NEW YORK, June 29.-Burgomaste
is done with racing. The great Ham
burg colt was not training satjsfactor-
lily and would not appear this summer
has been confirmed by no less a person
than John ". Rogers, his trainer. Rog
ers is satisfied that Burgomaster will
not stand training and he is to be re.
tired 20 the Brookdale Stud. Whether
he will stand al Brookdale, where mis-
daddy is the star boarder and where the
distinguished Irish Lad and the royalty
connected Sandringham are domiciled
has not been determined. But he Will
roam the Brookdale meadows at viii
this summer and begin his stud career
next spring.
The big brown has not yet fallen
lame. Mr. Rogers is convinced, how
ever, that ne would break down utter.
ly if worked swiftly and he does not
see the use of injuring such horse
BqTgomaster is TOO big to tram success,
fully on bad legs; as he weighs in the
always big horse and he acquired
enormous weight at Brookdale farm last
summer eating grass, They did not give
him a great deal Of grain at Brookdale,
because Rogers nted to keep as much
flesh of his bones as possible. Artful,
who bowed a tendon last spring, was at
BroolSdale with Burgomaster, and Rog-
ers took the two horses upon his re-
turn from Winter quarters at Aiken IN
April, thinking it possible that they
might train.
Hamburg has sent one great mare and
many good stations to the races since
his retirement to the stud in 1899, and
Burgomaster is undoubtedly the best of
his stations. That Burgomaster will
make good at the stud is safe betting.
Few OF the good horses of the line of
Hamburg, Hanover, Hindoo. Virgil and
Vandal fail. The names Of the brilliant
successes OF that family are legion. 1t
is the stoutest line in the American stud
book
The most brilliant of English three
year-olds, Richard Croker's Orby, the
Epson Derby winner, inherits Hanover
blood through Rhoda B., his dam. Rhoda
B., was a daughter of Hanover. To-
gether with the blood OF Hanover, Bur
Reel, the dam of Hamburg, that of
Domino, Correction, Commando, Yankee,
Disguise and Peter Pan.
Hurley Burley. the dam Of Burgo;;
master, has mixture Of English and
American blood in her veins. She was
daughter of Riley and a granddaugh
ter of Longfellow. Her first dam was
Heller Shelter, by Pell Nell, and her
second dam was Encore, by Cymbal.
There is a full brother to Burgomas-
ter in the Whitney stable called
Burgher, and mis- people expect him to
make good shortly. He has not been
rushed to the races this spring, because
he is colt of great size. Rogers in
tends to give him time 20 develop.
Burgher has been in the paddock sew
eral times this spring, getting used to
the excitement, and he has been much
admired,
