fairly alive with horses this morning, The
cracks of the powerful Madden Hitchcock
combination, representing value of fully
$500 at a conservative estimate, were
the center of observation. Salvidere the
champion of last year; Dandelion and Tan
gle, the handicap winners, as well as the
champion steeplechasers Good and Plenty
and Hylas. all getting useful work
Salvidere looks a grand three-year-old in
every respect. Trainer c. T. Patterson says
he has not had sick day all winter and
the developer Of Hamburg and Ornament
Is very proud of his illustrious charge.
Since he raced last fall Salyidere has mt
on flesh. and weighs 80 pounds more than
he did six months ago. Increased maturity
has, If anything, improved his taking ac-
ton. Even at slow cantering. all he was
given this morning, the great son of Relye-
dere showed his resolute style to perfection,
No one who looks at this famous colt can
fail to realize the great reserve power in
his powerful back, loins and quarters.
Judged by his looks Salvidere has not been
idle at Little Rock by any means, and he
can be got ready to face the barrier in
short order.

Dandelion, the Hamburg fve-year-old,
and Tangle, the speedy daughter of Med
dler. also show good effects from their win

purchased from T. c. Mcdowell last month
The four-year-olds The Quail and East
End are also in forward condition, the lat
ter, a handsome brown by Ogden, looking
SO well advanced that he may be selected

wintered at Billy Garth's Virginia farm and
were turned over to Patterson as soon as
