NEW YORK, April 2o.-Though none
of the valuable -year-olds in the
stables of New York's millionaires have
shown so far at the Aqueduct meet
ing. two score or so OF priceless thor
ouRhbreds are now In point under tho
direction of the star trainers OF the
East. The checkers are getting line
on them, while by the time they are
ready to go to the races at Belmont
Park next month, the whole racing
world Will have q pretty fair idea!
OF Just who is who and what Is what
concerning these equine babies.
AS usual the chief trainers have the
best babies BY common consent, this
year is going to be a banner one with
the stable of Harry Payne Whitney,
SO far as two-year-old racing Is con-
cerned In years gone by. his Med
der youngsters stood as the Whitney
reliance, but another Richmond Is now
in the field. This is Sandrinsham.
This imported sire has sent about as
fine q lot OF colts and fillies to the
races this spring as ever went to the
care of Trainer John Rodgers.
"Prizes" Will Be Reserved.
The culls of the lot will be raced
late in the current meeting and at
Jamaica, but the prize Juveniles of
the "Eton blue" will be reserved for.
the opening at Belmont Park, where
the $4,000 Juvenile Stakes and the
$4,000 National Stallion Stakes are
sure to bring out the flavor of the es-
Establishment.
Rodgers thinks we'll of fi1ly by
sandringham who he thinks may wor-
thily fill the place left vacant by
Tanya tho celebrated Meddler mare
The namo Of this Sandringham miss
is Forge, dam the old-tirle steeplechase
marc, Forget. A bay lilly, by Ham
burg -Morningside. is also talked about
This fIlly is one OF the leggy upstand-
ing sort which will not come to hand
until the warm weeks Of June or July
Bonnie Star, chestnut filly, by Star
Shoot Bonnie Blue H., Is also the UP
OF the paddock. It appears that Rodg-
ers has a great band of FLIES, but Is
lamentably weak with the cold d.
vision.
Bar None Looks Good.
The best colt, SO far as recent works
indicate. Is a follow by Nasturtium-
Equality. He Is called Bar None. Ho
worked q very fast quarter for Rodg-
ers last Sunday. and the stable hands
are saving up to have flyer on him
In his first start. Yankee has not q
single exceptionally prepossessing son
or daughter In the lot. However. 1t
is a wise trainer who wlthholds a pre-
dictlon concerning this or that two
year-old until they get to the races,
foor many a scrawny one on the gallop
grounds amounts to q star When the
silks are up.
