For its coming autumn meeting, the Westchester Racing Association received highly satisfactory en- o of tries to its stakes which closed August 15. Nearly t all of the desirable horses of the present day were o of nominated and racing of the highest class is as- snred for the grand Belmont Park course. As a 1 rule horses are now at their best and entries are of those in the highest development of training, fit and 1 it ready to race any day. For that reason an entry list of twenty-five or thirty horses now represents r more racing probabilities than one of double the rj number in the spring. a a Besides making public the nominations referred to, the club has also announced the list of ellglbles to the two divisions of the rich and important 1 Matron Stakes. For the colts division, there are a thirty-seven ellglbles and for the fillies, twenty- c five. Among the colts that may start are such good J ones as Peter Pan, Ballot, Zambesi, Grlmaldt, Oran. McCarter, Old Honesty, Okenite, Don Enrique, Hard- j I shot, Chaseaway, Yankee Gun, Aletheuo and Faust, t while in the division for fillies Pope Joan, Glamor, Yankee Girl, Fantastic and Sally K. have shown best. Some high bred fillies that have not started are in the list and may have been paved expressly , for the Matron. Apparently it may be In store ,for J James R. Keene to land both divisions. The two , long distance races, the Municipal Handicap and the J Belmont Park Autumn Weight for Age Race, received gratifying supplementary nominations and good contests seem assured in both.
