FINE FIELD FOR HOPEFUL STAKES EIGHTEEN HIGH CLASS TWO - YEAR - OLDS NAMED TO STRIVE FOR SARATOGAS RICHEST PRIZE-LEONARDO II. AND PRUDERY THE FA VORITES There are eighteen crack two-year-olds named to start in the rich Hopeful Stakes at Saratoga today. The Harry Payne Whitney and J. K. L. Ross establishments have strong representation in the race, each having a quartet of star youngsters. The Whitney aggregation comprises Prudery, Ararat, Exodus and Dartmoor, while the Ross representatives are Star Voter, Intrigante, Registrar and the newly acquired Sailing B., bought Sunday from E. Herz at private terms. Leonardo II. and Serapis will carry the colors of James W. McClelland. Nancy Lee, Smoke Screen, Oriole and Step Lightly are the more prominent of the other overnight acceptances. On the eve of the big race it appears as if Leonardo II. will, go to the post favorite, but Prudery, queen of the two-year-old fillies of the year, will not lack supporters, her smashing victory in the Spinaway Stakes Saturday confirming the previously held high opinion of her lacing prowess and adding to her already long list of admirers. The field is certainly one of the best ever programmed for this valuable fixture, and a great contest is in prospect, with the possible crowning of the two-year-old champion of the year included in its decision. The probable starters, with their weights, riders, owners and trainers, are as follows: Horse. Weight. Rider. Owner. Trainer. f Leonardo II 115 A. Schuttinger J. W. McClelland K.
