excessive weights in most of his races and Hirsch has had no end of trouble keep ¬ ing him going on that account Both are looking exceedingly well and will doubtless be ready when wanted wantedThe The only other one that will race for Mrs Loft is Corse Payton a fouryearold geld ¬ ing that formerly raced as Twenty Seventh Division He is also a jumper and one that has given some promise in his
