c FOR QUEEN CITY STABLE English Thoroughbreds Have Arrived at Belmont Park for Preliminary Training TORONTO, Ont, March 4. Allie Loudon, secretary of the Hamilton Jockey Club, was in New York when the thoroughbreds purchased for the Queen City Stable arrived and supervised their removal from the steamer to Belmont Park. He reports that Not Much is one of the finest looking horses in America and that White Satin has developed into a powerful animal. The horses that arrived from England were The Red Knight, Bac-More and Paul Ciceris R. A. Royal Academy, were eighteen days on the voyage across the ocean and therefore will take some time to find themselves. Going on past performances the five-year-old The Red Knight is the pick of the buncn, and the Queen City Stable had to pay a handsome figure to secure him. English papers remarked when the entries for the Grand National came out that this promising steeplechasers name was omitted from the entries, they having not heard of the sale. Paul Ciceris three-year-old only started a couple of times in England last year as a two-year-old and never graduated, although he ran promising races with big fields. He has four white feet and is by Gainsborough, the English Derby winner. The breeding of the recent importations is as follows: The Red Knight, b. g, 5, by The Best Frincess Ruby. Bac-More, ch. g, 6, by Torlorsk Knoll. Guingamp; b. g, 7, by Dor Guyrlande French bred. R. A., br. c, 3, by Gainsborough.
