Knowledgeable horsemen and
those who occasionally like
their oats out of another
stables trough have been
beating the roads this week
end on the Virginia Year
ling Tour.
No one will admit how
many yearlings have been
sold by this preview of stock
slated for the Saratoga sales
later in the summer. The
Virginia tour, started a few
years ago, has its drawback
for some breeders since many
of the thoroughbred young
sters have not filled out this
early in the season.
Back to MiddIeburg
However, the tourers, who
come back to roost in the
Middleburg area late this
afternoon, will have added
poundage that they would
probably love to sell to the
breeders. For two days they
have been eating and drink

have to offer as well as look

the farms have had on pa
