| and that he would stop when another horse
drew up to him. Yesterday he stepped the
first three-eighths OF mile in SO seconds, with
Potentate at his head, and at no part of the
journey did he have time to take rest. A
stable full of "dogs" like him would bring big
prices if put under the auctioneer's hammer.
Few horses have shown such marked improve
ment in such q short space of time.
Jockey Donahue, who has been riding
the borses of the Burns & Waterhouse
string in the majority of their races since
the present meeting began, can ride no
more at the Bay District track This de-
cision was reached by the judges after
watching the careless ride the boy put up
ON Goodwin H. who went back in the bet
ting from 8 to 20 to / and finished third in
the seven-furlong race yesterday. Several
of the exhibitions of horsemanship Dona-
hue has given the past few days have been
open to criticism and did not escape the
attention of the officials in the stand SO
they decided to debar him from riding
further at the track. Some years ago,
while riding in race in the East, the
jockey suffered severe injuries about the
head from fall, which, it is said, has
caused him to be of a morose and melan-
titled to sympathy if so afflicted, but when
gambling public bet their money they
expect, of course. in turf parlance, to get
run for it"
The heavy rainfall caused much scratch
ing among the entire and Starter Fer
guson had light fields to handle. The
going was juicy ana of course mudlarks
were IN demand. How well the talent
succeeded in picking them is demonstrated
by the fact that but one favorite wallowed
in.
There was one genuine horserace and
that occurred in the fourth event. five
furlong sprint. Californians have hitherto
considered Realization almost inyincible
in the mud and he opened 8 to fayorite
in the betting, but he struck the two
speediest mud-runners of his racing career
in Poten tate and Yemen. The betting on
the race was very changeable. Potentate
was allowed to wander back to threes,
when rush was made and his price was
| speedily cut to even money. Yemen
| opened at 21I and went back to to 1.
| When the Potentate money came in
the odds against Realization receded
| to 8 to D. 1t was case of Yemen and
Potentate from the start, the pair racing
out in front, heads apart. Only once
during the running was Realization able to
get up to them, and that effort proved too
much for him, and he soon fell back again.
| Wizard" Hinrichs put up one of his star
rides on Yemen and beat the Burns &,
| Waterhouse horse out neck iii the ex-
| traordinarily fast time, considering the con-
ditions of the track. of / :02. The balance
| of the racing was very ordinary. Patriot,
| backed from twos down to to 5, took the
! opening race at six furlongs, won handily,
while Ida Sauer just managed to beat
Mount Roy nose for the place.
Mount McGregor looked about the best
| of the seven youngsters in the maiden five
furlong dash and was heavily backed at
even money. While leading in the stretch
with mortgage on the purse he bolted
and would have liked to have jumped the
paddock fence. This cost him the race
for by the time Donahue got him straight
ened out he mad been passed by three of
who had been the contending horse, won
easily by six lengths. Valente secured
second place by neck from Harry O.
Nick Halls Tar and Tartar was backed
down from ~ to to 3 to 2 favorite to
win the seven-furlong race, but Wawona,
who We'd in the betting with Centurion
for second choice horses, led all the way,
winning by six lengths, with Centurion
second, eight lengths before Goodwin.
| The last event on the card was originally
intended to be mile and sixteenth hur-
| die race, but on account of the slushy
going the jumps were omitted. Morgan G
had strong following, who backed him
from IL to 5 to an even money chance, but
! he finished third. Barcaldine, an to 1
shot, led all the way and won by head
| from Cicero, who made up an immense lot
of ground through the stretch.
