Among the ones he has named is Major Johnson, a bay colt by King Heather — Revolution, which is an eligible to the American Classic. The stable is now stationed at Collinsville in charge of trainer P. L. Lycan, but it will be shipped to Arlington in time for the opening of that meeting. J. W. Parrish, well known breeder and owner of Midway, Ky., who failed to nominate his good colt Roy to the Kentucky Derby, has named the son of King Gorin and Millie Fleures to the Classic.
