SINCLAIR'S FUTURE ON TURF UNCERTAIN ¢ | Racing Stnnx to Be Sold, but Breeding Farm and Three Great Sires to Be Kept. By the Associated Press. SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y., August 26.—Whether Harry F. Sinclair's re- tirement from thoroughbred racing would be a permanent or & temporary affair was a matter of much conjecture today. Sinclair's Rancocas Stable is to pass from the picture September 3, when the stable's 36 horses in training will be sold. Friends of Sinclair say, however, that his green-capped silks will be on the turf again mext year and point to his large breeding farm at Jobstown, N.J., where more than 100 mar.s, yearlings and weanlings are quartered. Sinclair refused to discuss his future plans when he announced his retire- ment, “because he was unable to give his stable proper attention,” but his | | three great Sires, Zev, Lucillite and | Bud Lerner, will not be sold.
