4, . e I KEENELAND PARK NOTES . The stable of Thomas V. Cromwell was due to reach here Saturday morning from Arlington Downs. Ten head embrace the stable to be campaigned here. The three-year-old maiden Thundering Mike, owned by Dr. Frank Hare, was an arrival from Hot Springs. The horse was turned over to H. H. Temple, Jr., to train. Twelve horses belonging to the Valdina Farms and thirteen that race for the Tranquillity Farm were expected to reach Keene-land Saturday morning. The Valdina Farms Stable is trained by J. J. Flanigan, while the Tranquillity horses are being prepped by E. L. Snyder. Both establishments are shipping from Louisville. Instead of shipping here on the 14th, as originally planned, J. H. Skirvin notified track superintendent Bill Bishop to bed down six stalls immediately as he was leaving Louisville Saturday for the local course. Of the six horses that H. H. Temple, Jr., has in his barn, only one of the lot is a two-year-old. Temple, usually a developer of young horses, has decided to continue with only Disillusion, a brown filly by Brooms Rock Emerald. The older horses are Marvel Play, Gee Sum, Lac-Ha-Laura, Lac-Ha-Car-olyn and Frosted Rain. Charles Gentry brought the stable in his charge in from Hot Springs. Gentry is training Cheer Star, Romaine and Hustling for J. R. Neville of Cincinnati, while the Enza Vita Stable colors of S. O. Richardson of Toledo, Ohio, will be sported by Snicker, Victory Miss, Play Dis, Rose Mary and Snow Bird. The last two named have never been to the races, and Gentry is hopeful to start them at Keeneland. Rose Mary is a brown filly by Swift and Sure Rosern, and Snow Bird is a bay filly by Display Snowdrift The horses that E. E. Russell shipped here from Hot Springs "that race for his wife are Sun Apollo, Golden Fate, Gladess, Hy-marque and Kendal Green. Sun Apollo and Gladess unloaded with high fevers, but were reported as doing satisfactorily Saturday morning. To D. E. Stewart goes the credit of being the first trainer to file a registration blank. Stewart is training ten horses for J. E. Widener and Mrs. P. A. B. Widener. Hugh Gordon, 16, brother of apprentice James Gordon, who weighs ninety pounds, is expected to accept the first mount of his career during the meeting. The young prospect comes from Ferndale, Mich., and is under a five-year-old contract to E. E. Russell. The Cuban rider, F. A. Smith, came in from Hot Springs and reported to E. E. Russell, who has a call on the clever riders services for the meeting. The official family was increased Friday with the arrival of George Swain, who is listed as one of the patrol judges. Swain came from New Orleans and immediately on arrival at Keeneland began going over minor details with Sidney Brown in putting the secretarys office in condition for the opening . on Monday. Raymond Workman, contract rider for C. V Whitney will go to New York to accept mounts at Jamaica on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, returning here to ride during the rest of the Keeneland meeting. Thomas J. Healey has the main division of the Whitney stable in training here. t v
