FAVORITES NOWHERE
Three Red.HOt First Choices Are
Knocked Out.
An Extreme Long-shot Wins-What Nero Did
Yesterday-A Horst mans Opinion
Of Jockey Narvaez.


For the third day of their fall meeting the
Blood-horse Association had three import
ant factors in its favor, namely: the weather,
the track and the attendance. All Of these
were good.
NARvAEZ CRITICIZED.
IT," said well-knoMn horseman to THE
CALLS turf reporter yesterday at the track,
Senator Stanford, Ariel Lathrop, Henry
Walsh, 7. II. Williams and Ira Rumsdell,
who all five are directly interested in the
running division of the Palo Alto Stock
Farm, desire TO preserve the reputation of
the stable, the first thing they ought to do
is to discharge from their employ the foul
mouthed. Unconditional. little cub named
NarvaeZ, who is supposed to be riding the
stables best horses. All the Eastern and
Coast turf critics consider him utterly in
competent Because he won few races on
Palo Alto horses that OutclasSed their oppo-
nents by long odds, Narvaez had an enlarge
ment of the Uranium. When he got East,
except when he was up on such world
beaten as Racine, the Eastern jockeys made
a monkey of him. Even third-rate Gutten-
berg jockies could outride him. The leading
Eastern turf writers. who know cobbler
from jockey, called him a fragrant rider.
BAD REPUTATION.
Columns upon columns have been writ
ten about the way he rode Racine in that
great colts last race. Narvaezis, in articles
a column long, called anything but square
rider for his openly accused pulling OF
Racine. Since this boy returned from the
East lie has Teen closely associated with
number of ool-room idlers and lOafers,
who, if the police chose to, could be ar
rested any moment for vagrancy.
UNLESS Senator Stanford, Ariel Lathrop
and Henry Walsh have less regard for the
reputation of the Palo Alto colors than for
the applause of a number of robbers who
use Narvaez as tool through which the
public and his employers are detrauded,
this little foul-mouthed object should be
taken by the ear and sent to JOIN Garlic
ct al"
CRIPPLED by THE GOVT.
Henry Walsh, the well-known trainer OF
the Palo Alto stable, was not present last
Tuesday at the overwhelming defeat OF The
stable. He was laid up with rheumatic
govt, and only hobbled out on clutches yes
terday, just in time to have the additional
modification of seeing Narvaez lose another
race with fearless. On Saturday fearless
carrSi ing 1O7 pounds. The CALLS report
of the race stated that she won easily by
three-quarters of lenth from Zingarella.
Acclaim and Cheerful also ran, the latter
fini sling last. On Tuesday the latter ran
Sinfax 10 q head in 81 over seven furlongs.
NERo'S WORK OUT.
1t must have been most annoying to Walsh
when he worked Nero yesterday three
quarters in IA, to have this colt, which
Walsh states is the best two-year-old ne
ever had, Ra inc and Flambeau not barred,
SO easily beaten on Tuesday. Yet Nero was
defeated under Narvaez' riding IN Tuesdays
in 81. And again, rumor and the news
paper accounts credit Nero with a run over
seven-eighths at Oakland this year in
1:271a. On Tuesday Nero was third in l 81,
with no concession of weight to the winner.
1t is also reported that on Wednesday
morning the second trainer of the Palo Alto
stable called on Henry Walsh, who was
then sick in bed at the Lick House, and,
with tears in his eyes, assured Walsh Of his
regret that the stable colors had been so
signally defeated

severe shaking up, his winning might have
been deferred.
