TALK OF THE TURF.
Racing 0-Day at Oakland, San
Jose and Sacramento.
Trottiug, Pacing and neutrality-suspicious. and
Tsmmany-Marcus DAYS C0mhina-
tioi-Eastern Gossip.

RACING VIII hold sway In various parts OF
the State to-day. In our own immediate
peighborhoOd Oakland claims first notice.
Here an interesting programme Of three
harness and two running event, constitutes
the bin of fare, and it may be fairly as
sumed that the hulk Of the local raeegoers
will spend the 'Glori Gus Fourth" across
the bay. Not a few. however. will take
trip TO san jose, where some frst-class
trotting and pacing will take place. The
Palo Alto and Burke-Vioget strings Will
furnish several horses. and some splendid
time will doubtless be made and line
gotten on the lrotters for tie fall races.
Fresno, Santa Rosa, Eureka, Petaluma and
Sacramento also hold meetings, and horse
men al over the Pacific Coast Will look cut
eagerly for tn e results.
STRONG COMBINATION.
Quite a number of local TURTLES who won
their pile on Mon tana in the Suburban fol-
lowed the fortunes Of the sia0.e and played
Tammany Oh Saturday for the ltealiZaiioD,
the richest stake for three year-oids in the
country. Matt Byrnes made no secret
whatever abont the colts chances to win
the big event; in fact rather b0asted of
them. Then the public had already seen
him perform with the snapper on his
back in the valuable Withers stakes at Nor
lis Park. In this Tacs the chestnut son Of
IroQuois aud Tu lahoma shove his heels
to such crackajacks as Patron, Yorkville
Belle, Mars, Sir Arthur and Dag0net, win
ming in romp by two open lengths,
carving I22 pounds and running the mil
in 40. Since then he has been let mp in his
work, and was sent q couple of races for
his health, in which he was never extended.
He has Won upward OF S3I. 900 this season
for his fortunate owner, Marcus DAILY, ard
his popular trainer and owner must be con-
graduated all srOuni. The combination Of
ByrGes and Garrison with two such horses
as Montana and Tammany is indeed q
strong enc.
A HOT FAvoRITE.
Zaldivar, Wilbur Smiths American Derby
over in Oakland for the Oakwood handi-
cap. He was we'll played, too, but
Notwithstanding that the distance (oue
mile and furlong) suited him, and he had
Griffin up. he was never even heard from in
the race. The track was heavy and sloppy,
and it seems evident that the son of Joe
Hooker does not inherit the quality pos
sesS ed by bis sire as mud lover"
Now that so many horsemen who have
had turf experience in the antipodes are liy-
ing in America and following up the game
the difference between the records OF each
country for The various distances will prove
interesting. 1t must borne in mind that
all races in the Colonies are run over grass
tracks. which are considered to be several
seconds slower than American made tracks.
