cars with Gala lilies, palm leaves and
roses. A few minutes later a lady
arrived with choice bunch of roses
which was placed as an offering for
Santiago, the pride of the stable. This
great son of Grinstead and Clara d. bore
his honors meekly, but showed his de-
light by grabbing mouthful Of the re-
porter's coat.
Quite number assembled at the sta

elated and has great expectations for
the Santa Anita horses this year. Mr..
Unruh watched the departure with con-
siderable interest. Mr.. Carter OF Car
terhia took special delight in decorating
the cars. Mr.. and Mrs. Barnaby and
Mr.. Nash, of the Bostonians, and man
ager Wyatt were also interested specta-
tors. The beauty and symmetry of
Santiago won their admiration. S.
Lachman, the San Francisco wine mer.
chant, was fairly enthused with the
Santa Anita flyers. At O'Clock the two
horse cars were attached to the overland
and the Santa Anita string started out
on the campaign of 1892. As the over
land pulled out three hearty cheers were
given for the Santa Anita flyers.
The string this year contains twenty
four horses, of which eleven are 2-year-
olds, six 3.year-olds, six 4-year .olds and
one 5-year-old. Every horse in the
string starts out in good condition.
There is not an ailing animal in the out.
fit, and if they stand the long journey
across the continent, the Chicago pub
lie will have an opportunity OF seeing
racehorses that are racehorses. San
tiago is good appearing animal, and
will hold his own with the best horses
in America. 1t will be great race
when Kingston, Longstreet, Tenny, San
tiago and racehorsee OF that caliber,
come together. Santa Anita has some
very formidable year-olds this year.
What stable in America can show up
three of kind to beat Santa Ana, Es-
peranza and Cleopatra? While Santa
Ana showed to be the best last year, the
readers of the HERALD must not be sur
prised if either Esperanza or Cleopatra
should win more money than the only
3.year-old mare that ever beat La Tosca.
San Joaquin is a very much improved
horse, and her chances for capturing
one of the big Washington Park
handicaps is indeed very rosy. Galindo
is easily the best colt, and Salonica the
best filly in the 3-year-old division. De
spite all reports, Galindo is getting
along famously, and barring accidents,
will carry the Maltese cross in the
American derby. Los Angeles bred
colts have captured the classic event be-
fore, but if Galindo should do the trick
and there are more unlikely things in
this world-why Los Angeles would
gain the palm of having captured the
derby by colt whose sire was bred in
California as we'll as the dam of the colt.
Here's to Galindo, the game and hand

Grande should develop into bread

The 2-year 'olds are grand looking

the Santa Anita 2-year-olds do not cap.
ture some of the big stakes, why there
is nothing in breeding and looks. The
chestnut filly, by Emperor of Norfolk
dam Aritta, is wonderfully developed
and looks like 3-year-old. The get oi
Volante and Emperor of Norfolk make
their debut on the American turf and
they will worthily uphold the prestige
of the two derby winners.
There are number of magnificent
colts. The Emperor of Norfolk-Exper-
iment, the Volante- Blossom and the
Rutherford Jennie B. colts are grand
appearing youngsters, and will make
clean marks on the turf. The chestnut
filly by Emperor of Norfolk, dam Ar.
ltta, has racy look and is built upon
speedy lines. She will be heard from
before the season is half over. The two
year-olds have not been named this
year. which is unusual with the owner
OF Santa Anita. He intends to name
the best two-year-old San Francisco
