl has wintered
well, and that his appearance and work
more than sustain his brilliant 2-year-
old promise. Wilson, which will carry
the Schorr colors should muddy condi-
tions prevail. has shown by his per-
formances at New orleans the last
month, that he is a dangerous horse in
any kind of company. Soft going. how
ever, is his forte. and, like Il duck HI.

Bannockburn, winner of the Louisville
Futurity, was one of the sensational
youngsters of 1897. Bannockburn made
successful debut at the Little Rock
meeting, but his next three attempts
were forlorn ones, and Mike Dwyer de-
clined to complete the option he had on
him. For his present owner, ''Umbrel-
la McGuigan, Bannockburn won five
races off the reel at the Memphis meet
ing, Vanquishing, among others, lsabeN
and Swango. As the season ran along
Bannockburn appeared to gradually
wear himself out, and his retirement TO
winter quarters was an ingiorious one.
Michigan is a wonder, however, in get
ting the right Kind of flesh on a horse
and If ne sends the son of Hayden Ed
wards to the post he will undoubtedly
finish within the money.
! lsabey was colt from which much
was anticipated in the early days of
last season. He disappointed his ad-
mirers, and, as Bannockburn beat him
in the race he will probably not see the
post If Lieber Karl and the Michigan
colt are both fiji and we'll Swango
