horse spraddled straddled I knew the colt was far from good after he warmed up al ¬ though the boy that rode him his preliminary said he was all right Why he only worked in 14 seconds and a cab horse can almost do as well on that fast track I know the colt cannot be beaten away from the post by anybodys anybody horse when he is good and here it took him sometime to land there With 10 pounds less weight than on the day when he covered three quarters in 1121 he today did not run better than 1 16 Tho Theo owner is out of town but my idea is that the heavy weight and delay of 22 minutes at the post on July 1 killed the colt The hard track may have sored scored him up and again he may have been improperly cooled out
