Dredger, Sir Edward. Allerion, Marster, Henry Kelly, Simon D. and Court Martial, the last-named two having been purchased from Johnny Dyment, following the close of the Woodbine fall meeting. Of the eleven two-year-olds J. R. Walker is expecting great things. Following is a list of the two-year-olds iu the Walsh string: Daisy Thorpe, b. f, by Woolsthorpe — Daisy Rose.
