United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.
AGUA/CALIENTE, March 23. With the 25,000 Dollar Handicap fen days away the track here is busy with thoroughbreds training for the classic Pillow Fight/the New .Zealand horse, ticked off six furlongs in Imin 53 3-osec with 135 pounds up on Thursday. Cuthbert Morse, who is training Pillow Fight, is highly pleased with the New Zealander's last race, although he was beaten by Gallant Sir and Old Depot at <a mile and seventy yards."
I told the jockey,not to abuse Pillow Fight but.to let him make his pace in seven furlongs," Morse said. "Pillow Fight was not ready for a long race and I am not sure that he will reach his best form here, but he satisfied me at seven, furlongs. He is even with Gallant Sir." .Gallant Sir, who is favourite for the race on Thursday,: worked a mile in 2min 21 4-ssec with 'a stablemate. The bi" four-year-old was a sulky worker and refused to break until put into a chute. The best work today is said to have been done by The Nut, a Kentucky importation, who, observers claim, did a mile in 2min 20 l-ssec, and a mile and a furlong in 2min 34sec.
