GRIER and MAN O. WAR
Trainer Rowe Hasn't Decided Whether or MOI
He'll Send Good Colt to Post Against
Riddle Champion
Blu Vincent Trednor.


IT is almost a certainty that Trainer
Jimmy Rowe will send out Harry
Payne whitney's good three-year-
old, John p. Grier. tomorrow to
measure strides with the great Man
O. War in the Dwyer Stakes. Rowe
isn't in the habit Of announcing his
racing plans in advance and when we
asked him whether or not the colt
would start tomorrow he said he
hadn't decided yet, but his tone in
dicated that John p. Grier wouldn't
dodge the issue.
Jockey Hummer thinks your colt
wonder" We remarked. "The boy
said in our presence after he won
with him on Thursday that John Il.
Grier wasn't let down at all to beat
DonnaconA and that he thought he
was a Man o. War during the running
Of the race"
Rowe laughed. 'Kummer IL kid
ding" he said. He wants me to run
so an TO make a good race of 1t to-
morrow. l know that my colt had
rather an easy time OF 1t Thursday.
but he wasn't running against any
Man O. Wars"
John p. Grier Is about the only
three year-old shown 80 far this sea-
son that seems To have a chance Of
making Man o. War extend himself.
The Triple Springs Farm put over
two winners yesterday in Penrose and
King Agrippa, the latter graduating
from the maiden ranks at five years
old. Judging by the hollow victory he
scored In the fifth race It Is hard TO
understand why he remained a
maiden so long. The race won by
Penrose was the more important OF
the double victory for the stable. The
nimble footed filly ran as she used IL
do as a two year-old. She got away

proposition in almost any company II

far.

a good chance to win. She went
