Very little is doing on the training track. There was a gsod fEhster of'horses this morning, but no work of interest was gone through. Maxim and Sextant did half pace work, while Nelson put in two rounds on the tan at a good solid pace. Nelson is wonderfully well, and the Cup is generallay regarded as a real good thing for him. E ven money would be taken about his ability to win, but the ring stipulate for sto 4; and 5 to 1 is now the best offer about the double. Nelson and Silvio (Cup and Steeplechase).
