New York. Aug. 15.-James r.
Keene's declaration that he will try
for the English Derby next year, but
that his candidate will not be Syson-
by. for whom he refused 100000,
leads to the belief that the colt which
the veteran turfman has in mind for
the great race is Sysonby's superior,
the Kingston colt, Butcher.
Butcher has shown Trainer Jimmy
Rowe better class work than did Sy-
sonby, and from the owners boast it
is presumed that Butcher is more
highly regarded. Butcher is eligible
for the English Derby of 1905. too
The coming appearance of Butcher
is being awaited with no little interest.
Butcher will be raced late in the
current meeting and through the au-
tumn sessions at Coney Island and
Morris park. If this son of Kingston
races uD to expectations he will be
shipped to the old country in October
as was Aceful two years ago.
