RECORD ENTRY FOR
BELMONT STAKES
Earlocker Says Sport Next
Season Will Equal That Of
the "GOod Old Days"

A. Mel Earlockrr, racing secretary of
the Westchester Racing Association, de-
clared yesterday that the sport next
year promises TO be a record breaker.
He said he had received large number
OF entries for tho various stakes which
closed last Friday for the Belmont Park,
spring meeting ut will be several DAYS
before we will have them so arranged
as to give out the exact number" he
said, but / am confident that several
stakes Will have an unprecedented entry
''rhe quality will be OF the best. Sell
dom in the history of the turf has a
season passed that left SO much good
material as 1918. The racing this year
was the best in n decade and 1t prom
ises to eclipse evel the good old days
in 1919"
Tho events for which nominations
closed Friday were the Metropolitan.
the Suburban and the Tobogan. the three
big handlcaps for horses three years old
and upward, which have always called
to the post tho cream OF the year.
Others for which subscriptions were re-
quested include the Ladies' Handicap,
the Harlem and the Hollis Selling
Stakes and the events for those which
are now yearlings ana will be eligible
TO rug as two-year-olds after January
/, viz The Juvenile. the Keene Me-
mortal, the Fashion and the Bouquet.
Others for entire horses and mares
which are now yearlings are the Rel
mont and Withers stakes of 1920
Specific mention was made on the entry
forms in relation to the two above mem
toned stakes that geldings will not be
eligible.
The same phase will not hold In re
gard to the Lawrence Realization of
1920. in view of the fact that foal
entries were accepted last year for colts,
FLIES and geldings.
