HAVRE DE GRACE RACING Prospects Are Exceedingly Bright for First of the Maryland Fall Meetings. , i HAVRE DE GRACE, Md., September . : 1 Marylands fast-expanding thoroughbred in- j dustry and Maryland ownership in racing will ! be brilliantly represented in the decision at Havre de Grace of the 0,000 Eastern Shore , Handicap, for two-year-olds, that was won J last year by Morvich. in 1920 by Careful and . in 1919 by Constancy. The Eastern Shore Handicap, along with the 0,000 Potomac, a handicap of a mile and a sixteenth, for three-year-olds, and the 0,000 Havre de , Grace, a handicap of one mile and an eighth, t for three-year-olds and over, will close with ; j racing secretary Martin Nathanson of the Harford Agricultural and Breeders Association at Havre de Grace this coming Sat-j urday, September 9. The Eastern Shore will be the opening day j feature of the Havre de Grace meeting, which will begin on September 20, to run ten days. Havre j de Grace will usher in the autumn season of racing in Maryland. The ten days i racing here will be marked by the distribution of 25,000 among the owners of the participating horses, and it will be followed by the October meeting of the Maryland State Fair at Laurel Park. Laurel racing will be followed in November at Pimlico and 1 Bowie by the fall meetings of the Maryland Jockey Club and the Southern Maryland Agricultured Association. About 50,000 will be the reward of the , horsemen who race in Maryland this fall, . and the prospect of this handsome distribution will serve to bring to the Old Line State for the entertainment of the racing folk of Baltimore, Washington, Wilmington and . Philadelphia the foremost thoroughbreds of all ages and classes still in training. JIARYLAIND BREEDERS CONTRIBUTE. Marylands breeding industry will contribute , to the Eastern Shore the colts Cyclops, . "William Tell and Daniel, products of "William Woodards Belair Stud of Prince George County, which in the course of the last few years has given racing the brilliant sprinter ; Lion dOr and his long-distance running ! brother Cote dOr, The Desert, Teddy R., Flambette, a Coaching Club American Oaks and Latonia Oaks winner; Polka Dot, a j Coaching Club American Oaks winner, and i also Little Chief, winner at Saratoga of the Saranac Handicap and the Travers Stakes and at Belmont Park of the Manhattan Handicap. Cyclops and "William Te.- will race under the silks of Robert L. Gerry of New York, Daniel under the jacket of H. C. Proctor. Cyclops, a black son of Heno and Daphne, is one of the most formidable of the numerous bidders for the years juvenile crown. In one of four straight successes, the last of which was scored in the Saratoga Sale Stakes Inaugural, Cyclops defeated Dunlin, the destined winner of the rich Hopeful Stakes, in which he Cyclops was not eligible to start. . William Tell, a winner at Aqueduct and Saratoga, was the contender in the Nursery Handicap, a race of three-quarters of a mile, which Cherry Pie won at Belmont Park last Saturday in 1:11, remarkable time for a two-year-old to make. William Tells dam, Arrowshaft, was a half-sister of Heno, sire of Cyclops, He Will, The Turk and Lion dOr. Williams daddy was Rock View. Daniel, a son of Rock View and Marie Fran- ces, is a half-brother of Teddy R. Daniel which began racing at New Orleans last win- ter, is a capital mud runner. He defeated Shamrock, Doughoregan, Newmarket, Caveat Emptor and New Hampshire in the last race in which he started at Saratoga. MARYLAND OWNERS REPRESENTED Maryland ownership will be represented ; formidably by J. S. Cosden of Baltimore, whose powerful stable has become one of the four leaders of the current year in money winning. The veteran William Garth and his , son, Woods, are the trainers of the Cosden stable, which will give Martingale and Dunlin ; to the Eastern Shore. Martingale, a son of Martinet and Lady Irma, has won the Tre-, mont and Grand Union Hotel Stakes. Dunlin, for which Mr. Cosden paid 7,500 at t Yonkers in July, defeated Goshawk, Zev, Cartoonist, Enchantment, Boys Believe Me, ; Flagstaff and Martingale in the Hopeful at Saratoga last Thursday. A natural long-; distance runner. Dunlin is one of the most : , promising of the many good colts in the ! Maryland Futurity, which will be run at : t Pimlico in November. Among the crack colts and fillies that have ! 2 already been named for the Eastern Shore s with Cyclops, William Tell, Daniel, Dunlin i and Martingale are Mrs. Payne Whitneys i . Cherry Pie, winner of the Keene Memorial I and Nursery Handicap, and Dustabout; s Harry Payne Whitneys Flagstaff, Picketer, Rial to, Enchantment and Cresta Bud Fish- ers Cartoonist ; John Sanfords Glentilt ; the s j Rancocas Stables Zev, Curtis, Bud Lerner and Coeur de Lion ; Richard T. Wilsons , . Wilderness and Tall Timber; Walter J. Salmons Mark Twain ; the Quincy Stables 5 e Caveat Emptor; Morton L. Schwartz Golden i Rule; Samuel Ross Toucana; Edward Beale , McLeans Giarre, Comixa and Noel ; the Oak -j Ridge Stables Sakah, Runviso and Runelise; Mrs. George W. Lofts Kippy, and Gifford A. i Cochrans 0,000 Goshawk. The Eastern Shore may indeed furnish a i 5 better line on the relative merits of the years two-year-old cracks than has any T stake of the past Jamaica, Belmont Park, Saratoga and Aqueduct meetings.
