LA WHENCE RE A LIZA TION HIS TOM Here is the history of the famous Lawrence Realization Stakes, to be run at Belmont Park today. Only three are named to start, but they arc the survival of the best three-year-olds of the year and victory today virtually means the championship of that division. Bunting-, Kai-Sang and Rockminister are the trio of overnight acceptances. It looks like victory for the first-named, but Kai-Sang is no mean opponent for any mans horse and the Whitney colt will surely be entitled to all the honors of the three-year-old division if he takes the measure of the Rancocas star. Victory in the Lawrence Realization brings added prestige to a horse. This noted race was established by the old Coney Island Jockey Club in 1SS9 and run at its famous Sheeps-head Bay course until 1913. Since 191G it has been decided at Belmont Park. Many of Americas most renowned thoroughbreds are included among its winners, which are shown below: Year. First. Jockeys. Wt. Second. Wt. Third. Wt. Val. Time. 1SS9 SalTator J.
