Then there is Mrs. Henry Ug-hettas Deduce, which has been consistently good in his races. Mrs. W. Plunket Stewards American Coaching Club Oaks winner, Lady Reigh, is another of the company, and W.

This fellow was cut out for a top-notcher, but has rather weak underpinning. He has worked well for his engagement and may be a factor in the running. The others to complete the field are Thomas Proctor II.s Chatmoss and Morton L. Schwartz Identify.
