The opening of the Oakland raeetraek
under the hands of the new proprietorship
will take place on Saturday. Ben Wright
has not only put the track in excellent
shape. but as an old time horseman re-
marked to the turf representative of The
CALL as they walked over the course on
Tuesday, why. I'm Dlest if anyone would
know the place. The Bay District isn't in it
anyhow, nor unless they build entirely
now stands there, do | see. how they can
make it anything like equal" AS matter
OF fact the stands have been placed in fine
repair and the press accommodations I'M
proved. 4 fine band of music will play Sc
lectons, and as the four trotting and pac-
ing events have filed well. a grand after
moons sport is anticipated. The following
are the entries for the various purses:

CALL, admission on the opening day will

the rool-selling. and the prospects of the
success Of well-managed meeting seem to
be assured.
News comes from Washington Park, Chi
cago. that Wilbur Smiths great three-year-
old Zaldivar by Joe Hooker out of Lena's
First is greatly admired. His work is sat
isfying all observers, and he is still a strong
second faVorite for the American Derby at
10 to 1.
Cy Mulkey has sold the sprinter Tim
Murphy by imported Kyrle DAILY out of
Maggie 5, who occasiOned him some trouble
at ST. Louis recently, to that well-kn0wn
Eastern turtle. Arthur White.
Jockey Tom Hazlett, so well known on
California tracks few years ago, has
earned great praise for bis excellent riding
at the recent st. Louis meeting. As a con-
sequence Toms services are in Great re-
quest in Chicago. and he is likely TO catch
the judges eye frequently.
A review of the entries for the great sub
urban handicap would take up too much
space. On recent performances, as the market
shows, Major Domo has far the best chance
of winning this valuable stake But there
are many horses who have been saved es-
peeially for this particular race, and among
these are Tournament, Montana, His High
ness, Nomad, Rey del Rey and others.
After a careful review of the weights and
performances of the horses left in, three
well-known local followers and judges of
Eastern form place the horses as follows:
Picknicker first.
Major D0mo second.
Tournament third.
Many also think that Marcus Daly's
Montana has a great show with Garrison in
the saddle
