» t i ; Chesney Will Race Ten-Horse Stable at Fairmount Meeting LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 12.— Preparations are being made by James L. Chesney, Belleville, 111., horseman, to ship his ten-horse public stable to Fairmount Park Friday night. Chesney, originally scheduled to race at Detroit, decided against campaigning at the Motor City course because of illness and since Fairmount Park is only a few miles from his home, selected the latter place to race his thoroughbreds. Heading the unit is the crack sprinter Franks Boy, who sports the silks of Mrs. Chesney. Others going to the southern Illinois course the latter part of the week and o.vned by Mrs. Chesney are All True, Blue Orchid, Mistletoe, Razor Sharp and Hid-denite. In addition to the above members, Ches-neys stable will race the clever two-year-old Miss Harrison and the three-year-old Miss Lexington for Dixie McKinley, Lexington, Ky., sportsman. Also going in the same car will be Satin Rolls, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Dave Nugent, of East St. Louis.
