j A a I j f ; i j i ; , : 4. LADY E0THA AGAIN THE PRINCIPAL MONEY WINNER IN THE STABLE OF W. H. BAKER : : : Tlie Kentucky turfman, W. II. Baker, had a fairly successful campaign in racing this year, but not up to Iiis record in I.IIG. when his horses won a total of -1.280. This year, as then, his good mare, Lady Kotha. was his principal money winner, and a -right dependable creature she is, seldom failing to run to her average public form. His two-year-old, Tex Fi.rman. now dead, was next to Lady Botha in money " t won and a fast colt. His. sire. Master Bobert, and his dam, Marbles, were speedy racers and their union might be expected to produce such as Tex Forman proved to be. With a good chance given. Master Bobert. should prove a good sire. He is well bred and when a thrcc-ytar-old comported himself worthily in year when such grand three-year-olds as Colin. Fair Play, King James, Chapultepoc and other real cracks were making 1108 memorable in racing annals. Dr. Shafer. Square Dealer. James Foster and Pretty Baby raced profitably for the stable, but the three-year-old Green Jones proved a great disappointment. Early in the year he was thought worthy of consideration in connection with the Kentucky Derby, but proved unable to win even a purse race. The record of the stable was: Horse. Col. and" Sex. A.
