AT Li AT ONI A. While there are plenty of race hones stabled at Latonia waiting for the fall meeting:, it is the baby racers that are attracting the most attention. Captain W. H. May and Son have half a dozen and Jake Marklein has a dozen quartered in the big yearling barn. Both have some very well-made and royally bred youngsters, and if they do not turn out to be good race horses then all signs fail. Both the owners will give the youDgstors the usual quarter-mile try-out in the near future. Then they will know more about their relative abilities. Still, mistakes are often made, and, as a result, a good colt is left with no stake engagements. Captain May is very sweet on several of his youngsters. The Top Gallant is his favorite, while his son "Bub" is sweet on the Ben Strome. The Albert colt is a bay, and an unusually large one. The Wagner filly may prove to bo another Coal Black Lady. Both the Marklein and May yearlings were down for trials last Sunday, but the track was not in good shape and the weather was too raw and cool. A week from next Saturday the Latonia track will open its gates for the fall meeting. It will continue until November 22, and this will make twenty-five racing days. A number of horses are at the track, some resting after a long campaign and others that are just being taken up for the fall and winter racing. Secretary Hopper has received assurances that some of the bsst stables in the west and some good ones from the east will take part in the sport at fair Latonia.
