GOSSIP AMONG TURFMEN.
sTAYERs AND EARLY sPEED-THE AoUEDucT
MEETING.

Milton Young Is quoted follows: Hamburg is
a fast horse and hgh-class racer. but / do not
class him az a slayer" 1t would be difficult to con
ceive slayer under Milton Youngs standard
The philosopher OF McCirathana has repeatedly
stated that all his efforts in breeding were TOT the
purpose of securing early speed and counting re-
suits by the number OF two-year-olds bred at Nc
Grathiana that win races. The records show that
the best Of Hanove-'s get II 9ayers are counted
have come from mares owned BY turfmen VINO pred
them to Hanover. hence the oracle OF the biue
Grass region is not positive In his OPINION ol
the staying qualities Of the Hanovers. lhereI"'e
he is a bit doubtful about Hamburg. When Mar
Gus Daily purchased Hamburg he mapped out
plan OF campaign with him. He decided to start
him IN three races the Belmont the Realization ana
the Brighton Cup Mr.. DAILY believed that MS
horse could win all three OF them. III hamburg
succeeded in accomplishing this task he was to be
retired TO the stud either In this country or IN
England. II in the latter country Hamburg was
TO be put In training ard started in race to snow
tho British turfmen what sort of a horse had been
sent over to mate with the English mares that were
to be bred TO HIM HamburGs uraccountaoie haSco
in the Belmont caused slight change to be made
In Mr. Days plans. The reports spread by Dusy-
bodies that Hamburg had broken down caused MIN
to be started at the Brooklyn meeting to show the
public that he was sound and all right lie was
started I'm the Swift Stakes at Sheepshead bay
merely TO give him breather previous to the Re-
azation. Hamburg started In five races TINS year
four OF which he His victory in the Reanza-
ton followed by his easy galop for the brighton
CUP stamped him slayer. while every I'M
ptriudiced turfman acknowledges that he Is the
sperdiest horse on the turf to-day. -, ~ -.
