CINCINNATI TROPHY STAKES « Seventeen Named for Juvenile Race at Latonia Track Today. ■ Emileo Probable Favorite in First Three- Quarter Mile Two-Year-Old Contest at Covington Track. LATONIA, Ky„ June 28.— For the thirty-fourth running of the famous Cincinnati Trophy Stakes, which wa3 inaugurated in 1902, seventeen colts and geldings have ac-. cepted to race three-quarters, for the purse ,500 added, and a beautiful silver trophy, which will be given to the winning owner. -With twelve of the seventeen named overnight starting, the race will gross close ,500 of which the winners share would approximately ,600. The .race having failed to attract any in-. vaders, will engage performers which have made their records here. This give3 the local owners somewhat of a monopoly on the prize and will also give Latonia a bet-. ter line on the prospective starters and simplify their efforts in determining the probable winner. It is certain Emileo, Miss Lillian Knebel* kamps sterling son of Sun Pal and Lady Astor, will rule favorite, having chalked up victories in all three of his starts here. He will be coupled with Line Drive, which will represent W. F. Knebelkamp, both being trained by former jockey Tommy Murray. Another entry, comprising Happy Rhinock and Prince Fellow, have been named for the Trophy. The latter pair will carry the red and black colors of Mrs. George D. Cox, a Cincinnati patron. J. Shakespeare, another native of Cincinnati, has a strong contender Geo. Gable, which recently raced Emileo a close decision. J. W. Parrish will depend upon his good colt, Johnny Tight, to defend his terra cotta colors and while this youngster has failed dismally in his races here, he must not be ignored. One of his best races would make him a formidable rival for any of those mentioned. Among the dark horses are William Wood-, wards gray colt Knack, which gave a credit-s able effort in his initial start. Mrs. Bessie Franzheim has a rather promising colt in Silas, and one which might upset the calculations if he improves off his recent races. [ It is the most open race since its inception , « and one which should furnish a hair-raising i finish. It is also the first juvenile . 1 event at three-quarters since the current J meeting started, and the test should bring out the true qualities of those that compete. I The race, formerly open to two year-olds of ,both sexes, was changed in 1931, and since c that time it has been exclusively for Colts and geldings.
