Trainer Karrick a Special Racing Plates and Knows When to Use This or That Kind. Pi iruisi've saay tiveg, vat bay to make an easy living, but Billy Karrick, trainer of the W. R Coe horses, has been making !t a great @eal harder than it ordinarily should be. Karrick has had about the biggest @eason of any the so-called fashion- able stables this year, principally be- cause he is an expert in his line, and again because he pays a lot of atten- tion to his job, He handles the big stable in his care as a successful man- ager might run « well organized busi- ness. Besides, Karrick knows all the ‘angles of the racing game, in duding its inconsistencies, and its consequent alibia. But it is by reason of his ex- tracrdinary knowledge of horses’ foot- wear that he shines. Karrick knows ‘when smooth plates are best to use on his steeds and when bar plates or a heavier variety will put his horses in a do or a don't mood. He js a specialist on this subject, to which most of his success is possibly due, but unfortunately for the public, the players of races, nobody knows just when Mr. Karrick is going to change plates on his starters or what effect the change is expected to pro- duce on the horses. For instance, Over There, who won 4n his previotis stunt the day that ‘Thunderclap handily beat him at o mile. Saturday he wore specially las calculated to keep Bath ee aear, once e a mile v4 furlongs as ie were play for him.
