Superintendent Richard PendinS'
contends that not before in the last
10 days of March history of Prince,
Georges Park has a Bowie colony
been so we'll advanced. and he at
tributes this to the good weather
that, obtained through the winter.
There were occasional bad spells.
but they didn't last long.
Aucilla. brother of Leochares and
Bromo. which George Brenton
wintered at Manassas for c. c.
Smithson. of Washington. has been
working halves in AZ and fraction
and 4S and a fraction for two
weeks. He. turned five furlongs in
1:01 is Thursday.
II he holds this edge. Brenton
will start 4lim i'll the Inaugural
Handicap. $4,000 dash of six fur
longs for 3.year~olds and over, that
will be the first days feature.
Aucilla generally wins at Bowie,
spring and fall. He looks good.

bought last fall at Joseph e.
Davis wedding out sale, is doing
halves I'm 49 and 80. Storm =.

RrentOn wouldn't have got him
for 1850.
Ilayflower. daughter of Playfel-
low and Jnneflower, a fily of which
LOT was expected last spring when
she was ?. can get three fuflongs
any morning in better than Sc sec
onds. Brenton is hoping that one
day she will carry her blazing speed
farther than three furlongs. There
is little nourishment racing for
horses that can't get farther than
three furlongs nowadays. in spite of
the fact races generally are con-
tested over shorter distances than
ever before.
