ANSWERS TO QUERIES. Communications without names and addresses will not be noticed nor answered. No answers will be sent by mail and none by wire unless reply pre-Ipayment is made at time of wiring query. M. J. D., New Orleans, La. Wagers on Flash of Steel July 25 lost. E. H. C, Chicago, 111. Parlays are decided by the running of the horses named to go. W. J. H., St. Louis, Mo. Agues place price at Grand Rapids, July 5, was 245 to 100. Pat B., Cincinnati, O. The disqualification of Curlicue did not affect the betting, which stands as the horses finished. B. A., Cincnniati, O. No publication of the kind inquired about is in existence. Do not know the present location of jockey Borel. J. F. W., St. Louis, Mo. Backers of Flash of Steel singly lost. Under the new rules of the Jockey Club an owner can start two horses in a selling race. On tracks outside of its jurisdiction the old rule is in force. G. F. P., White Knob, Idaho. Claiming in Kentucky is restricted to those having a horse in the race. In New York anyone may claim in some cases, only owners in others, dependent on how the conditions of the race are expressed. J. J. S., New York. Can not say what Tea Caddys place price would have been in race 34673. In order to have had it computed, it would have been necessary for him to have finished first or second. Then his place price would have been dependent upon the number of place tickets sold on him, which is a matter of which we have no knowledge. P. S., Chicago. 111. Judge Wright is seven years old and is not in racing, being in stud service. The race of July 25, in which his son. Judge Wright II., started, was a race for two-year-olds. It would with fairness be held that a parlay reading Judge Wright to win and Goldcrest Boy place, meant Judge Wright II., and had he -woh payment would hare been expected.
