The Garfield Park derby will be run
today on Glow track at Chicago. This
race is worth SIS. 900 to the winner. rhe
probable starters are Bitten, Prince Of
Darkness, Yo Tsmbien, Little Billy, Tom
Elliott, Phil Dwyer, Huron, Wadsworth,
Romair, Bernardo, Falero, Galindo, Rio
Grande and zaldivar. The sporting ed.
itor Of the HERALD is Of the opinion that
Galindo will prove to be the best 8-year-
old in the west, but according to all &C.
counts the Los Angeles colt is not ready
for bruising race. Assuming that this
is a fact. the writer will have to look
elsewhere for the winner. The other
California candidates are Rio Grande,
Bernardo, Romair and Zaldivar. The
latter is undoubtedly the best of the
quartette at the present writ
ing, but the that colt will in
all probability be saved for the
big American derby which comes of
next week. Bernardo is not bred to
stay the derby route. Romair at last
accounts was = cripple and Rio Grande
would have to be very much improved
colt to win his initial race against such
seasoned horses as will face the
starter. Wadsworth has shown to be
the best colt in the race, but Yo
Tambien has improved 30 much in her
work, that / shall pick the California
ally for the winner. place them to
finish Sc follows:
70 Tambien first.
W&dsworth second.
Huron third.
These calculations are based on the
eupposition that neither GGlindo nor
Zadivar are ready for hard race.

the meager information that has come;
over the wires shout the latest trials OF
Suburban candidates. Therefore the
writer viii have to base his opinion ON
news received by mail up to date and
the bare results of the Norris park
races. When the weights were first
announced the writer selected His High
ness as the winner. 1t should be stated
that this race has never yet been won by
3-year-old. Many experienced horse
men hold that 3-year-old cannot
win q this dist ance against all
aged horses. In 1883, however.

Raceland as the winner. Last Tuesday
this great son of Bill let won the New

weight, and as only two sub

time, it would NOT be hfe 10 overlook

The only objection to tipping Rsceland
is that he is owned by ono of the Dwyer
brothers, and although they have tried

cinches, they have never yet captured
a Suburban. have preeentiment
