Goose has not ridden much in the East, but those who have followed his work in the West, insist that he is quick at the post, a thoroughly good judge of pace and a strong finisher, and that he will measure up well with the hoys riding here It is interesting to recall in this connection that Ganz, who was kill- ed a vear or two ago, was a brother to Mr. Belmont"s new jockey.
