When his three-year-old Brigade won in such easy fashion a few days ago, several well-known eastern trainers were anxious to add Brigade to their stable, and offers as high as ,500 were made. Bradley refused them, as he expected to gee a better price for the colt. The horse pulled up a trifle lame after the race, but it wbb thought that he would be all right in a day or two. It now turns out Brigade is so lame that he may never face the flag again this year, if ever again.
