loupe, 10 to l shot, galloped in about
twenty lengths in front Of Ell Dorado. an
eyen-money favorite in the steeplechase;
then Felix Carr landed the mile handicap
with BrOadhead, at 6 70 l in the betting.
and finally the curtain was rung down On

1 chalked against his chances. Seaside,
the favorite in the race. got off last, or she
would undoubtedly have won. as she fin
tshed a bang-up fourth and was coming
very fast.
Outside of the handicap. the racing was
of very ordinary description.
The Kentucky stable gathered IN the
maiden race very ha0dily. with a fDe-
looking black colt named Jim Flood, who
was heavily backed.
Felix Carr celebrated his arrival by rid
ing two winners and second horse.
The thirteen two-year-olds that lined up
for the opening race. a five-furIong scram-
Bile, gave Starter Ferguson lots of trouble
before he got them away, But there were
a couple of mishaps to vary the monotony.

then Mabel L KEPT up the excitement by
running away, going the whole distance
before Smith could pull her up. When
the flag dro pped Miss Ruth showed IN

vorite. Mollle r. Round the turn Hueneme
had wrested the lead from Miss Ruth, and
led into the stretch by half length, the
favorite fifth; but in the last eighth Car r
rushed Mol!ie r to the front and she won,
with little to spare, by length from the

Jim Flood. black colt in the Kentucky
stable, was the medium of big plunge in
the second race, short six furlong race
for maidens, opening at 8 TO l and being
quickly hammered down to even money
and off the BIO ard. The other starters
were: Bsrcald inc. Goula colt. Umma, May
Mccarthy. Chi quito and Clara D colt.
May McCartE and the latter were about
equal second choices at 4 and to 1, re-
spectiyely, with long prices against :he
others. Ba caldine showed in front as the
flag fell, being passed soon after by May
Mccarthy, who LED past the half by
head, the favorite third. On entering the
stretch 1som took the favorite to the
front, and from there he came on and won
as he pleased by two lengths, May Nc
Carthy getting the place handily from the
Clara D colt. Time, IA.

Carr, went to the post to l, carrying
some OF his owners money. When the
flag fell Carr took Broadhead out in front,
but at the quarter he was joined by Duke
Stevens and the two raced heads apart
down the backstretch. At the half Weber
had managed to get the Duke slightly in
front, but it was not the Dukes day, for
he seemed inclined to suk. Entering the
stretch, the tavorite Gilead headed the
field. the Duke second and BrOadhead
third. An eighth from home Carr again
got Broadhead in front, aud although Pes
cador came fast at the finish he STAYED his
drive off and won good race by a length,
Pescador beating Glead three lengths for
the place. Time, :41A. Duke Stevens
sulked badly in the stretch and finished
last
The fourth race on the card was
steeplechase for non-winners in 1894, hav-
ing for starters SInbad, Cymoor. Guada-
loupe, The Coon, Ell Dorado and Cuchara.
The Baldwin entry, FL Dorado, was a
hot 1avorte, even money being his post
price. Nick Halls jumper, Cuchars, was
choice at to l, while old GuadaIoupe,
who ran 10 W Wednesdays race, was 10 to l,
but backed down to SIX going to the post
The race turned out very one-sided and
uninteresting, for Guadalupe took the
lead a, the third jump, and gradually
opening up big gap kept increasing it,
winning at the end by twenty lengths, Ell
Dorado second, the same distance ahead of
The Coon. The time, 1922 was within
quarter Of a second Of the coast record.
Cairns was suspended for his poor ride on
The Coon.
Once more the talent received a hard
rap in the last race, a six-fuilong sprint.
Seaside was well-Dacked favorite at 2
to l. The two-year-old Navy Blue opened
at Is aud was played down to 6 to l. his
chances being considered very bright.
O'Bee, a long shot, opening at s to 1. played
by few, was never dangerous. Charles
A was well backed. and Barney Schreher
played his horse Jack Richlieu ana came
very near landing the money. The other
starters were Niagara, HaSna, Jennie
Deane, San Lucas and the Eastern horse
Motor, by Knight of EIler5lie, the sire of
Henry Of Navarro. An eighth from
home it looked as though Carr would
land his third running mount, when Hen
richs came from the bunch with the long
shot. Motor, and in a driving finish beat
Jack RIchlieu out q head. Pasha, on the
inside, was third. Time. 1:14h. Seaside
made a great run. finishing fourth. and
could probably have won had she gotten
away better Jack Richlieu went out in

and O'Bee, the favorite eff last. Pasha soon
took the lead and flattered his hackers by
leading almost to the head of the stretch.
