The San Francisco call., 1895-10-12
THE BAY DISTRICT RACES.
Long Priced Outsiders Took
the First Three Events on
the Card.
TREACHERY RAN A FINE RACE.
Oakley Made His First Start at the
Meeting and Won Cleverly
From Warrago.

Nine bookmakers weighed in yesterday, the
San Francisco Club retiring.
William Dixon arrived at the track from the
north yesterday with the iron mare Quirt.
Claude Burlingame rode very clever race
on Free VIII, and gave the crowd great scare
for while by the way he hustled Miss Pollard
| along.
Lee Shaner who trains Free Will, has cut
number of long shots loose during the past
simmer. Miss Pollard, who was backed down
in the third race from 100 to 30 to 1, is also in
his charge.
Jockey John Sullivan, who has been over the
Montana circuit, is back, looking as though he
has been taking good care of himself. Sui
livan is capable rider if he could confne
himself to ginger ale as beverage.
Young Riley, on Navy Blue, put up as good
a ride on the outsider as has been seen at the
| track in some time. If he can learn to get
away from the post without stopping to say
good-by to the starter he will yet become
good Jockey.

| popular bookmaker that ever chalked up odds

will arrive Sur day. Secretary Milroy received
a telegram from Barney yesterday, requesting
him to reserve twenty-one stalls for the string
A string of thirteen horses, owned by the
Montana copper king, Marcus DAILY, arrived at
the track from Great Falls yesterday in charge
OF w. D. Randall who will train and race them.
Following is the makeup Of the stable: San
Lucas, Sylvester, Fiiian, Sleeping Child, Ala
habad, Senator Bland, Audimere, Afiatus.
Trapean, New Moon, Skalkiho, Hard Tack and
Pert Child. Salvador, Ill Used, Ryder Ali and
the imported English stations Child of the
Mist, Inverness and Bread Knife are all repre-
sented in the lot. The gray mare Minnie Beech
also came in the same "Spud" Williams,
Harry Rrown and Harry Fields will do the
riding for the stable. All of the above horses
are for sale. The millionalres principal string
is expected in California the latter part of the
present month.
After the third race had been run yester-
day the fog began rolling in, obscuring a
view OF the horses running in the last two
I events for part of the distance Had it
rolled in previous to the first race thick
enough to have made view of the bang
tails impossible until they flashed past the
judges the talent would have been happy
for they never would have known how
they lost their money. The first three
races on the card ended just the way the
hookies ordered them-that is, would have
done so could they have had that privilege.

second.
Little Flush FLY, Leonville and Rose
Clark were ali heavily backed to win their
respective races and their defeat partially
paralyzed the speculative fraternity for the
time being, but they rallied and regained
some of their vanished wealth by backing
the fayorites in the last two races of the
day.
The opening race, fve-furlong rush fol-
