The long distance races of the week will ba 1 1-8 miles Monday and Friday and 1 1-4 miles Wednesday and Saturday Of tha thirty-six races sixteen are at a mile and more and ten are for the 2-yoar-olds. The conditions are davised with intelligent application to the lecal requirement and material and cannot fail to prodnce good racing. Tha colt Chacornac, that scored in fast time at his first start yestfrayat Saratoga, is evidently a good one. Ho is a Futurity candidate and in Morning Telegraphs report of work dona at Saratoga last Tuesday is thus referred to: " "Tbe most noteworthy move of the morning was that of Chacornac. Rowes Futurity candidate, which worked in 231, 481, 1:02, 1:16. This work, is much more creditable than it appears on paper, as it was his first work after being badly bucked six days ago. As stated a few days ago, Chacornsc is a big boned, well furnished colt. In color he is a bay with a blaze and white on all four legs. For a colt possessed of so much spead, he has not the best cf action, but in this respect he improves all the time, and as he is a nice dis positioned, sturdy, able looking colt, he can hardly fail to show some class and breeding. Ha is all English, being by Juvenal, a eon of Springfield Laetitia, by H.larious. The latter was a good racehorse, which as a three-year-old won the Czarewitch, defeating a field of about thirty horses, so that this colt is bred to race." The two-year-old, Advance Guard, by Great Tom Nellie Van, is one of the eligibles to the Futurity. His improvement has been constant and pronounced since starting his campaign on the Northern Circuit and his success at Highland Park yesterday was achieved so easily, when conceiing lumps of weight to some fairly speedy youngsters, that his owner has concluded to take him to Sheapshead Bay and start him for tha chief event of tha two-year o d class. He will leave Detroit for Sheeps-head Bay Saturday. Fifty-four thoroDghbraas left Laxington for the east Tuesday morning. Hal P. Headley shipped to Hon. W. C.

Continued from 1st Page. over tho winter is five horses. Sir Gatian, who ran second to Prince McClurg in this years St. Louis Derby, was disposed of by Mr. Cabn. His new owner informed Mr. Cahn that be intended to race tho gelding in tho "bushes" during the rest of the summer. Sir Gatian started in two races Derby Day, winning the first event on the card and finishing second to Prince McClurg in the big three-year-old classic of tho meeting. MaDy well-posted horsemen believe that the gelding would have captured the Derby if his owner bad not started him in the first race that day-Mr. Cahn contends otherwise, however. He says the firBt raco helped to loosen up the celding and, if anything, had a tendency to improve his performance in the event that f llowed. May dOr, the filly that Mr. Cahn expected to win the Tennessee Oaks wih hst spring, broke down in ner prenara-tion for the stake, and was sold for 5.
