OWNER O'NEILL
BACK IN THE SADDLE

NEW ORLEANS, March 16-Frankie
O'Neill returned to the saddle yesterday.
He had the mount on Royal Breeze in
the fifth race at the City Park track. 1t
was his first public effort horse since
the day last summer when he announced
his retirement a jockey.
ONeill's return is only temporary He
was forced into the saddle by the scarcity
of good jockeys. His three colts (owned
jointly with Fred Burlew), Sir Toddington,
Judge Post and Gid, will start in the rich
City Park Derby today, and as the stew
ards have decided that the firm was not en-
titled to the services of Jockey Nicol,
O'Neill determined to resume riding rather
than intrust Judge Post, the main reliance
| of the stable. to an inexperienced jockey.
Royal Breeze might have won If O'Neill
| had displayed more courage. His absence
from the hurly-burly of a race has made
| him timid. When he got in tight place
| soon after the start he pulled his mount
! Meanwhile Rappahannock, with a clear
| track, opened up a big gap and led to the
( finish. He won by three lengths. Royal
Breeze secured second money.
The stewards of the American Turf AsSo-
| citation met yesterday afternoon and took
| up the Corrigan-McIntyre case. Corrigan
| had charged Jockey Mcintyre with pulling
| the two-year-old filly Notasulga. The stew
| ards of the City Park track refused to en-
| terrain the charge and refused to suspend
! the boy. This decision caused an open rup-
| ture between Corrigan and the officials,
which resulted in the resignation of Francis
Trevelyan and Mars Cassidy.
