"CHERRY AND BLACK" 



Of these, Zoo Zoo was the best, bar Parole. Zoo 

 Zoo was a bay filly by Australian from Mazurka by 

 Lexington— the same cross that produced Attila, Spring- 

 bok, Wildidle, Rutherford, Fellowcraft and 

 Spendthrift. She was a filly that would have 

 been prominent In any year; a deep bay, with good 

 length below, bust short above, that Is from the withers 

 to the coupling, and with her legs so well under her that 

 she was enabled to slip away from the post and set a 

 pace that carried her fields off their feet. The season 

 of 1876 found Mr. Lorillard second on the list of 

 "Winning Owners," with $34,338, of which Parole 

 won $8103, Zoo Zoo $4650, Merciless $3500, Idalia 

 $3650. The leading owner was Hon. August Belmont, 

 with $40,800, largely won by the filly Sultana. 



1877 



It was with an extensive stable that Mr. Lorillard be- 

 gan the season of 1877— nearly fifty horses, fifteen of 

 which were three-year-olds and twenty-six two-year- 

 olds. The stable did nothing great at Baltimore. 

 Oleaster, a filly which Mr. Lorillard had taken in ex- 

 change with his brother for Idalia, proved that he had 



made a bad bargain, as she was of little 

 Bombast class; while Idalia was one of the best of the 

 IV^th ^ ^ y^^^' They did better at Jerome Park, where 



Bombast won the Withers Stakes, and at 

 Monmouth he won both the Ocean and the Robins
