The Breeders Association and the man.

The Breeders Association and the man
ayers of tie tro;ting meeting row in pro-
gress at the Bay District track must feel
quite elated over the large attendance and
consequently satisfactory cash balance to
the good On the opening day last Saturday.
a GOOD CASH BALANCE.
At 81 a head admission the gate receipts
were stated by posted official to be nearly
$3.50. Estimating the days expenses at the
very liberal sum of $1,000, there was $500
clear to divide between the originators of
the meeting, Messrs. Marvin and Goldsmith.
sKILLFULLY ADVERTISED.
The large gathering was due to skilful adj
vertsing of the attractions offered, mainly
the time trials of the cracks. there being
only one event that bore any resemblance
TO race ON the programme. This was the
Maggie Z, Wanda and Lee race. The ac-
ton of the pool-rooms in closing at l o'clock
also brought in many an additional dollar 10
the track.
WHAT WOULD DRAW.
II, for the remaining two days 81 the meet
ing, good, genuine contests between evenly
classed horses are arranged, the manage
ment may expect again large attendances.
Were Palo Alto not burged up, race, say
for S1oC0 a corner, between him, StambGui
and Marearet 5, with perhaps Homestake
or Hazel Wilkes 10 come in also, would draw
an immense crowd, judging from Saturdays
experience.
Sunol and STEAMBOAT are announced to
start again this week against the records,
but whether they will prove successful or
not is somewhat of guess. Many horse
men are OF the opinion that both CT them
will not be as good again this year as they
have been, also. that for 1880 at least, the
records will not be reduced.
A HINT TO THE BREEDERS.
Saturdays attendance is worthy the con-
sideration of the Breeders Association when
they select the location of their next years
meeting That the Bay District track is as
fast as the Napa course nearly every hor Sc.
man - agreed on, and with tins CONDITION OF
equality end the immense difference be-
tween Saturdays attendance and that OF
Napa, the choice should be unanimously in
favor of holding the meeting here. During
the eight days racing at Napa the total gate
receipts of the bret ders were only SOL. and
that when only a 5e-cent admission fee was
charged. Yet, with the advance Of 100 per
cent in the entrance charge on Saturday, one
day alone, the receipts nearly quadrupled
the entire weeks takings in at Napa.
