ait) THREE MONTHS No Juvenile Champion Yet, But Bud Lerner’s Claim Is Still Strong as Any Racing Situation Is Most Per- plexing as Saratoga Sea- son Approaches. By Vincent Treanor. HVER tn the last fifteen yeare of racing on the metropolitan tracks has the situation affect- two-year-old champtonship heen so perplexing. The star of the Juvenile division after more than three months of racing is still un- known, although near stars are numerous. So far, however, John Madden has as good a claim on the honors as anybody with Bud Lerner, that good son of The Finn. Farly !n the we picked this colt as a prospective champion, but subsequent events made us weaken a bit on him Bud Lerner won only his secong feature of the season when he gél- loped home in the $7,500 Whirl Stakes at Yonkers, but his record for con- fistency 80 far is second to none. He has been bang up in every start since ‘Aig maiden effort at Jamaica, which he fotlowed with a clean-cut victory tm the Youthful. The latter stake meant early penalties. Since then tho Madden colt has been compelled to concede weight to some great rivals, and in view of his race in the Whirl these concessions just about what ing tne year heat him He was third to Sunference aud Cherry Pie in the Hudson, where he carried 127 to Sunference’s 112. He was third to Goshawk and Sunference tn the great American, where he con. eeded ten pounds to the winner, and fecond to Martingale in the Tremont wherein he gave the Cosden colt an- other ten pounds 1f Bud Lerner had escaped the weight penalties accruing from the early rum Youthful and met his rivals after that on even terms, he might have won the intervening events as he did the Whirl. He is a nice type of two-year old, one of those. which has an almost human way of fighting for victory. Hoe races with a willing- ness that in admirable, and is not easily discouraged by poor racing luck. Of course Saratoga is to come, when many of the supposed cracks whose training was interfered with through sickness, should be at their best. Bud Lerner may then find sierner opposition. The Spa as a rule has heen the meeting to furnish the two-year-old sensation of the year. Tt was there that Man O° War gave evidence of his great power, and last par the performances of Miss Joy d Morvich were the big features. As usual, the West will be on hand next month with a few youngsters Which they think will hold their own with the best of those which nave raced on the metropolitan tracks, The most prominent of the Westerners 6 the filly Anna M. Humphrey, by Po- ter Quince, and owned by J. C. Milan of Lexington. Milan is the same man who brought Miss Joy to the Spa last year to beat everything but Mor- vich, whom she did not meet. Mt- lan won The Flash with Miss Joy on gpening day and he has visions of making tt two straight with Anna M. Humphrey While the sport at Empire City has been good during the first eight days, there is much to come that should be attractive to the patrons of that popular course whose support ts not confined to New York alone, but extends into Connecticut and on holidays as far as the Massachusetts boundary. The fact that every part of the race can be seen at the Yonkers Plant is one reason for the popularity of the track which has James Butler for its presiding genius. Mile tracks of the type of Empire, Gravesend and Brighton Beach always have been to the liking of New York race-goers. The people get close to the horses while they are at the post, and dur- ing the actual ruhning of a race; it GUILLEMOT COMPETES, ALTHOUGH SUSPENDED PARIS, July 17.—Josef Guillemot, the French long distance runner, appeared at the Colombes Stadium and in- sisted on participating in the French Athletic championship games, notwith- standing the fact that he had been sus- pended last week for two months by the Athletic Federation because he partici- pated in an alleged outlaw meet in Bil- bao, Spain. The officials of the games permitted Guillemot to start in the 1,500-metre race pending further investigation into his Bilbao trip. Guillemot, however, finished last in a fleld of nine, in which the winner's time was 4 minutes & seconds, SS SADDLE CLOTHS TO BE NUMBERED IN BIG POLO MATCHES HERE ‘Taking a leaf from intercollegi- ate football, the Polo Association has decided that in the forthcom- ing international polo matches at the Rumson Country Club, the Philadelphia Country Club and the Meadow Brook Club all saddle eloths will be numbered, This is of the greatest importance to the spectators, enabling them to pick out individuals and distinguish the players who score the goals and make the brilliant dashes down the field, In polo, more than in any other sport, are distinguish- ing marks necessary, if for no ether reason than the great dis- tances which separate the specta- tors from the contestants, gives them a more intimate knowl- edge of the thoroughbreds and their characteristics. During the week beginning to-day some of the best stake fixtures ar- ranged by Secretary Schaumburg will have their decision. Chief among these are the $10,000 Eastview Stak: for two-year-olds and the Yorktown Handicap, $1,000 added, for three- year-olds and upward, which will be run on Saturday next. In the Cormer, which closed with 126 nominations, the public will see the pick of the juvenile division housed at Empire © Among the probable starters for the prize, which is the chief con. tribution of the Empire management to racing, are Goshawk, Martingale, Cherry Pie, Bud Lerner, Moonrak New Hampshire, Newmarket, Thatcher, Caveat Emptor, Man, High Prince, Vigil, Pennon, Autumn Bells, Enchantment and Tall ‘Timber. All eyes are turned toward the Yonkers Handicap, which is over the mile and a sixteenth route, as it is expected to bring into Eastern com petition Firebrand, the son of McGee, which has a victory over Exterminator to his credit. He will have ample opportunity to show his class against the pick of the Rancocas Stablo, which will no doubt send Grey Lag, flanked by Mad Hatter or some other worthy eligible to the-post for the feature. Grey Lag is a whole host in’ himself just now, and has yet to be beaten over the Empire course, whose deep footing is exactly to his liking. Others that should go to the post are Capt. Aleock, Dr. Clark, Horologe, On Watch, Sennings Park, Tryster, Damask, Olympus and Bon Homme THE FUSSY FOURSOME Copyright, 1922 ys LISTEN 7] poc i 4 ih , A ASF ¥'COULD i WW) (/ GOSH - How LONG 15 “THIS GONNA KEEP UP ?
