“Rot (writes the “Asian”), the dam of Yentoi, the winner of the Cesarewitch, was at one time more or less well known in India, though she was never very much good. She was' an under-sized English mare brought out by Mr. E. H. Gregory some years ago, and she raced with varying success in Calcutta, but never won a big race. After her career in India Mr. Gregory took her home with him, and made her over to Major Edwards, who has, it will be noted, managed t oget one good winner out of her as a result of mating her with Santoi. Rot was a little bit of a thing, about the last mare in the world that one would expect to be a success as a matron, yet they say that Yentoil is a very fine colt indeed.”
