FRIZZLE YEARLING HIGHLY PRIZED Youngster in New Orleans Turfmans Stable Said to Be Best at Lexington Track. LEXINGTON, Ky., August 20. One of the real racing prospects among the ninety-nine thoroughbred yearlings now being trained at the Kentucky Jockey Club track here is the chestnut colt by Frizzle, dam Floral Park half-sister to Johren. His owner is Frank Grefer of New Orleans. He was foaled at Glen Helen Stud and he is being trained by Harry Morrissey. He is not a large horse, but what there is of him is "all horse," as the saying goes, and quite inspiring. lie is out for business when he runs, and puts his heart into his work. Morrissey is also training the brother to Kewessa, by McGee Sanfara, for Grefer, but lie is no such horse as is the Frizzle colt. He is a chestnut in color and leggj. In appearance he is even more ungainly than was Exterminator at the same age. He isnt as level as his stablemate, since he still is given to jumping stiff-legged when mounted for exercise. He will not come to hand early, but may develop into a serviceable racer at three years old. Our Jack is the name of a well-made, substantial-looking brown colt by Beach Comber Princess Titania dam of three winners, owned by Morrissey himself and named for his son. Our Jack already has given evidence of the possession of speedt though he has not been asked the vital question as yet. Morrissey is sweet on him. The fourth and remaining member of the string is also by Beach Comber. He is a brown son of Degenerate, dam of Rye and five other winners. In appearance he is a bit ragged, but Morrissey has faitli in him. "Hell come out fine some of these days," said lie. "We have named him Homer K. for one of my sons little pals. E. R. Bradley owns a half interest in this fellow, and I shouldnt be surprised if he returns him his outlay for Beach Comber. Stranger things than that have happened in horse racing and horse breeding."
