I., the race is named. .Mr. Mackay, after much consideration, has come to the conclusion that it is really desirable to have such a .race as this exclusively for threeryear-old jumpers, because it encourages desirable owners to purchase young steeplechase material and thereby plays a part in keep-ing up a fresh supply of steeplechasers for succeeding years.
