What the City and Suburban Handicap is
to the English race-eoing public, 20 is the
Coney Island Jockey Clubs Suburban to the
American. When the race was first insti-
tuted. Ave years ago, Mr.. j. G. X. Lawrence
little thought of the many imitators 1t would
have-the Brooklyn, the City, the Kentucky
are imitators. and, Us such. are compliments.
The Suburban was first run in 1884 and was
won by E. j. McElmeel's Gen. Monroe-a
great horse that year-in Q. 1lX, from q field
of twenty Pontiac, in 1885, beat a field of
fifteen in 2.O9N; Troubadour, in 1886, run
away from twenty in AJAX, and Eurus, last
| year. did the same in 2 10.
Racing experts say that to-morrow's race
will be the best Suburban ever run, and
record time for the distance-Dry Monopole's
2.07 for q mile and a quarter in the Brooklyn
Handicap last year ~will-have to be beaten
by the flyer that wins it.
With the splendid weather which Tune has
furnished safter the terrible May rains, the
fine field of starters and the increased in
| terest in racing all over the country, the
struggle tomorrow gives every promise of
being a grand one. TIL race is worth in the
neighborhood of $1O,O 900 to the winner and
between twenty and thirty thousand people
will Grove every boat and train to get TO the
