Both Lord of the Vale and Beldame are
entered to run in the colors of Mr.. Bel
mont. but the FLY will undoubtedly be
the one selected She is good, as good per-
haps. as she was at any time last year
when she sweeping the turf of it's rich
est stakes with such ridiculous ease, and
there are many who believe that she will
be the betting choice If she starts. Her
impost is 122 pounds. certainly crusher
for flly in a race like the suburban viii
be- but she is of undoubtful speed, class
and gameness. and will run good race
with any kind of racing luck. Racing luck
by the way. promises to cut good deal
of figure in the running of the race this
year.
1t Is highly probable that both Dainty
and Proper will be under the colors of W.
b. Jennings. the California turfman, and
the stable Will not want for followers. The
mare will have the comfortable impost of
ia pounds. while her bigger and more

well thought of in the Brooklyn, but was
a sad disappointment when the race was
run Since then, however, both horses have
shown vastly improved form and are likely
to figure more prominently in the Suburban.
X. L. wilson, jr s. colorS Will be carried
by Dolly Spanker and this shifty gelding
will not want for friends. His impost IS
III i'ounus, not too much for him, and
Gi''.er which he should perform credtably.
This same impost will be taken up by Il.
C. McDowels Alan-a-Dale, and all Ken
lucky will be here to have a bet the
great of Halma and Sadie McNairy.
When he came east his popular owner an
nounced that he had the Suburban winner
in his stable, and he has not seen fit to
change his mind since. There can be no
doubt but that Alan-a-Dale is as good
he ever was in his life, and he was always
of the highest class when good.
X
c. E. Rove IS represented in the race by
both Colonial Girl and First Mason, but
the chances favor the starting of the 10:
err. First Mason has not shown anything
particularly good since his arrival in the
east this year, while Colon =. Girl has
shown several very creditable perform
ances. She is an almost certain starter,
and with III pounds up she will be dam
gerous. Adbell which was recently pur-
chased from John Madden by E. E. Smath-
ers, but which was subsequently returned,
will carry the colors of Mr.. Madden, and
after his good showing made at Gravesend
during the early part of the meeting, when
he easily won at the handicap distance,
covering the route with more weight up by
several pounds than he will carry in Thurs
days event. certainly entities him to out
side consideration. His time In the race
referred to was 206 Is.
James r. Keenes Sysonby. which was
originally assigned 1O6 pounds in the race.
will have to take up an eight-pound PEN
atty In the Suburban. If he starts. by
son of his victory in the Metropolitan ham
dicap. 1t Is doubtful therefore If he will
start.
Capt S. S. Browns Broomstick. with 10
pounds up. will almost certainly be start
er. Since last year. when he shouldered 158
pounds and won the fastest Brighton ham
dcap ever run. the Of Ben Brush has
grown and developed wonderfully, and Is
better able to take up weight this year.
Another great four-year-old that Is likely
to make his debut in the Suburban is the
Goughacres stables Bryn Mawr, which was
retired early last season because of lame
ness. The big colt is said to have regained
his old-time form again. however. and he
will carry equal weight with Broomsttck.
OF the three-year-o that are likely
starters and which look formidable are
Diamond Jim" Brady's Oiseau. which was
concededly the best Of the two-year-old
colts last season, and Tanya, one Of the
stars Of the Whitney stable and which re-
Gently demonstrated that she will be able
to carry his phenomenal speed over a route
by taking up 12l pounds and gailoping a
high-class lot of tnree-year-olds to stand
still in the running Of the classic Belmont
stakes, which she won in the fast time OF
2.0S-fast time over the Belmont Park
track Tanya would have carried ninety
nine pounds under the original weights. but
htI victory In the Belmont compels her to
take up a twelve-pound penalty, or Ill
pounds e she starts.
The Boston stables Ostrich, which ran
such good second to Delhi in the Brook
lyn, will probably be sent after the Sub
urban by his managers lie is in the big
race with ninety-two pounds, and there are
lots of bettors who will have flyer on
