HORSES AT BELMONT PARK WILL BE THE GREATEST NUMBER EVER WINTERING AT THAT TRACK. Trainer Karrick Assisted Next Winter in His Training Activities by His Son The Veteran Tartar Taken Up. New York, November 24. The number of racehorses wintering at Belmont Park will be much the largest known during the history of that track. Upon the completion of the enclosing of his second stable, W. II. Karrick will have accommodations for fifty thoroughbreds, and it is believed he will have few, if any, empty stalls at that. In addition to the Schuyler L. Parsons horses and those of the Oneck Stable, which he has been training for many years, he now lias the Glen Riddle string, the Mrs. Jeffords stable, the horses of the Schwartz Brothers and others. Trainer Karrick will be assisted by his son, who has been engaged in connection with his fathers training activities ever since he was old enough to ride. Trainer Thomas J. Healey has taken up the veteran racehorse Tartar, winner of the Brooklyn Handicap of 1915, and the two-year-old colt Navarro, by Olambala Lady of Navarre, which have been down on Long Island, near Westbury, for a large part of tiie racing season of 1910. Thev will continue in idleness at Belmont Park until taken up for spring preparation. Mr. Wilsons big imported bay filly Belle Ronald, 2, by Dark Ronald, which was given some early training last spring and then let up, was punch-fired last week by Dr. McCully. This filly gave promise of showing considerable speed early last spring. Jerry Carroll, as usual, has a big stable of thoroughbreds, and his many friends unite in hoping that the run of bad luck which followed him through the latter part of 1915 and nearly to the end of 1910, will entirely disappear with 1917. He has a band of royally-bred imported youngsters, and although Jack Mount was the only one to make good this year, there appears to be every reason to anticipate that some of the large and handsome two-year-olds developed last summer will turn out to be really good three-yoar-olds. In the same bam Mr. Coe has some good imported yearlings, of which Carroll entertains a high opinion.
