This filly is a sister of Lady Navarre, and in color and general conformation is the counterpart of her noted sister. Messrs. Young will nominate their promising lilly in many important events, both of 1910 and 1911. She is a good looker and has shown up welL in early trials. Henry Simmons is at Churchill Downs from Henderson with Ills Hamburg gelding, Pegasus, and what he has to sasr about his experience there would not look well in print. While in that section of the state, however.- lie disposed of the two horses he has been training for Jake Greenburg. a two-year-old lilly by Billet Deux and a three-year-old gelding, Louis Greenburg. The sale of this pair puts Jake Greenburg out of the thoroughbred business for the present, he having last fall sold all his brood mares to a firm of Lexington buyers. Greenburg lost interest in the thoroughbred horse business when his son died, the latter having been an enthusiastic horseman and looking after all the Greenburg thoroughbreds. The ten fillies that M. II. Tichenor, the Chicago horseman, purchased of J. K. Madden in December. 190S, as yearlings were sold in Mexico by Tichenor, and some of them will race there during the coming winter. In the collection was a sister of Edward, the colt that the English sportsman, Louis WInans. purchased when he bought Sir Martin for export, and in fact the entire collection were well bred. Alt V. Oldham,- of this city, has a coming weanling by his old campaigner. Colonel Jim Douglas, that he hopes lie can win a Kentucky -Derby with when the youngster is old enough to race in the Louisville blue ribbon event. It is the only foal of 1901 by Colonel Jim Douglas, as that horse was mated to but one mare in 190S, the dam of this youngster is Trixie O.. by Pirate of Penzance. The old horse is now in training in John Rodegaps barn at the Kentucky Association track at Lexington, and if Rodegap can get him ready he will do some racing with him at the coming fall meeting of the New Louisville Jockey Club. The son of Henry Young has not started since the 1908 spring meeting at Churchill Downs. He was not trained last spring and Oldham as a consequence allowed eight mares to lie mated to him. The Louisville turfman believes ho will make a successful sire.
