See Lee Tide will probably be Mr..
Looks starter in the Kentucky Futurity
this year.
With the conspicuous exception of
Murphy's unbeaten filly Eunice Bell.
2 :0S A-she moved the last half in ;Vl
at Toledo-the three-year-olds that have
started in races at Cleveland and Toledo
do not look like sensational young trot-
ters. The season Is young, however. and
the first Futurity Is still more than
month in the future. so that ample time
is left for uncovering some record break
ers. So much is expected of the colt trot-
ters nowadays that unless they are rae
ing right around 2 06 they no longer at
tract much attention. The fastest trial re-
ported thus far this season was made at
Toledo by the bay filly The Great Rose,
daughter of Peter the Great, 2:07H.
and Rose Watts. 2:10. by Gen. Watts,
2:06a4. Cox worked her in 2 :07 just be-
fore she was sold by her breeder, S. A.

starters that he will be held personally
responsible for any Justification of the
time announced at meetings where he

ization would make hit with the better
element in harness racing If 1T would
notify owners and trainers generaly
that any horse in whose favor false time
is found to have been announced on any
,rack-IJnion. National or American
will be barred from all u. T. A. tracks.
Such notice might stir up the y. T. A.
and the A. r. A. to discipline some OF
those Kutztown timers.
Peter Manning t2:02h) will not
start in a race this season even II an
opportunity offers, according to reports
from the Grand Circuit. Murphy mas
decided 1t is said, to hold him over TOT
the 2 .05 class next year. He Is ikeiy
to start against time at the second
cleveland meeting and the railbirds are
pred letting a record of 100 or better IL
he does. Arion Guy q 2:04A) is looked
upon as another 100 trotter in Murphys
stable, and he may start to beat the
four-year-olds record of Peter Volo
q :O2) before the season ends.
Prospective scarcity of horses at the
Western fairs is leading some Of them
to bid high for the campaigners this
year. Des Moines, Ia, has opened ten
more races with an entrance fee OF Sl3
and $1,000 added in each race, while
Hamline. Mimi, will give away $4,000
in added money for nineteen races at
the Minnesota State fair The total
amount of added money at the Iowa
state fair is $4,000. Smaller fairs in
Iowa are giving from s400 to $1,000
in added money for each race. What
would the old timers who always paid
10 per cent. entry fees say to this ap-
proach of the harness racing millen-
mum?

Frank p. Walker. whose sudden ILL
ness necessitated his surrender of the
starters fias at Toledo on Wednesday
has been giving the word Go" to
Grand Circuit trotters for thirty years
or more. Perhaps no other man In the
history of horse racing has served
longer with more uniform satisfaction
to horsemen.
The Grand Circuit trotters and PAGERS
