Memphis, Tena., April 3, 1898—[Special to the Breeder and Sportsman], -^ week intervenes before the opening of the greatest race meeting ever held in the South The New Memphis Jockey Club will throw open the gates of Montgomery Park next Saturday, April 9th, and very shortly after 2:30 o'clock Starter "Kit" Chinn's red flag will swish through the air, and the racing season of 1893 will be oo in earnest. Between now and the 9th there a?ay be con- siderable shifting as to the possible starters in the Montgom- ery Handicap. Mr. Schorr will not start Meadowthorpe, as was first intended. The son of imp. Kantaka does not show up well in his work to give his owner encouragement enough to atari him against such horses as Ornament, Boanerges^ Salvable, Ulysses, Buckvidere, MarquiB?, Good Times, For- bush, Sidoaian and that ilk, and unless Presbyterian does particularly well between now and next Saturday, J. W. Schorr & 8on will be conspicuous by the absence of their colors in the Montgomery Handicap. Performance looked overtrained when she arrived from Mobile. She, too, may be absent from the list. However, as extraordinarily large fields do not usually resnlt in true-run races, it will eive bet- ter satisfaction if a field of not more than eight or nine go to the post. Ornament continues to belbe center of attraction. The good son of imp. Order has worked another mile in 1:44, while his stable campanion, May Hempstead, negotia- ted a half in 0:50. She has the two Nashville stakes at her mercy. Buckvidere has again worked a mile in 1:47}, and Abe Can*] thinks he has a right royal chance for the Mont- gomery Handicap. Good Times, too, is thought to be a dangerous factor. All of the candidates are in the best pos- sible condition and are ready to race.
