Odom will have the mount on Sysonby In
all probability as Redfern has not yet re-
covered from the effects OF q broken collar

country than Odonl. who has always enjoyed
the confidence Of the race going public. So
with the thousands that will be wagered on
tire colt who in the estimate OF Mr.. Keene
is a greater two-year- old than was the famous
Domino, the interests OF the public form
players will be in good hands. Fuller will
ride Wild Mint whose weight is III pounds.
Next in point Of favor come the three crack
fllies, Tanya. Artful and Rose Of Dawn. the
property OF II. B. DuryaR. Tanya has been
invincible ever since she first started at Morris
Park last spring She Is by Meddler-Hand-
spun. and has won big money in stakes. She
has carried weight and has won easily In
each instance, and is considered the best
ally of the year beyond the question OF
doubt. Tanya will pick up l24 pounds and
will be ridden by Shaw. Artful has run
several races. but has been held back in order
to allow a stable companion in each instance
TO win. She has a maiden allowance in con-
sequence and will carry ia pounds. She
is by Hamburg Martha H.. and has worked
over the Futurity distance in li2>+. with the
result that she Is regarded with much favor
by some OF the shrewdest turfmen. Harry
Cochran will have the leg up. Rose OF Dawn
by HamburR-Poetess, is a superb looking
fly and will carry ia pounds. According
TO plans laid down by Trainer Rogers. she
will be handled BY Eugene Hildebrand. the
star jockey. who Is under contract to the
Duryea stable. All three will surely start.
and they will be heavily backed. the odds
last night being about 81 to 1.
Third in the public's estimate are the
youngsters named by Sydney Paget, the

has won some splendid races and the colt
