MORVICH HAS "REAL SENSE" Jockey Frank Keogh Pays High Compliment to Unbeaten Son of Runnymede. SARATOGA SI-RINGS, X. Y., August 20. "I dont think that I ever saw more than three horses during my connection with the turf display more real sense than does Morvich." said jockey Frank Keogh, in .discussing the merits of Ren RIocks speed marvel. "This colt seems to know what is expected of him from the time he reaches the paddock until the nice is over, and he never frets to any extent. Once in a while he becomes a bit nervous while waiting for the start to come, but he is always ready for the sondoff. "He has only one pronounced drawback, and that is his inclination to ease himself up when he gets a commanding lead. Invariably he will slow down after turning for home, but it is not difficult to arouse him again. He must bo broken of this habit, however, and blinkers will accomplish this."
