Who Goes There Is Among Celt Field Two Attractive Handicaps At Aqueduct Today; One Is Sprint, Other Route Test AQUEDUCT, L. I., N. Y., June 26. Aqueduct will present two attractive handicaps tomorrow, the ,000 Celt and the ,000 Bannockburn. The first of these tests is a six-furlong dash for three-year-olds and the second is a route event at a mile and one furlong for class "C" horses, three years old and upward. The Celt has drawn a small field of six, headed by G. D. Wideners Who Goes There, who must pack 122 pounds, all but about 10 of which will be Johnny Longden. Who Goes There is a colt of unquestioned speed as he showed in his initial start of the year at Jamaica, and again when beating such a good colt as By Jimminy in the Withers Mile, but the son of Challenger II. also seems to be a timid sort who has to have things his own way. In his two victories, Who Goes There got to the front in the first jump or two and then outran his field. When beaten he was unable to get to the front and appeared to dislike being in close quarters. While Who Goes There is conceding from 10 to 19 pounds to his nine rivals in the Celt, the weight should not trouble him, as he is a big colt, but he may find Mrs. T. Christophers Bel Reigh, who gets in with 112 pounds and Don Meade in the saddle, able to outfoot him. Hes been freshened and is said to be ready. If Meade breaks him fast from his stall position outside of Who Goes There, the Widener colt may have his troubles. Tambo Is Good Work Horse The Celt doesnt end with that pair by any means, for there is the fast and consistent filly, Boiling On, in this dash with only 108 pounds, and she also breaks outside of Who Goes There. The others are Tambo, 107; Doggone, 103, and Free Lance, 112. Tambo may surprise the public one of these days if he is ever rated, for this fast worker has one good run in him and tomorrow Atkinson may not try to outrun the known speed horses. Doggone was good in New Orleans, but shes had her followers using stronger expletives than her own name after her races here in the north. Free Lance, racing for the always dangerous Wheatley Stable, has sometimes shown stretch-running ability and might be able to run over some beaten horses in the stretch in this dash, especially if the early pace is extremely fast. He was a late scratch from Saturdays 0,000 Dwyer Stakes. It should be quite a race. The Bannockburn has drawn only five . overnight entries, but this hine-furlong event should also produce a good contest. The race is headed by Lt. Walter P. Chryslers consistent and hard-hitting Ramillies, who will carry 122 pounds. The others are Famous Victory, 117; Corydon, 116; Singing Torch, 113, and Night Glow, 109. This is an artfully contrived handicap, and all of these horses have good recent form. Ramillies has closed fast in all his races this season. Corydon would have been a winner in another jump or two in his last start here, and once was good enough to beat Bimelech; Singing Torch was blocked twice in his last race, which can be disregarded. Night Glow is a steady, honest mare,
