They represent 18 different interests, although there will be four couplings. Dean Cavy and Happy Carrier, who finished first and second, respectively, in the Joliet Stakes at the Lincoln Fields meeting are one pair, Dean Cavy racing for Mrs. E. M. Veeneman, and Happy Carrier for her husband, William H. Veeneman. Ace Destroyer and Yea Bama will sport the silks of Mr. and Mrs. T. M. Daniel, Wildcat Sam and Oil Gusher will perform for Sam E. Wilson, Jr., and Blenriam and Mighty Moment will be running mates as both are trained by Milton Resseguet. The latter is owned by Resseguet, and Blenriam by Harry Allsman. Among the others are Red Speed, a son of Count Speed, who will be making his first start outside of California and will carry the colors of B. W. Landy; Fred W. Hoopers Brookhaven, who won his only start in this territory on Lincoln Fields closing card; Fiddle, in from Detroit to represent Mrs. E. E. D.

It may be that the post of favoritism will be enjoyed by either King Pin, the Veeneman entry, or the Daniel entry, the latter on the strength of Ace Destroyer. King Pin is a son of Menow, and he was a third to Tahitian King and Romantic Roman, two of the best youngsters in the East, in the National Stallion.
