TROTTER

Most of the local horses thai are

horses that are on the road have not
done particularly well, and unless
they show some improvement in form

soon.
Eclipse Acts. Like a Good Mare.
the black pacing mare Lady May.

been shipped back home. and the
chances are hat she will be kept
close TO Broadway" in the future.
Several of the horses that left this
city for the races looked like worthy
material, yet they We're asked to step
fast miles before they we're ready,
with the result that they failed to
make good and very likely spoiled
any chance they might have had
later in the season.
Eclipse Acts Like a Good Mare.
The bay pacing mare, Eclipse,
owned by Andrew Nicoll, of this city,
acts as If she had a chance to make
a fast mare. She is at this time
equal to a mile at 2:20, and can
brush an eighth close to Is seconds.
Judged by her actions in her work,
She will race with good Judgment.
and her way of going indicates that
she will not tire too soon.

Jersey Todd is back in the stable
of his owner, Louis Marder, and it
appears that the colt is the victim
of mismanagement rather than lack
ing the qualities that go to make a
racehorse trotter. The son of Todd
is nicely gated. but to a careful OBJ
server he has beer rushed in his
preparation and as a matter of fact
has been asked to do more than he
could accomplish, with the amount
of work that he has had.

All of the classes at Parkway have
filled well, and a high-class race
meeting is assured at the Gravesend
plant next week. Some local horses
are among the entries, but, judged by
