- CURRENT NOTES OF THE TURF. John A. Drake is among those who are enjoying : the racing at Saratoga. Kill Dudley, one of the Northwood Stables jumpers, has been bleeding slightly in recent races, but trainer J. K. Frayling is of the opinion that it is not a chronic or serious condition. A yearling half-brother to Silver Tag and Fifi-nella will be among the yearlings of Mr. Hulton i that will come under the hammer at Newmarket in September. The youngster in question is by Lona-wand out of Silver Fowl. Members of the Canadian branch of the Thoroughbred Horse Association racing on the half-mile . circuits have come out strongly against a proposal to establish night racing on a track at Montreal and threaten to outlaw any owner who may lend I assistance to the plan. Edward B. McLean has been looking over some of 1 p the best three-year-olds at Saratoga with the intent to make some purchases. Monday morning John E. Madden worked his good colt Hendrie, which 1 took the measure of Crimper, over the Oklahoma 1 track. He was sent along for a, mile and an eighth in 1:5S, which was a remarkably good move over : this training ground, which, is. sandy and deep. The fractional times were: 12, 25, 37, 50, 1:03, 1:17, 1:44. Besides Mr. McLean, William Garth and Rai Parr were on hand to see J the work. The book for the inaugural meeting af Kenilworth i Park, Windsor, September 2 to September 9, has i been issued by racing secretary W. R. Norvell. . It provides for the regulation seven races daily. . On all but one day of the meeting there will be i one 00 purse and one 00 purse, witli the other purses 00. With such liberal purse offerings the ! new course will undoubtedly be well patronized by t important stables. The mntuels are to. be installed for speculative purposes. 1
