sales of horses in training ever
held. There is much speculation
as to what the different horses will
bring. Such horses as Butterfly
Rainapo Keenan and Nanki Pooh
will undoubtedly bring big prices
but the flower of the stock is Has-
tings. The youngster has his carter
before him. He has raced three
times and has as many victories to
his credit. Handspring is among
the horses he has beaten. He pos-
sesses speed and stamina and is
royally bred. He is by Spendthrift
out of Cinderella. Hazlet is an-
other colt that will bring a big
figure.
