The good looking Rancocas colt in two seasons on the turf has won $174,918 and he seems almost sure to go beyond the record of Man o' War, whose earnings of $249,465 made him the greatest winner of the American turf. Zev, like his illustrious opponent in the coming race, is a royally bred colt. In his veins is some of the best blood in the world. He is by The Finn—Miss Kearney, his sire having been a famous stake winner in his day. The Finn's sire and dam were Ogden and Livonia, while Miss Kearney is by Planudes-Court Plaster. Ogden and Livonia carry to Zev the blood lines of such famous racers as Ben d'Or, Isinglass, Rayon d'Or, Doncaster and Isonomy, while thru Planudes and Court Plaster he has the} = Strains of the blood of Galopin Nine Races for Zev This Year and St. Simon.
