Simon Healy, recovered from influenza, made his first appearance in a month. George Odom received a telegram in which he was instructed not to file any more tips. Odom turned the matter over to the Pinker-ton agency, which is seeking to trace those who have been using his name in this respect. Odom in all his career on the turf never sent telegrams in reference to racing information and will prosecute the perpetrators if they are discovered. Jockey K. Knott will report at Rockingham Park on Monday to ride for the J. H. Whitney division racing at that point in charge of W. Norton. Islay, a three-year-old filly owned by the Peconic Stable, was destroyed Saturday morning. The filly snapped an ankle while breezing. She was purchased one year ago out of the Audley Farm dispersal sale. Count Morse, owned by the Calumet Farm, is due here on Monday to fulfill his engagement in toie Belmont Stakes. He will be given his final prep by trainer Bert Williams. Henry Pebler, former racing secretary at Aqueduct, was among the visitor Saturday afternoon.
