The latter r was one of the sensathiis of the turf when In- tirst t made his appearance on the traek as a two-year- I ild. lie was entered against all the stars of that t | Bge then raeiBg at Chicago and he opened in the e | betting at a hundred to ..no. Even after he had been backed i!i vvn by some followers to sixty to one. was still given little consideration by the hook makers, but they awoke to the fact that the real I | money as being bet on the c .It. when hs following i- slill backed him. even when his odds was "j , cur down as short as eight to one. Never will 1 | these who saw that race forget the way Peter ■ . Cue. which they called the bush colt, w on by V ic than a doxen lengths, and it was not until the ,v , races f .r i wo vi a r olds lengthened our on the Chi ," j Cngo tracks and he was asked to pick up Mgh Ii weight, thai he was beaten at all. From that any. whenever Watkins sends anything to the races, his stable is always closely watched ami while he may have no Peter Mi Cue to race in Kentucky, he would doubtless not be coming to blue irrass land unless he thinks he has sontetbing that can show its Is lo the cracks of the Kentucky turf. Few-buses, as two-year-olds, have possessed the speed Peter MeCne had anil he reproduced that speed in one Instance at least when he sent to the races the flying ferns Trick, which holds the record of live- ■ eights of a mile in 58, made at Oakland in BM,
