defeat Jack Point The Kentuckian, provided
that he is well trained and well ridden? And Kin

IS that the Brighton Handicap this year not
an honest race and the Suburban was not an hon

such wonderful patience and good humor while II
has been deluded and deceived and heeced the
turf, got nauseous dose this season IN the Brook
