C, 2, SWEEP, BY BEN BRUSH— PINK DOMINO. In Sweep it seems that sturdy Bon Brash lias sired a worthy addition to the splendid galaxy of great turf stars issuing from James K. Kcenes Castleton Stud of recent years. For some time Bon Brush and Kingston have la-en obscured by the brilliancy of the descendants of Domino, but it is well that the line of Bonnie Scotland should not lie lost sight of and if Sweep keeps on in the way of his beginning it will not be for some time to come. Seemingly he is of the Class of Colin, Sysonby. Peter Pan. Ballot and Maskette. or else the opi«uieiils he has met so far are inferior grade two-year-olds. Sweeps score to date is three easily -achieved victories in two purses and one stake race. His first race was at Belmont Park. May 20. a dash of live-eighths of a mile straight. This lie won pulled up bv eight lengths in 68%, with Beau Nash second and Fire Box third. May 2K lie won another purse at the same dis.ance by five lengths unextondod in 1:01--. defeating Medallion. Perry Johnson and six more. His next anil last race was in the rich National Stallion Race. May 31. This lie won in the same commanding fasli-io-,. defeating John F.. Maddens sasfnsed crack. Newmarket, by eight lengths in a earner, with Big Stick third and Kocky OBrien ami Starboltle unplactd. II all goes well wilh bim u great career lies before this line colt. His record to date and bis pedigree are as folows: Year. Sts. 1st. 2nd. - 3rd. Unp. Won. ljOli 3 3 0 0 0 2,J7o
