Fair Play (USA) x Hour Hand (FR), by Ethelbert (USA)
Family 4-i
One of only a few fillies bred and owned by August Belmont II to achieve any racing distinction following the career of Beldame, How Fair's success was limited to the 1923 Coaching Club American Oaks. In that race, she defeated champion 3-year-old filly Untidy easily, albeit with the aid of an 8½ pound weight concession. She proved a disappointing broodmare, though in fairness, she was bred to indifferent stallions.
Race record

As an individual
A bay filly. She suffered a leg injury during a rough trip while running in the 1923 Gazelle Stakes.
As a producer
How Fair produced six named foals, of which five started and two won. Her only produce of any significance was her 1930 daughter Nut Brown (by Peanuts), dam of stakes winners Yates Senior (by Fairmond), Austin Yates (by Onslaught II) and Fred Yates (by Gala Hour).
Connections
Foaled in Kentucky, How Fair was bred and owned by August Belmont II. She was trained by George Odom. How Fair spent her broodmare career as the property of Robert Gerry's Aknusti Stud. There is no further report of her after she produced a 1936 foal that died unnamed.
Pedigree notes
How Fair is inbred 5x5 to two-time English champion sire King Tom. She is a half sister to multiple stakes winner Horologie (by St. Amant). Her dam Hour Hand is a half sister to 1917 American co-champion 3-year-old male Hourless (by Negofol). She is also a half sister to Blue Glass (by Prince Palatine), dam of 1933 Belmont Stakes winner Hurryoff (by Haste) and stakes winners Blind Play (by Fair Play), Broadside (by Man o' War) and Unbreakable (by Sickle).
Hour Hand and her siblings are out of the Rock Sand mare Hour Glass II, a half sister to 1902 Jockey Club Stakes winner Rising Glass (by Isinglass). Hour Glass II is out of Hautesse II (by Archiduc), whose dam Hauteur (by Rosicrucian) won the 1883 One Thousand Guineas and also produced Hautesse II's full sister Harfleur, second dam of 1911 Prix du Jockey-Club winner and two-time French champion sire Alcantara II.
