SHIP GREENTREE YEARLINGS LEXINGTON, Ky., June 16. Thirty-one yearlings, the property of the Greentree Stable, and three yearlings owned by Mrs. John Hay Whitney, were shipped East from Lexington Tuesday morning. They were bred, foaled and reared at Greentree Farm. They are going to Mrs. Whitneys other Greentree Farm at Red Bank, N. J., where they are to be broken and later be sent to Belmont Park to get their first lessons in the game of racing. Along with the yearlings will go the four-year-old St. Brideaux. This son of St. Germans came out of training last autumn with the suspicion that he had tendon trouble. He was sent to the farm here. If there was ever anything wrong with him, there is now no indication of it. He is apparently as sound as he ever was. He held court at Greentree Farm this season and was visited by six mares. Arthur Shutts returned to the farm from New Jersey Tuesday morning. He had been called to his old home by the death of a brother-in-law. Shutts says this is the best crop of yearlings he has yet sent from Greentree Farm. Among them is a half- - brother to Twenty Grand and a half-sister to St Brideaux.
