CARTER VERY SUCCESSFUL His Handling- of Brown Wisdom and My Dandy Brings Favorable Comment. i AGUA CALIENTE, Mexico, March 31. Jack Carter, trainer for Reichert Brothers, handled the horses in his charge during the present season in a manner that stamps him as a trainer of the highest class. His management of Brown Wisdom was meritorious, and the same applies to My Dandy, the fast mare Tippy Toe and the greatly improved three-year-old, Wizardry. He brought the latter from the ,000 claiming class into the stake division. Wizardry will enter the Fair-mount Derby and Reichert Brothers think he has a good chance to win it. Brown Wisdom required careful training. Dr. E. E. Watson assisted in connecting his ailments that Carter might train him with the big race as his goal. Some close observers scoffed at the idea of Brown Wisdom getting ready for the stake. He went off" in January. Carter had to throw him out of training; then bring him back. This was done in a series of slow gallops. Brown Wisdom was never keener than right now. When Carter stretched My Dandy to a mile and a sixteenth in the George Washington Handicap, he performed quite a feat in itself, but later on he was to prove that the horse can go a mile and a quarter, for My Dandy received the fourth money in the Agua Caliente Handicap. An even greater test of Carters skill came when he sent My Dandy back three days after the "Caliente," running into a five-eighths sprint. My Dandy then was sharp enough to win in :58-s for a track record. Reichert Brothers and Carter are coming back next fall with an even more powerful string than they brought here this season. They hope to go after every stake James N. Crofton puts in the book.
