Macomher will tie represented in the running of the Kentucky Derby br War Cloud unless the present stable plans go amiss The foreign-bred sou of Polymelus — Dreamy according to reports received at Churchill iM.v.ns has lseii training exceedingly well at Belmont Park and trainer Jennings has already arranged to ship him to the local track, being due to arrive here May 1. , ___ , With War Cloud m the field it will alter the complexion of the Derby. Ip to this time the race wao generally conceded to be between Sun Briar and Escoba. War Cloud is considered by many shrewd horsemen to bo the master of both of these and there will be some revision of the popular prediction if he goes to the post fit to race. It is also well-nigh certain that James Rowe will try for the Kentucky race with Kosie OOrady. Probably all of those nained will be shipiied back to Maryland for the Preakness, to be run May 15. With the improved transportation facilities it will be possible to start in both of these races and it would be possible for one colt or filly to win both prizes.
