HORSES AT LEXINGTON. Eastin and Larabies lot are Ben Halladay, 6; MacLeod of Dare, 3; Kinley Mack, 3; Koumise, 3, and the following two-year-olds: Chestnut filly, by Hanover Mollie L, full sister to Ben Holladay ; chestnut filly, by Star Ruby May, by-Falsetto; bay colt, by Order Tongesee ; chestnut colt, by Watercress Racemede, by Hindoo; chestnut colt, by Gplden Garter Bella B., and bay colt, by Golden Garter Songstress by Luke Blackburn. Of these youngsters I was mpst impressed with the Songstress colt, which is a half brother to Kinley Mack. He is not on a large scalo, but has plenty of length and is a lathy, wiry, bloodlike colt, clean limbed and looks as if he is bound to be very smart. The Racemede colt is a big framed, big boned and very powerful looking colt, a little bit coarse, perhaps, but a fine type of a lengthy, well developed youngster and one that may train into a good horse in time. The Hanover Mollie L. filly, which is a full sister to the long-distance champion, Ben Holladay, bears not the faintest resemblance to her famous brother, and is light-frameaand rather weedy. The filly out of May H. is a lengthy, rakish sort and very speedy looking. Capt. S. S. Browns lot are Manadoree, 3, and the following two-year-olds, all by Troubadour: Bay colt, out of Mona, by Buckden; bay colt, out of Sunbeam dam of Daily America ; brown gelding, out of Sunlight; bay filly, out of Sen-orita, and bay filly, out of Eukonia. The Mona colt, which is short legged, well furnished, like his dam, is a hardy, tear and wear sort and looks certain to prove useful. The Sunbeam colt has more quality and finish to him than his brother, Daily America, but while he is a racy sort he has neither the substance nor the hard game look of the Realization winner of 1893. The Senorita filly is a smooth turned thing, but lacks both the range and substance of her famous dam. J. E. McDonalds four, all two-year-olds, are, bay colt, by Deceiver Seafood, by King Ban; bay filly, by Candlemas Enquiry ; bay filly, by St. Savior Mamie B., by King Ban, and bay colt, by Candlemas The Belle. This colt, which is out of Rensselaers dam, is, I think, one of the best looking sons of Candlemas I hare ever seen. He is a lengthy, nicely balanced horse and full of quality. I saw him out at exercise and he is a beautiful actioned colt, with a long reach and traveling close to the ground. I was very much impressed with this colt. He is a decidedly mannerly, high class looking youngster, and while he has not been asked a whole lot he has shown enough to make his trainer feel very sweet on him. As he is well entered in stake events, I shall watch his developments with considerable interest, and I will be much disappointed if he does not prove one of the best of the get of a horse whose success in the stud I predicted years ago. The Candlemas filly, ont of inquiry, is a rakish, speedy looking miss, and the colt out of Seafood is a neat, smooth turned, useful sort. "Kelston" in Morning Telegraph.
