He brought Artist Knight, Spartan Lad, Hasty Lady and Hospitality, owned by Dixiana, and Van Dusens Vote Boy, Chilla May, Prince Torch, Prince Dean and Torch Lassie from the Arkansas Spa. Jockey Leonard Hale, who accompanied Scheffel here, may report to Van Dusen at Dixiana Farm. According to present plans, as announced by R. J. Nash, the main division of the Shandon Farm, maintained by Nash and his brother, P. A., will come on from Maryland for the Churchill Downs meeting. The stable has five two-year-olds and the four-year-old Naval Cadet in training at Churchill Downs. Cellaigh, a juvenile son of Sun Fag and Madcap Marvin, bred at Shandon Farm, is slated to represent the stable in the Bash-ford Manor Stakes here. Joseph E. Wideners Seven Pines, Hose, Johnnycake and Dnieper, the only horses D. E. Stewart had left at the close of the Miami season, are at Churchill Downs under that trainer. Although plans for the stable have not been publicly announced, it is believed that Stewart will race a division in the West during the forthcoming season. Two two-year-olds and a three-year-old, owned by Morris Vehon, of Chicago, are additions to the string Jake Lowenstcin has in training at the Downs. They were bred : by their owner. The two-year-olds are a daughter of Reigh Count Mally Jane and a son of Reigh Count and Princess Edith, while the three-year-old, also from Mally Jane, was sired by Wildair. They arrived here from Horace Davis farm several days ago. Lowenstein also is preparing seven for racing under his own silks. They are the older Sun Captor, Our David, Western Lad, Stout Heart and Bubblesome, and two-year-olds by Epinard and Mad Hatter. The Epi-nard youngster is a colt from Molly King and has been named Beaumond, while the other is a filly from Purr, named Lady Montrose. J. Cal Milam, master of Merrick Farm, and the man who developed Exterminator, Rangoon, Anna M. Humphrey, Miss Joy and many other speedsters and stayers of note, is expected here from Lexington with ten head about ten days before the Downs opening. Two in his string are owned by Johnson N. Camden, former United States senator and one-time owner of Hartland Stud. Milam at one time raced one of the largest and strongest stables in the country for Camden.
