they are likely to be very conspicuous

good.
Miss Rowena has won a number of
races in fast time, while Briar Sweet
| clased the season as the champion
filly of the year, with IS firsts and two

| races; Sorrow showed considerable
class in the West; Mary Black won
six furlongs on a heavy track in 1:19R,
beating TraverseT and Satsuma, and
| the same distance in 1:141a, beating
Belle of Memphis, Timemaker and 9th

| Western fillies. having to her credit the
| Kentucky Oaks, one mile and a six

well as speed.
Komuras ali was a good campaigner
and won a number of races. She won
the Sea Gull Handicap, one mile. in al,
beating Sailor King, Whistling Coon
and others, and one mile in 1:401a. The
number of races run by Komurasalli
prove her of the wear and tear kind.
and the number she won indicates good
quality.
Alleviate was perhaps the best Q
year-old filly of 1897 in the West, hav-
ing started six times, won five. and
second in the other. To her credit this
year are seven furlongs in 1:2SA, when
she beat Martha H., Lillian Bell and

the Englewood stakes, one mile, in
1:40A, and the Rayshore stakes. six fur
longs, in TIA. beating Trolley, Handsel.
Martha II. and others. Lenney won
one mile in 1:44 3-5, beating Sly Fox
and ether racers which entitle her to
rank among the good 3-year- old fillies
of the season.
Kenmore Queen won six furlGngs in
lis and left In her wake Tillo. win
ner of the Suburban Oviatt and Rotter-
dam, and the Hunter Handicap. one
mile and a furlone over the hill, at
Morris park, in 1:55ia. with Laverock
st. Callatine, Lillian Belle, Martha II.
and Clonsilla behind her. Other FLIES
worthy of mention are Found, Hurry
Burly, Tabouret Belle of Memphis.
Daisy F., Torsida, Lady Ellerslie and
Ollie Dixon Barring Briar Sweet, the
balance are fairly well matched. and
the filly contests of next season should
be unusually interesting, and as to
class they will bear comparison with
former years.
