Tie track yesterday was very heavy and the
racing of rather a fat character. from the fact,
partially no doubt. OF a prevalent feeling of de-
preston owing TO the approaching close OF the
most successful race meeting that California
has ever known.
Cheval-r has not been doing at all goo
work Ia the saddle the past week, his perform
ance on Polaskt in the first race being very
poor one.
Normande won the second race in fairly easy
fashion after WarragO had looked to have II all
her own way furlOng from home,
The third race brought out rafting finish
between NutwoOd, by by and DIR. Ross, whose
entry was allowed to be added 10 the pro
pramme at the last moment, a circumstance
which necessiiared the nsnai DELAY for new
book. NutwoOd, in the final drive won by
something over a length, with Hy by half
length IN irOnt Of DIR. Ross, but NutWood, who
had swerv-d across ny by at the head of the
stretch, was disqualified, and Shields horse,
WHO was hot fSyorlte, awarded the race.

argument Ia the flve-furiong handicap for TWO
