KENTUCKY JOCKEY CLUB STAKES NEXT FEATURE Technique, Caterwaul and The Darb Expected to Fight It Out Again , Placed Horses in Breeders Futurity Almost Certain Starters in Rich Stake at Latonia -Bearing on 1933 Kentucky Derby LATONIA, Ky., Oct. 19. Latonia racegoers are looking forward with much interest to the Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes, the 5,000 mile feature for two-year-olds coming up for its thirteenth renewal in as many years on Saturday, October 29. The running last Saturdey of the Breeders Futurity, a sort of prologue to the richer, more important and more testing Jockey Club Stakes, stimulated interest in the latter and the renewal is awaited with more enthusiasm than has associated itself with any autumn event here in several years. Technique, daughter of Supremus and Cho Cho, which carried H. P. Headleys colors to victory in the Breeders Futurity, is eligible for the-Jockey Club Stakes and, barring mishap, will be returned from Maryland to fill the engagement. She was the fourth of her sex to win the Breeders Futurity in twenty-three years and if she triumphs in the Jockey Club Stakes, will be the third filly to succeed in that test of speed and stamina. Startle, in 1921, was the first of the gentler sex to score in the Jockey Club Stakes and it not until Ka-kapo got home in front in last years re-newel that a queen was mightier than a king for the second time in the record of the race. Caterwaul and The Darb will be back from the East to carry C. V. Whitneys colors, lowered by Technique last Saturday, and other invaders may include Mrs. Payne Whitneys. Jungle King and Dynastic; A. Pons Snaplock, Audley Farm Stables Trace Call, W. R. Coes Pomposity, Brookmeade Stables Caesars Ghost, M. L. Schwartz Union and others. R. M. Eastmans Charley O., C. T. Fishers Esseff and Prewar and A. B. Gallahers Glynson are about the best of the western hopefuls on the grounds. Worth as much as 2,800, which represented the prize money taken down by Clyde Van Dusen in 1928, the Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes has since its inception been, and continues to be, one of the more valuable fixtures of the turf. Last year it was worth 4,024 and when Twenty Grand nosed out Equipoise in 1930, he added 5,030 to the Greentree Stables coffers. On that-occasion, Twenty Grand ran the mile in 1:36, a worlds record for two-year-olds, that may never be equaled. Twenty Grand, Clyde Van Dusen andReigh Count are winners of this fall fixture on the scroll of Kentucky Derby victors.
