Ransch and Nash Turner are all under engagement for it. Information as to whether or not there will be a representative from England this year is not at hand, but It is not beyond the range of possibility that Danny Maher and perhaps Lucien Lyne will cross the channel to ride in the groat classic today. The horses most likely to start are: M. Ephrussis Mordant; M. Veil-Picards Biniou; M. De Monbels Bravo; M. Aumonts Pernod; M. Edmond Blancs Ouadi Haifa; M. Caillaults Kalisz; M. Desehanips Pitti; M.
