The feature OF the card at sheepshead
Bay to-day Is the Twin City Handicap.
1t Is a race over mile and a quarter OF
ground. and the Handicapped mas sue
ceeded in bringing the lot well together.
Sir Walter carries top weight OF LIS
pounds. conceding a great deal to his
competitors. According to the scale,
however, Henry Of Navarro Is really
the top weight, as he carries six pounds
over weight for age. This will prob
ably cause his withdrawal. There are
no less than five three-year-olds In the
race. and. judging by form. Henry of
Navarro holds them safe. or the all
aged division. Bassetlaw and The Pep
per may be withdrawn because OF their
race yesterday. Candelabra is likely
to start in the fourth race. and Sir Wal
ter may be scratched. The race. there
fore. Is q hard one to select a winner
from. Faraday was a good horse at
Saratoga, and Is likely to so well to-day
dangerous. The race is very open
affair.
The Dash Stakes for two-year-olds
brings out the great Lissak; the speedy
been giving weight to and beating al
aged horses. Brandywine. The Com
moner, Havoc. Sir GA lahad. Agitator and
others. 1t Is a rafting good field and
should furnish as interesting. a contest
as the Futurity. Brandywlne beat a bet
ter lot In the Futurity than he meets to-
day. and he got a bad deal besides. He
looks a real good thing In this race and
should be hard to beat.
The fourth race. a mi.e, has as prob
able starters Ducat. Cande!abra. Jack Of
Spades Prig and others. Leigh's colt Is
in great shape, but he will have a hard
time beating Candeiabra.
The other races are fairly interest
ing. Nottingham in the first and Hugh

their respective races at their mercy.
In the third there Is little choice be-
tween Indra. Antipode and DIR. Garnett.
