The Oihef ems . lpHHlefy slowcf moving
proposition that nevefthslesr tucked IN the
last quarter ~ his race jti@t a little hAl faster
than he put down the first one.
u liked this more deliberats coli better
than | did ths hashy. quick moving one,
a. any esp~erienced horselnnn would. He
dldn't win anything. worth Mentioning
during his tWo-leaf-old form, at that, but
he Was always climbing over the hacks ~
horrra at tho wind-up ~ his races, and the
bulldog style with which he btstet into the
money nearly every time after loanng at
the outeet from not knowing really what
was s1pected Of him made q he with me
u Jaw n winning, breezy. extremely
promising distance three-year old in that
one, whereas the faahiness Of the sprinter
didn't make much Of an appeal TO me. But
the owner OF these two cOlts was all for the
n that cut away on hia toes at the squeeze
Of the bulb and diszied b ones behind him.
He liked the fash things In horseiesh as
ST want that fellow entered for every
thing big 20 10 run next year no told me
when that season closed, Don't lot any
thing 20 by without pinning his name TO IL.
II anything was ever built TO clean up q
years list he's the one, and I want you TO
remember 10 get him into the vents without
worrying me TO recall closing days
That goes double, I suppose; you're
going to give IazYbones a crack at the
same stakes, aren't your | said, referring
to the sluggish two-year-old.
Certainly not. he chopped out rounding
on noe with a surprised look. 'You don't
want to believe all these yarns you hear
about my money-blowing stunts, l may
be a profigate, but I'm not setting a match
to any money II l know il. Give that lout
several thousands Of dollars worth OF enc
gagements? Stop fooling.'
THAT lout will be going on about his
business when the one that you're willing
to blow yourself on will be looking for a
assure In the track TO lie down in, | said to
him, and the young fellow with the large
wad jeered at me.
when entering time for the big events
came around | took the bit in my teeth
and chucked the slow beginning colt into
sprinter. and when my employer saw the
lout's name among the winter book entries
he tool a special mile-e-minute ride on his
buzz- wagon to dig me up at my barn and
o at me.
Il stood pat and told him that I'd hold
myself personally responsible for all Of the
entrance money that the lout didn't win back
and, although he had TO accept that as a
fair proposition. still me went away storm
ing that there wasn't any kind of a fool like
an old fool that's been too long in the rut
Of one business.
Il won a hatful Of midsummer and fall
stakes with the stretch running and rating
lout, whereas the fash colt turned out to
be one OF those Ga~llantry-bred quarter
horses of Texas that curled up like a piece
of loose isinglass any time q horse ran
along with him for a bit, and then turned
around and said to the contender, You can
have it!
Eggs is eggs and horses is horses, but
tie pretty hard to tell a man rugged with
millions anything like that. I suppose I'd
belong to the Show Me Association, too,
II / was fxed that way
