LATONIA PROSPECTUS » Abundance of High Class Racing Material Available for Meeting. • Much Interest Manifested, Judging by Large List of Club House and Box Reservations. ♦— LATONIA, Ky., June 23.— With such fashionable stables as Charles T. Fisher, Baylor Hickman, Charles Bacharach, F. P. Letellier, C. W. Green, James Graham Brown, Herbert P. Gardner, Robert West, Hal Price Headley, Jerome B. Respess, George M. Hendrie, Brownell Combs, Gor-ham Bros., Robert and Pat Nash, Colonel Robert Lee Baker, W. W. Vaughn, E. P. Applegate, B. B. Jones, C. V. Whitney, Mrs. Payne Whitney, Mrs. John Hay Whitney and countless others now quartered at La-tonia and daily arrivals bringing to "fair Latonia" an abundance of high class racing material, the thirty-one day meeting which commences Saturday, June 27, gives every indication of being one of the best ever held here. List of reservations for club house and boxes have been made by prominent leaders of the financial and social world, the majority of which are expected for the forty-ninth running of the Latonia Derby on opening day. Not since the never-to-be-forgotten third International Series, when Mrs. Graham Fair Vanderbilts Sarazen triumphed over Pierre Wertheimers Epinard has the demand for reservations for opening day been equaled.

Mr. Fisher, who recently purchased High Time at the auction conducted by Colonel Phil Chinn, has several two-year-olds by the sire of Sarazen, and a majority of them are eligibles for the Clipsetta, devoted to fillies, and the Cincinnati Trophy, which engages colts and geldings. These events for juveniles are certain to bring out the best of the youngsters. The Trophy, first of the two stakes, for two-year-olds to be decided, will again bring together Anthony Pelleteris Proteus and Charles Fishers Easter Time. Their* last meeting resulted in a victory for Proteus, but the finish was so close it required the official placing to decide the winner. Strange to say, the Clipsetta also brings together two rivals in Edward Cebrians Uma, and the Forest Cove Stables Butter Beans. They have yet to meet, but Butter Beans, one of the sensations of the winter meeting, was second to Princess Ivre in the Hinata Stakes at Lexington, and has the Churchill Downs Lebutante Stakes to hex credit. Uma was successful in the Debutante Stakes at Washington Park. However, it is no certainty that any of the aforementioned have the two stakes at their mercy, for in the list of nominations are certain juveniles that have shown in their works and races that they are to be reckoned with, and large fields are expected to accept in both events.
