RESUMING that many good two-year-olds aro yet to be shown, this racing season seema particularly promising for high-class juvenile sport. Although it is only ten days old, gany good youngsters have been seen under silks, but among the fourteen winners up to date, those of stake calibre might be pumbered on the fingers of one hand. Up to Saturday's racing Lent Misha, winner of the Juvenile, ap: peared the speodiest of all, but in Foxhall Keene's Disguise filly, Lorac, shown that day, he seems to have a formidable rival, Not since Lena Misha’s juvenilo has a more impres- sive victory been recorded than that , of Lorac. Starting for the first time, , and admittedly green, she broke from the barrier ti veteran and smoth- ered her fleld with speed, She just romped home with ridiculous ease, like 4 champion beating selling plat- ers. A meeting of Lorac and Lena Misha would be interesting. Outside of Lorac and Lena Misha, Malachite, Ormesdale and Weaona look the best of those seen up to the John'G.
