KINGS PLATERS AT WORK AT MONTREAL. Montreal, Quo.. August 25. One of the best trials of the Kings Plate candidates at Blue Bonnets so far went to the credit of St. Laurent, from the stable of Andrew Shearer. This colt showed plenty of speed, having more than his weight up and worked six furlongs in l:23i. Sans Droit and Larente, the two Pinters owned by C. S. Campbell, were schooled at the barrier and given a useful gallop. The two-year-old Lord Ladas. owned by D. Raymond, was schooled at the barrier and then worked a quarter of a mile. Republican, in the stable of John Hyland, is doing well. Trainer Matt Feakcs gave the horses owned by Mrs. L. A. Livingston useful work. Lovctio is improving each day. Mr. Feakes says that his horses never did better than since coming to Montreal. G. R. Tompkins worked his string of jumpers on the flat. The work of Jimmy Lane was impressive. Bigot lias shown some good work over the jumps. Trainer Bulcroft has a couple of tirst-class Star Shoot two-year-olds owned bv N. MacFarlane, which are being sent along with regularity. Suulike is the better of the two.
