1 NULLI SECUNDUS TO BE A JUMPER. J King Edward has sent Nulll Secundus to Captain Dewhurst to be put through a course of hurdle training. Nulll Secundus, a three-year-old by St; Simon Nunsuch, was expected fo do great things. Last winter he was spoken of with much favor for the classics, but he has been a big disappointment. Being so highly bred and a horse of such good appearance, the disappointment was all the greater, and it Is hoped that a "course at jumping may stimulate his courage and give him confidence. The King would be well pleased should Nulll Secundus take kindly to jumping, as he is keenly Interested In steeplechasing and possibly would rather win the Grand National than any other race run in England.
