Yankee Daughter is to go to the stud, probably next fall, and next spring she will be mated with Yankee. Yankee, a 0,000 son of Hanover and Correction and a Futurity winner, is at John E. Maddons Hamburg Place stud, but Mr. Hitchcock and his brother, Thomas Hitchcock. Jr., each owns a third interest in him. Yankee probably has not had a fair chance at Hamburg Place because Mr. Madden has been inclined to favor Ills English horse, Ogden, the sire of Sir Martin.
