Those coming from Kentucky will begin arriving next week, for limited shipping , facilities are prompting many horse-! i men to make their transfers early, so as to i be on hand for the opening of the Crete ■ track. Now at Churchill Downs are many stables • which are expected to figure prominently in the racing here. Among them are a number of Chicago folk: P. A. and R. J. Nash, John Marsch, Jake and Mose Lowenstein, Otto W. Lehmann, E. F. Bennett and Cleaveland Putnam. All these patrons have I I useful stables, and their presence should do , MDCta to make the racing here this spring j ! a success. | Many others now at Churchill Downs are planning campaigns at Lincoln Fields and Other Chicago tracks this year. Frank P. Letellier will bring about twenty-five horses to Lincoln Fields, and John W. Marchbank J is to be represented by almost as many. James Graham Brown, S. Bryant Ott and Roscoe Goose are others who will concen- I trate large forces on the Chicago racing Croat. j Lincoln Fields is counting on practically all the larger establishments now patroniz- j ing the Sportsmans Park session. Mrs. Emil Denemark is transferring her entire stable ! here, while others now racing at the Cicero plant due here are Mrs. A. M. Creech, Clar- j ence E. Davison, Paul Kelley, Mrs. Elizabeth Oros and Clyde Troutt. One thing is certain. Lincoln Fields will ! not want for horses. Track superintendent Tom Young already has many more appli- j cations for stall space than he can accommodate and again the overflow will be sent to nearby Washington Park for quarters.
