ATLANTIC CITY, Mays Landing, N. J., Aug. 29. The stewards today issued a ruling suspending owner Albert Rothauser for 10 racing days for violation of claiming rule No. 148 in acquiring the horse, Jolis Choice, on August 8. Rule 148 reads: "An owner who ships all of his horses away from a meeting forfeits immediately his right to claim at said meeting, but may rearm that right by again starting a horse at the meeting." Rothausers horses, which at the time were trained by A. H. Bowen, had left Monmouth Park for Atlantic City at the time the owner put in a claim for and acquired Jolis Choice. Jolis Choice was ruled ineligible for the race in which she finished second on August 27 and owner Rothauser was forced to forfeit place money. In that race, in which Shore Line earned top money, a redistribution was made, as follows: Henrys Delight, 00; Junox, S390, and Touchdown, 10. After consulting both Rothauser and trainer C. P. Coco, from whom Jolis Choice was claimed, the stewards ruled that the filly should stay in the possession of the former, due to the period of time involved since the claim.
