►S. , - — — — . J. MANY EXTRA GOOD FILLIES WHICH HAVE BEEN NAMED TO CONTEND FOR KENTUCKY OAKS HONORS 1 1 The annual running of the Kentucky Daks is not attended with the eclat attaching to the decision of the Kentucky Derby. Probably if it was given as much added money it would lie held to be nearly as important in" public estimation, but comparatively, its endowment is scanty and its value a minor quantity. But historically the race is on a par with the Derby in length of existence and owners like to win it. In its time it has lieen won by some grand young race mares, among which the names and deeds of Felicia. Modesty. Knglish Lady. Souffle. Crocket. Rush. Audience. Kings Daughter. Waterblossom, Kathleen and Sunbonnet are prominent. This year the race received forty-three entries. Last year was a year of gixid two-year-old Allies and some of the best have lieen entered in the Oaks. Filly races early in the year are notoriously uncertain of result, but. if all goes well with them in training, it is quite sure that Rosie GGrady. Viva America. Atalanta. Violet Bonnie. Ocean Sweep. Mistress Polly. Plum. Olive Wood. Tally. Gipsy Queen. Enfilade. Thistle and Bonnie Broom would furnish a held unsurpassed in the long history of the race. Iaist year, when Sunbonnet won it. her opponents were such as to justify her favoritism at the short price of l" to U in the mutuels. but there is so much speed and high-class two-year-old form in the baud named that ■ really interesting and bitterly contested race seems in store for this year. The nominations to the Oaks and their rei-ords in the two-year-old racing of last year are set out in detail in the following table: Horse. Col. and Sex. Pedigree. Owner. Sts. 1st. 2d. 3d. Cup. Won.
