and soon drove her down to 8 TO 5. Hot
spur. was second choice at 3, and Sinfax at
+. was next in favor. MaIigOld, Jackson and
-1nluuTOp were az SlAtS anu CiSBlo. Nd
Z. beau and Revolver were outside lots at 20
: anG 20. Ed Smith liked Picnic. The mare
was in good order and her liking for the
distance well known. The genial Sacra-
mentO Secretary invested enough ON her at
10 TO to reeonp him for the Lodowic dis
aster. Had Tommy Morton not met with
that accident when Lodowic fell, Picnic
would have won at the finish But Morton
was still sore from his shaking UP and not
at his best strength.
JACKSON LEADS.
There was a long delay at the post, caused
by seven bad breaks away. When the flag
fell Jackson took the lead, with Revolver
and HOtSpur close up, Odettee eighth and
Picnic Just back with her. This was the or
der at the stand. AT the half Jackson led
the band by wo lengths, Nabeau second.
There was a general closing-up down the
backstretch. jackson was still in front at
the 'ihree-quarters and mile, Odette second,
Picnic third. Up the stretch Sinfax and
H0tsDur joined the leaders. jackson falling
p. back to fifth place y rattling sett0 was had
coming home. the whips flying like fails and
all doing their best. Picnic forged ahead,
and, with Odette on her flank, seemed to
have the race in. hand. Morton watched
.Odette almost exclusively, and not until too
late did he see Siniax sent by Ward; from
the outside a la cyclone. He set to work
=: like a steam engine, but Sinfax S rush was
F.. too well timed by Ward and he Just lost on
tile post bya head. Odette was short neck
behind Picnic and Hotspur right on Odette's
flank. It:was a great race, and Wards
brilliant riding makes him about the, best
Iiglit-we ght on the Coast. The time, 2 :QT1s
was remarkable, too, and shows .Sinfax 10
be aycolt of high class.
.oDETTE's GALLANT RUN.
Tie real honors of the race belong to
>. Odptte, however. She gave the winner 30
pounds and was only beaten a strong neck
: by:hinl. The long delay with her heavy.
weight at the post told its inevitable tale.
+: To give such good one as Picnic Is pounds
: and theu.only be beaten a short neck by
her IS-a- great performance also for Odette.
Iail1i. appel at weight for age Odette and
Picnic would have carried 118 pounds each
and Sinfax 100.
