NO SURE WINNERS.
The Turtles Must Do Some Hard
Guessing This Year.
The Horsemen Say There Are Too Many
Entries, and Too Many Unknowns-
Work at the Track.

Lee Sharer of the Los Cerritos stock
farm, is a California man who has a
horse that is to be driven to win the
three-year old stake, and he will also
have something to say as to the distribu-
ton of other purses.
Sharer gobbled up nearly everything he
he went after in San Francisco. With
Georges Woodthorp he won the mile
and repeat in 4:53 and handy Kitty B
just waltzed away with the IL mile dash
in 2:43l@
Moorzouke is another member of the
Sharer string that proved winner, TAX
ing the one and one-sixteentn mile dash
from all three-year- olds in 2:41. Lady Ell,
g PAGER with 2:18 mark, is also mem
Der of his family, and he has several
others that rank as .'greenies'' that may
not be so under done when the pools
begin to sell.
PETE WILLIAMS STRING.
Pete Williams, the old stand by OF
many stiff contests, came in yesterday
morning with dozen trotters and run
ners.
Silver Bow, who is entered in the free
for-all, is the pride ct the Williams q
Morehouse string. The BOWS mark is
2:161<. Leap Year is another swift one
that, while he is only recorded at 2:26, is
said to work very handy about 2:20.
MAGENTA, Montana, Ornament, Silver
Ring, 'sNot YETI Mausferd. Gussie,
Egyptian Prince are other turf testers
that cannot be easily gagged as to what
they are really worth.
THE HoRsEMEN BOTHERED.
'sYou ought to have good meeting
and don't see race l can win,' he said
of. li., III,
tries. This is what bothers all the horse
men. There are so many horses entered
in the different races that they cannot be
fixed if they desired. The large percentage
OF new horses of the younger set that are
showing up very speedy makes it ex-
treEely uncertain. The fact is the oldest
track follower cannot do better than watch
the horses and pick his favorlte from the
herd.
All the horsemen say that there are
more entries and a better class of horses
! here than at any OF the other western
meetings.
Heating has some fast horses in his
string. Our Dick has mark of 2:10li !,
Ottinger 2:2Ils and Jim L 2:25. He has
also green PAGER to puzzle the pool buy
ers with,
WORK ON THE TRACE.
A. D. Helm drove Bawley three heats
on Friday in 2:25-56.
! Riley Kent's Rockford is working out
in 2:S6. He is long range fellow, six
teen hands two inches high. Ottinger is
looking little out of sorts, but he no
doubt will pull himself together after a
days rest. The trip from the coast seems
to have used him up.
A. D. Helms Alfast is pretty as pic
ture, but stable boy said he was
''troubled with the Slows
! Tom Harris cut some didos on the track
with Alta, drawing the young one in
1928.
Irene L., now of the McEvoy brothers
string, is doing fine work.
The Denver races closed yesterday,
which will allow the Colorado horses to
arrive here Monday.
! There are already more horses on the
track than there were last year and there
| is a great scarcity OF stalls.
The decision of the managers TO make
I the admission so cents was popular move
that ought to greatly increase the atten-
dance.
