The Pacific Coast TIotting horse Breeders
Association held a meeting yesterday after
noon and agreed to accept the management of
the trotting races and trials against time that
will take place at the Bay District Track
next Saturday, and also on the 14th and 18th
inst.
The associations Treasurer presented the
following statement of receipts and dis
bursementS for the year and for the recent
meeting held at the Napa track: Receipts
Entrances, $500; still due, 5000; cash on
$3.50; privileges, S27l9; gate, S7l5; total re-
ceipts, S16,S6l. Expenses-Paid in purses,
S12, 594; music, $3.50; help, 1915; National
Association fee, 500; printing. S225; ad-
vertising. $3.50; Secretary and rent, $500;
suudries, 500; tai expenses, SIS, 794.
The account shows balance to the credit
OF the association of $l067, to which must
be added about 500 due from members for
fees and dues. The showing is good one
for the association. as it proves that it is
independent of the gate receipts to hold
meeting and that there are enough trotting-
breeders sufficiently interested to make any
future meeting as successful as the last one.
Several items OF expense will be reduced
in the future. such as the music, which will
probably be dispenstd with. Although
only SIS was taken in at the gate during
the meeting, the association prefers the
Napa track TO race over, as it considers it
the fastest in the State and enables it to
make the records so much desired for its
horses.
An error was inadvertently made in last
week S racing notes in staNdg that none of
the horses in L. ii. Grifiin's stable had won
this season. The fact is that Griffin won
two races, in good time and company, With
Ed Fay, in the three minute class one at
Napa and the other at San Jose. Griffin
also won with haywood and DR.. Swift.
Besides this he took second money on sew
eTal occasions in fast time and against fast
horses. Griffin has his string, quartered at
the Bay District Track, looking in excellent
order, and they all show his able manage
ment and training ability.
He is only jogging DR.. Swift now, but the
horse locks tit enough to go a bruiSing race
on short notice. Kodak, the pet OF the
stable, and as good two-year-old PAGER as
there is on the Coast. is developing great
speed. 1t is no trouble for her TO reel off
quarters in 301@, and Griffin stands ready 10
match her for coed money against am other
two,,year- old PAGER on the Coast Sol
Wilkes, Waffle, Henry ' and some green
youngsters, also in Grithn'S care, are going
and doing we'll.
1t has been so cold and disagreeable at the
Bay District Track for the past few days
that the cracks have felt indiSposed to do any
fast work. The track is in the finest kind
OF shape, and yesterday Garrety's game
PAGER Hummer went mile in 2:l7h.
Should the weather be bright and warm
next Saturday, the opening day OF the
special trotting programme, some very fast
gaits will be shown, especially by Stamboul,
who Is in prime condition. Sunol. unfortu-
nately, has come into season, and therefore
will hardly be right to do her best next Sa;ur-
