j.. II. cuthill last week shipped his
mare Cereal, by Borea1, dam by Ham
brine, to w. j. Andrews, and a letter
from the driver of champions an
nounces that she arrived safely in But
falo, N. Y. In Mr.. Andrews's hands
this daughter Of Boreal should take a
record OF 2:OS or better if the clever
trainer tai teach her to overcome the
habit of breaking. Cereal, however,
should not be held responsible for her
unsteadiness of last season, for II was
often apparent that her driver did not
thoroughly understand her. At Pough-
keepsie, n. Y, she was timed separate
ly in 2:13, and 1t was the general
opinion that shes could nave trotted a
mile that day close TO 2:10 had she
been driven to her limit. On a half
mile track she trotted the last half of
a mile i'm 1:0i. and his out in third
horse place. No doubt, Cereal will
prove one of the good things that will
race through the Grand Circuit this
season. That she will is certainly the
wish of Mr.. Cuthill's many friends, for
there is not a man in this city who
will pay more for a good -%trotter and
accept disappointments more good
naturally. This was testified to when
he paid a big price for Prince of Orange
(2:06A), only to have him prove a ran
failure for the purpose he was pur-
chased-to establish, a track record at
Waverly track.
Mr.. Cuthill's c,lagrin N Prince of
Oranges utter failure to trot even a
respectable mile reached a climax
when he placed tho horse aboard the
cars and billed him to Dan Kane, who
is conducting a public training stable
at Cleveland, o., and then t~elegraphed
Mr.. Kane that he had shipped the
horse. Since The horse has been in his
former trainers stable he has taken
On fully 100 pounds of flesh, and the
Cleveland trainer is very optimistic as
to the horses future. He firmly be-
lieves he will reduce the present record
Of 2:06M, and in fact has written that
he will surely drive the son of India
a mile in 2;05. However this is not Just
what Mr.. Cuthill desires. He is espe-
cially anxious to have Prince of Or
ange trot a fast mile on the local half
mile track, and has advised Kane to
have the horse ready by the middle CT
August to come here and redeem him
self, and then a fast mile on a mile
track a be tried, after which Prince
will be retired to the private stable
to be driven on the road, at which he
is ideal.
Mr.. Cuthill gave Trainer Andrews,
Cereal, with no orders.
Just use her as if she was your
own" said he, land send me your bill.
Enter her where you think best. and
race her to suit yourself. All | ask is
a fast record, and then send her home.
Cereal is destined to become a broo1-
mare and will be bred to Peter the
Great. Mr.. Cuthill is gradually breed
ing more extensively each year, and
1t would not be a surprise to learn he
a purchased a farm. This week he /
is sending two mares to Boston, Mass,
to the court of Cochato. They are
Queen Medic 20. 2:26@ 0uIl sister to
Peter Stirling (3), 2;11A), by Baron
dam Medic. This mare is now
in o a to The Able go, 2:10A, a full
brother to the ex-world's champion
trotter, The Abbot, 2:031S. When Train
or Chandler had Queen Medic 1t was
his opinion that she was equally as
good as his great colt-trotter Ed
Custer, n a mile close to 2:10 was
believed possible for her, but since Mr..
purchased her she has had
practically no training, hence her rec
ord had not been reduced. The other
mare or, l should say. filly. for she is
only three years old, is Cito Ga Latin
word meaning move quickly. by Bin
gen, dam Rubber. 2:10, by Wilton, that
a great race mare in her day.
10 the close observer of pedigrees it
is evident that Mr.. Cuthill has selected
