- BROOKLYN HANDICAP Is A AM ss PUZZLE TO RAGEGOERS. Public Performances and Trials for Next Thursday's Classic Put the Handicappers All at Sea in Efforts to Pick the Winner ‘ The Brooklyn Handicap becomes more @f s puzzle each day. Only & few dave ago one of the cloverest of trainers said to the writer of this column: “Blues will be a very hard borse-to deat in the Brooklyn, The performance of Blues yesterday ‘was good and bad. Hoe had all bis usuel speed and showed the way over the hill. But es soon as he ewung into the stretch he seemed to stop, and Injunction and Burmise both ran by him. Then he weemed to come on again, and half way Gown hed repasseq Injunction and at the end was only beaten two lengths by Gurmise. The race was run in record time by Surmise, who beat Ethelbert’s record by three-quarters of a second. Blues, there tore, must have run inside the record also. But, at the same time, that trick of stopping and coming on again will not gain Blues any friends. While the per- formance was a good one, the fact ls proven that Frank Weir has not made Blues lose his olq tricks. Blues always would work as kindly and as sweetly as any horse living, but when it came to racing he was freakish. Sometimes fe would run like & blue streak. At other times he would sulk and run thirty pounds below his form. Blues’s Strange Race, + The most mysterious part of his race yesterday was the fact that he was ap- parently coming on again at the end. This is not the way the Blues of last year raced. When he was done he was done to a turn. There was no hanging on at the end. It {s dificult to under- stand the performance of this horse, and his presence in the race will be a thorn in the sides of the other owners. | Tee Whitney candidates were out on Thursday and added to the pussling problem, Goldsmith, Gunfire and Irish Lad were all let down at a good clip Irish Lad has not heretofore been re- garded seriously, but his trial was an eye-opener for the track watchers. Afri- cander was also worked on the same day, and he furnished a corking good trial. Pentecost was shown yesterday at Westchester, and ne ran a cracking good race. It is said, however, that he is being pointed for the Suburban and not the Brooklyn. Yardarm will be Mr. Thomas's candidate in that stake. Yardarm Will Be Hard to Beat. ‘Take Goldsmith, Gunfire, Irish Lad, Articulate, Yardarm, Blues, Africander, Bonntbert and Herbert and you have about as tough a proposition as ever faced a handicapper. Yardarm will take some beating. This colt {s about as sweet a proposition as has been seen this season. His two races were nothing but gallops, and the last performance wes & mile in 1.4. A colt of great early peed, he Js likely to go away and tin- can in that choppy space-devouring stride of his that may carry him tho entire route in front. It is true Irish Lad held Yardarm safe as a two-year- old, but great changes take place be- tween two and three-year-old form. For instance, River Pirate and Mex!- can always held Shorthose safe as two- year-olds, but now (as three-year-olds Shorthose appears to be the master of doth. Irish Lad’s work would make it appear that he was as as he was in his two- -old form. With Gold- smith and Gunfire to rely upon it 1s rdly probable that Irish Lad will be t to the post, though the Whitneys have made ro declaration of their in- tentions thus far. ‘The Brooklyn grows 19, interest each day, and on Thursday it will present one of the most puzaling propositions racegoers have hed served up to them in many days, S LIVELY TRAINING WORK AT W (Special to The Evening World.)
