LOUISVILLES STAKE OFFERING. Next Thursday, January 15, at midnight, entries will close to the stakes offnred by the New Louisville Jockey Club. They are, in the main, fixtures to be run at the May meeting of 1903, but the Kentucky Derby of 1904, Kentucky Oaks of 19S4 and the Nursery Stakes of 1904 are also in the list. Since Aristides won the first Kentucky Derby in 1875 the Louisville meeting has always ranked in the forefront and its importance is not in the least diminished in the estimation of turfmen. As a matter of fact it has been enhanced since the control of the club has passed into new and capable hands, and there is good reason to predict that the meeting of 1903 will excel its predecessors in all features. The stakes now offered to be run this year are all on the added money system and should be generously patronized by western turfmen. Daily Racing Form will furnish entry blanks to all who may apply for them.
