HE, SKY-ROCKET, AND TRECLARE 



in the Chesterfield Cup by Saraband, being, however, 

 set to receive only 5 lb. from that good horse. Others 

 beat Loved One it must be understood, as he was 

 unplaced, and he failed again in the Select Handicap 

 at headquarters. 



TRECLARE 



Lord Glanely's Treclare is a son of Tredennis and 

 Clare, and the history of his sire as a racehorse is very 

 soon told. He did nothing. As a two-year-old he 

 never ran, as a three he carried Captain Machell's white, 

 blue cap in the Tudor Plate at Sandown, ridden by a 

 little known jockey and made no show, the absence 

 of his name from the market quotations suggesting 

 that this was extremely probable. He did not come 

 out again until the Newmarket Second October, when 

 he was one of the ruck in a Visitors' Handicap, without 

 a price. As a four-year-old he went to the post for a 

 Welter Handicap at the First Spring and did no better 

 than he had done before. It seems probable that the 

 name of Tredennis was never written in a betting book. 

 But as a good-looking son of Kendal and St. Marguerite 

 it was, as the event proved, very wisely determined to 

 give him a chance at the stud, and the fact that having 

 started at a fee of five guineas he gradually ascended 

 to a fee of 100 guineas is the amplest justification. 

 One of his sons was that good horse Bachelor's Double, 

 another the extraordinarily speedy Hornet's Beauty.
