Stuart Richardson with Dan and Leno,
and Clonsilla- A brief study Of the
records of these foreign horses show
that the officers representing this
country have some hard work cut out
for them They have, however, been
preparing specially for this show. and
their horses are much better than those
shown in former years.
Entries in all classes have been sent
in literally. and the support given to
the harness, roadster, and saddle horse
classes are much better than last year.
In the harness classes there are many
new exhibitors, and these have collected
many new horses so that the old favor
ties will not have the easy times they
have had formerly. but will have 10 show
at their best to win.
President Alfred G. Vanderbilt has
entered literally. and will send eleven
horses from his Oakland farm.
