CHANGE OF QUARTERS.
It is of/ten noticeable that when a horse fails i to act up to the expectations of Ms trainer, and runs badly, when according to that worthy lie should have run well, lie is dubbed a rogue and compelled to race m a hood or winkers. However, m most cases it is not the prad. that is the rogue ; for after a horse has been dropped to the rear too many times, he will never race generously, and' falls into the bad habits taught him by his connections. The only remedy for a case like this is a. long . .spell and a change of tactics or stables. It is a common occurrence for ahorse to improve out of all knowledge when his quarters are changed.
