New Jersey Notes MONMOUTH PARK, Oceanport, N. J., June 13. J. J. Colandos Uncle Miltie, who recently returned to winning form at Belmont Park, has arrived at Monmouth Park to prep for a probable starting engagement in next Wednesdays Omnibus Handicap.. Uncle Miltie was chief money-winner of the 1951 season at Monmouth, where he scored in the Lamplighter Handicap and then finished second to Battlefield in the Choice Stakes. Panny Shea, Jr., of Hyde, Md., has checked in for the summer meeting with 20 head for various patrons. Shea reported that he will use jockey Walter Mann on most of the horses which he sends to the post. Top performers in the Shea string at the moment are the stakes eligibles, Conty Bay and Sweet Vermouth. Jockey Bennie Green has taken employment with the J. M. Roebling stable. The Sooner State booter came in from Belmont Park today and reported to trainer Jack H. Skirvin, who has 15 of Roeblings horses here. Robert Bernhardt, a veteran product of Canada, made an amicable parting with trainer "Sunny Jim" Fitzsimmons and the Belair Stud at Belmont Park and arrived here this morning to free-lance during this meeting.
