Great Betting Rac~.
IL is likely to be great betting race.
nothing but Clifford. while Lookout the
Kentucky derby winner. has many
warm admirers from the blue grass
state. Buck McCarn and Chorister are
well liked aud IL IL difiicult to place
money ON any one al these four in the

tomorrow. Don Alonxo is at ? 10 to-
night with st. Leonards an equal favor

what They've Done.
Strathrose. with Manser up, was given a
very slow canter. covering the distance
in 3:0lis. very easy and no hurry TO stop.
Lookout. who 10 said to be short OF work.
did his mile yesterday in l:53a,. The
Keene pair. Chorister and ST. Leonarsls.
were sent the distance close together in
2:.3. but ST. Leonarde finished much the
fresher Of the two. Thcse figures, how
ever. are not Of much value 10 determing
form. as there is no record of the
weight carried by any of the horses
Don Alonzo and ST. Leonards are said
to have gone the mile and half in I'D
with the last quarter in ::z3. and they
will no doubt be the favorites tomorrow
None Of the other contestants has done
such work a. this, IL 10 believed. though
the performances Of some Of the less
notable entries have not been adver-
tised. This element OF uncertainty and

'Ii one Of the most interesting. as it is.
with one exception. the most valuable
stake event ever run In this country.
The weather bureau scnt out at l1:3O
o'clock last night q bulletin showing
that the probabilities were that derby
day would be q cloudy one. accompanied
by showers and local storms. The
weather will also. according to the OBJ
servers. be cooler.
