under the new rule the judges have
absolutely no alternative. Once they
have suspended a driver that suspen-
sion stands until the officials of the
National Trotting Association take
action. And horsemen, having good
animals in training, in order to pro-
tect themselves will, in many cases
make their entries instead of permit
ting the entries to stand in the name
of the driver.
Plans for Maggie Winder.
Jacob M. Winder of Bristol, Penn,
owner of the pacing FLY Maggie
Winder, 3, 2.06H, by Oratorio, 2.13A
dam Clara Direct by Direct, 2.O51s,
has high hopes that the filly this sea-
son as 4-year-old, will break all rec
Iords as pacing mare. She is now in
training at Memphis, Tenn, in charge
|of Henry M. Jones, who broke, train
ed and raced her in all her engage
ments in 1909, she not losing heat
or race. Mr.. Winder states that he
will stake her in all 2.06 and 2.O7
classes down the line this year, from
Grand Rapids, Mich, to Lexington,
Ky. Her first start will be at Grand
Rapids, in the Comstock $4,000 for
206 PAGERS. She is in the Nutmeg,
$4,000, at Hartford, ON Labor Day; the
King, at Columbus, and the Tennes-
see, at Lexington, Mr.. Winder also
states that it is more than likely that
the mare will be entered in the $4,000,
2.05 pace, the second week, at Co.
lumbus. If so, she will go against
George Gano, 2.04H, by Gambetta
Wilkes. Driver Jones says Maggie can
beat Gano if he cannot go better than
LIS.
Carroll to Be Kept a Year.
That extremely fast trotter, Car
roll, 2.09A, by McAdams, 2.1SA, out
of the old race mare, Caracalla, 2.1O,
by Patron, that charmed every crit
ical horseman who saw him race last
year, will not be raced at all this
season, his owner, the veteran Ohio
breeder, G. F. Emery of Cleveland,
thinks Carroll has a chance to even
tually put his name in the list of
trotters that have beaten 2.O5, and
believes he will be a much better
horse in 1911 if he is only worked
gently this season, than would be the
case If he was asked to race this year.
The son of McAdams was timed in
about 2.07 at Fort Erie last summer
when he was beaten less than IL
lengths by Bob Douglas in a race
that stands as the fastest four-heat
race on record. Carroll ran out all
last winter, but is now being logged
and he will be gradually keyed up for
extreme speed work, the aim being
to get him up to his best form in time
to give him few fast miles just at
the close of the season. Then he will
be let down and wintered carefully
with view of having him in the best
possible shape to go out and make a
campaign in 1911.
The Duplication Of Names.
Will not some publication take up
the matter consisting of this dupli-
cation of names? asks a correspon-
dent of Trotter and PAGER Here we
have a Jean Vatican out in California
racing, and apt to be prominent, yet,
back in the early '90s both j. J..
Bowen and John Cheney raced we'll
the big bay son of Crittenden, the
original Jean Vatican, PA, made in
1894 at Providence. John Cheney
marked the horse. 1t certainly seems
that he is entitled to consideration,
and the name very properly is his
| by right of merit, as well did he de-
fend his ground in races when at his
| best.
There was natty little chestnut
mare at Brockton last fall, and l re-
greet her name is Maud S. OF course
| so many years have passed since
both Maud S. and Jean Val Jean, the
originals, raced, no one will mistake
these latter-day editions for them
yet, just consider for one moment an
inquiry in last weeks Trotter and
PAGER, wherein someone desires in
formation about the PAGER Charlie B
the editor answers: There are six
PAGERS in the list named Charlie B. y
AS the years stretch we certainly will
have Charlie BIS by the dozen.
Presumably, it is useless to sug-
