SPEEDY PEN ROSE WINTERING GRANDLY Trainer Boden Has Biff String: at Gravesend Sweet on tho Chances of Senator Crow. NEW YORK, X. Y., January 22. Trainer James Itodeu, who enjoyed more than a fair measure of success last year, saddling twenty-seven winners, has a stable of nineteen thoroughbreds wintering at Gravesend. Eleven of the horses are the property of the Triple Springs Farm, four belong to D. Raymond, the Montreal turfman, and the remaining four are tlie property of different owners. The star of tlie Triple Springs Farm string is the wonderfully speedy filly len Rose, which has filled out considerably since going into winter quarters, although she will never be a big horse, len Rose proved herself u nicer of more than ordinary merit in her two-year-old racing, starting in seventeen races, winning thirteen without lieing unplaced even once, and accounting for over 0,000 in stable earnings. She is a.daughter of Sweep, the leading t ire of 191S, her dam lieing Hanrose, by Hanover, paternity suggesting value as a brood mare when her racing days are over. It will be interesting To note how this speedy miss fares in the three-year-old racing of this year, and it is sincerely hoped that she will not meet tlie same fate that "oefel the popular Tippity Witchet after a two-year-dd career similar to that of Pen Rose. Trainer lioden is sweet on the chances of Senator Crow, a son of Uncle Follies Bergeres, which was too large and growthy to make a good showing as :i two-year-old. He now looks like the ideal race horse of the big and robust type, of faultless conformation and apparently a stayer and weight carrier. There are only three two-year-olds in the Triple Springs Farm Stable, one a fill by Glasgerion Mrs. K., a most prepossessing youngster of good information; another by King James Notasulga, a brown colt of size and substance, and another brown colt by that remarkable begetter of speed, Jim Gaffney. ... , The jumiiers Reddest, King Simon, Kintore and Garter have been wintering in grand condition and are destined for a strenuous campaign through the field this year.
