Beckkham of the Waggoner Estate and Texas Jockey Club, who is actively in charge of preliminary | nominations and arrangements for the Southwest Thoroughbred Breed- ers' Futurity. | The Breeders’ Futurity is an an- nual Fall fixture at the Texas Jockey Club’s meeting at Arlington Downs. Fifty-three Texas- and Oklaho- ma-bred juveniles remain as poten- tial candidates for the 1936 Futurity which promises to develop into an event comparable with the rich Eastern juvenile classics. The interest in breeding of thor- oughbreds is clearly shown by the nomination of 81 for the 1957 Fu-/ turity. George B. McCamey of the Bedford Stock Farms has nominated five. F. B. Koontz, master of the Paulfred Farms near Tulsa, has 10 potential candidates, all by Witchmount. Col R. B. George, Dallas enthusiast, has 8 foals nom- inated, and the W. D. Reynolds Trust nominated three. The Waggoner’s Three D's Stock Farm will rely on 13 prospective racers, including 5 by Phalaros, cn? by Quarte Bras II, out of Canfli, two _ by Stamford, and four likely young- | sters by Liberty Limited, now re- presented for the first time. The Liberty Limited youngsters are out of Flivver, Girl Scout, Handy Man- dy and High Flight, and all are standouts in the new Three D crop| of yearlings. Woodward and Smith, now racing ' as Valdina Farms, will have 12 youngsters to choose from, and these all are by that noted sire, Chicaro, and raised on the Running W ranch at Sabmol Texas. SPORT SLANTS The “iron men” of baseball. toot-| ball or hockey have little edge, if! any, on the “iron man” of America’s harness horse racing game—W.

An ardent follower of the harness- horse racing game and owner him- self of a large stable of standard- bred horse-flesh, Reynolds is now in his favorite winter haunt, Orlando, Fla.,, working the youngsters at Seminole Driving Park, a private | track which he owns. There each winter the kings and | queens and prospective champion pacers and trotters of the Grand | Circuit are quartered. Like the average trainer and driver, Rey- nolds, who is no weakling of a man and boasts a ruddy complexion to substantiate his healthy look and | weight of 220 pounds, is up every mcrmng and at the winter training | track at 6 or 6:30 o'clock. Workout Plus Ten Miles | He will work several horses from his own stable quartered there now, which includes 12 yearlings in the lot, and then is ready for his daily saddle horse ride of 10 miles or more. The veteran trainers and drivers, all i his close friends, are always ready | to admit his superiority as an “iron man” for punishment so far as | training horses is concerned. Reynolds thoroughly believes in BELIEVER | N SOUTHERN TRAINING FOR TROTTERS WE 4 OWNS A PRUATE TEACIC __==L_”_<, AT ORLANDO, FLA - “It is best for driver and trainer | as well as for the horse,” he says. “Proof is shown in the results in the spring and summer meets. The | better class of horses trained here at Seminole Park during the winter season are ready when the first of the spring meets comes around. The trainer who stays in the north doesn't know whether his horse at that time of the year is ready or not.” Reynolds has three-year-old trot- ters in his southern stable, all of them excellent prospects for the coming season at Lexington, North Randall in Cleveland, Goshen and elsewhere. The best of the trio is Natalie Gray, half-sister of the great Greyhound, which won the Hambletonian Stake classic last year and which is also spending the winter at Seminole Park. Next to Natalie Gray is Harvere and then Schnapps. Prize Stable-Mates For stall-mates, the trotters and pacers of Reynolds have the best of harness-horse company. Besides Greyhound there is Rosalind, the Lexington, Ky., filly, which cleaned up the “youngsters” events of counting the Junior Futurity at through the dirt roads of Virginia|the winter training program in mellflxmeton:mong her victories where he was born, Reynolds today’ L T T |||IIIIIIIIII|||IIIIIIIIII!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!IIIIIIIllllllllIIIII|IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!IIIIIII|||||IIIIIII|HIIIIIIIB RE SAVE south for the harness horse.
