April 3.— Both Marriage and Four Freedoms, winners of the New Orleans and Widener Handicaps, respectively, and now pointing for Saturdays 0,000 Tropical Handicap here, were on the Hialeah Park racing strip this morning for light exercise.

On Sunday afternoon Four Freedoms was sent over the Tropical Handicap route in 1:56%, nicely in hand, while on the previous morning he breezed a half mile in :51j , also under restraint.
