The first race will be held at Belmont Fark and will have ." ,000 added, the second at Aqueduct also with 5,000 added and the third at Latonia with fSMtt added. The fact that substantial rewards will go to the placed horses in each race should meet with the horsemens approval. The races at three-quarters and a mile will each have $."..000 for the second and ,000 to the third, while the mile and a quarter fixture will have four monies — ,009 to second, ,000 to third and ,000 to fourth.

Douglas, the American representa- tive of Pierre Wertheimer, owner of Kpinard, who will transmit them to his principal.

It should have a bearing on the size of the field for the Latonia race.
