Circus Clown Sent to Riyer Downs When trainer Strother Griffin shipped to Chicago Sunday from Keeneland with the exciting Judy Rullah and four other two-year-olds, he turned the veteran Circus Clown over to Herb Stevens, who will take the W. J. Walden 10-year-old to River Downs. The Tiger gelding was returned to training not long ago when he displayed a definite dislike for retirement on the farm.* Griffin is pointing Bwamazon Farms Judy Rullah for the Pollyanna Stakes at Arlington. Accompanying the . speedy Nasrullah miss were Dejerine, a juvenile daughter of Djeddah owned by Bwamazon, and C. E. Campbells Free Fella and Our Day. Blades of Blue Grass: Considerable enthusiasm for a match between Swaps and Nashua is evident throughout the Blue Grass. Both have caught the imaginations of professionals and non-professionals alike. . . . Sons and grandsons of Hyperion already have sired 20 stakes winners this year. . . . The success of last weeks paddock sale at Belmont further bolstered local feeling that yearlings will sell very well this summer Blenheim II, now a patriarch of 28, will be represented by a single yearling this summer a,t Keeneland — a colt in the Crown Crest consignment.
