! . SALE AT ARLINGTON PARK f Large Consignment of Yearlings to Be Disposed of on July 15. - Fashionably Bred Youngsters From Kentucky and Illinois Farms to Go on Auction Block. Arlington Parks 00,000 Classic Stakes,, for three-year-olds, to be run on Saturday, July 16, will not be the only attraction of that particular week for those interested in the thoroughbred in the vicinity of Chicago. Many of those who foregather at the superb course, of which Otto Lehmann is president to see the pick of the three-year-old division in this richest fixture in the world for animals of that age, will be interested in the bloodlines of those that show their quality on that occasion. This study of bloodlines was almost entirely foreign to Chicago save in the . case of a few experts, until last year, when a sale of thoroughbred yearlings was staged in the Arlington Paddocks by C. J. Fitzgerald on the morning of the Classic. It was a decided novelty and attracted quite a crowd. Many of the juveniles disposed of then by Col. W. S. Dudley and Miss Elizabeth Daingerf ield, of Lexington, Ky., and by Rear Admiral Cary T. Grayson and W. H. Lipscomb, and the estate of Samuel Ross, of Virginia, have won good races. So well pleased were the consignors with the results obtained last year that they have reached the conclusion that Chicago has a future as a yearling market. None is stronger in this conviction than Colonel Dudley, who heads the list for this years vendue, which will be held on Friday, July 15, the day before the Classic, beginning at 11:30 a. m. Colonel Dudley sends fourteen of his own and four others, the property of himself and W. L. Nutter and G. G. Wedding, respectively. The bulk of Colonel Dudleys yearlings are by his own good sire, Monks Way, the imported son of Friar Marcus and the noted mare, Tillywhim, by the Derby winner, Minoru. Winner of the Newmarket Spring, Levant and Caterham Stakes among other fixtures, and half-brother to Daumont, winner of the Coronation Stakes, and Tommy Atkins, winner of the Ayr Gold Cup, July Handicap and other races, Monks Way has a brilliant future, especially when given mares from Americas best families. His daughter, from Southern Cross, by Peter Pan, sold at Arlington last year to Albert Sabath, of Chicago, and named Olive Sab-ath, is a good winner this year and was a sample bargain of the sale at 50. However, she was only one of several by Monks Way to make good. The size and symmetry of the get of Colonel Dudleys horse attracted general attention last year. Thi3 years crop has the same uniformity and is sure to be in demand. Miss Daingerfield is sending five colts and three fillies from her Haylands establishment. They are by Morvich, Tryster, Poly-melian and Prince of Umbria, and are from good mares. Like those from Colonel Dudleys Stud, they are well grown, sturdy yearlings that should win their share of races. There have been few faster horses than Morvich, which won the Kentucky Derby and 72,900. His get is noted for speed. Tryster was a good race horse, unbeaten at two, and was a winner of 02,000. Try Too, by Tryster, was a crack two-year-old and he has many other winners of good races to his credit. Polymelian and Prince of Um- bria are consistent sires of winners. It will be Wood F. Axtons first consignment to any yearling market. The popular Louisville sportsman sends two by that sterling race horse, Crusader, by Man o War, two by imported Politian and one by : Mad Hatter. Crusader won 03,261. Politian, by Dark Ronald, was a good winner: : in England and India, while Mad Hatter, a l distinguished campaigner in the Rancocas ; colors and winner of 94,525, is one of the . most successful of the sires of the Whitney ! Stud, his son, Caterwaul, being among the . leading juveniles of the current season. , The quartet from Leoha Farm are by Last t Reveille, a beautifully-bred son of Ultimus, : which sired the American Derby winner, Reveille Boy, among others. They are from Vanish, by Eternal, imported Golden Heels, -: by Golden Sun, Chestie Ann, by Luke Mc-l Luke and imported Ioulia, by Rabelais. Noth- ing but well-bred mares are kept at the l home of Reigh Count, and these four year-: lings, two colts and a like number of fillies i are up to the Leona standard. ! Hon. J. N. Camden, breeder of a host of l stake winners at Hartland, has sent a choice pair of fillies by Light Brigade, and his son, Hydromel, the latter winner of the American Derby, and other good races, and 3 whose first produce is highly praised. The : filly by Light Brigade is from Fraxinella, by t Peter Quince, while Hydromels daughter is ; from Spicy Belle, by Ben Brush. They are - handsome and, having had the run of the - great paddocks at Hartland, are well grown. 3 The colt and filly consigned by J. G. Lang l are by Hollister and Hydromel, respective ; and from Lady .Sylvia, by Chicle and Pelota, I by War Cloud, which won the Preakness I and Dwyer Stakes, among other good races. . Hollister, one of the best bred horses in the - world, is by the Derby winner, Sunstar, from the Oaks Winner, Our Lassie. He was a. - good race horse here, in England and in -1 France.
