and take a shy al Miss DE Forest (3),
2:O5 IL the best thrce-y year-old PAGER out
| in 1911. Such as she come high. like
the slx-buttoned glove, but some one will
get her. and why not some ambitious
Washngtonlan?
HaiIworthy. the sensation of 1910, will
also be seeking for a new owner. His
races Of 1911 would indicate that he is all
in as a Grand Circuit performer, but he
should make some one a great fun horse.
One of the best and fastest fOur-year-o -olds
of 1871 was Don Labor, 2:05 Ia; in fact,
he is phenOmenally fast. but he is to line
up with the others already mentioned
BervaIdo. 2:Os Ia one of the most re-
markabe trotterS this country has pro-
duced, is again to go to Madison Square
The auction ring will he no strange sight
for him. There are some good races in
him yet, if the man who buys him gets
the combination he works under with
him He is one Of those peculiar horses
that have to be balanced to a nicely to
do his best.
The fast. but erratic The Huguenot,
2:O7 81, and the fast and consistent
Creighton, 2:OS IL, are also slated for the
high dollar. If any one in the District
of Columbia is anxious to own a two
minute PAGER Ess II. Kay. 200 "a, should
about fill the BILL for he is going to be
sold. 'Even the unbeaten Direct Hal.
2:O4 IA. Is not to be spared. AS far as
the highly bred young things are con-
cerned, there will be plenty of them
ga athered from the different points of the
country for buyers to bid on. If by
any chance any one of the horses named
should come to Washington its buyer
should be met on his return with the
Marine Band. and piped of to the ad-
miring multitude. 1t is to be feared,
however, that the famous musical organi-
zation will remain in its headquarters.
Cheap junk seems to be the order Of the
day al this point, and then some more.
And while on the subject of COrbin,
there is every evidence that he will be
out in 1912 with a stable OF excellent
prospects. 1t Is almost certain that he
is to have Russell Cozine, 2:1S IA. and
possibly, Palm Cozine, provided he will
stand training; also the four-year-old
Wolverine, that is faster than Palm
Cozine at the same age; Berka and Won
March. He will be open for new and un-
tried prospects, one of which will prob
ably be the fve-year-oId Cozine stallion,
owned by William Waters, of Leonard
town. that is a very promising PAGER.
Corbin has not decided, as yet, at which
track he will train in 1872 but at present
he inclines toward the mile ring at
Laurel. Efforts will be made to have him
choose the Sansbury track at Forest
willie.
II local horse owners will consent and
turn their horses over to Mr.. Corbin in
the fall. instead Of in the spring, as is
the usual custom, there is no good rea-
son why he should not be able to increase
the eIrning capacity of these horses. AS
n usUal thing, horses can be logged in
this latitude all OF the winter months
and gradually prepared for spring en-
gagements. Much Of the conditioning
process can be had by racing them once
a week or every other week In May
and June, with few workouts between. |
Then with the horses rested for two or.
three weeks in the month of July, with |
the exception Of their usual weekly work. |
outs, the same horses should be able to
go through the remainder Of the seasons
