was driven over TO the waiting post. He
warned Flynn to do his best to win, and it is
more than likely that he did, even though
beaten out nose.
The Pacific Coast Jockey Club has postponed
the date of the opening at its new track at
Ingleside from November to November 16.

of trotting events viii follow under the
auspices of the California Jockey Club, for
merly scheduled to be given at the Oakland
racetrack.
The popular bookmaker and owner, George
Rose, announces his retirement as a horse
owner Yesterday he sold Mulberry and Leon
vile to Phil Archibald, and the balance of the
string will be disposed of as soon as purchasers
are found. Mr Rose states that on account of
his many bookmaking enterprises he had too
many matters to attend to, and so concluded to
dispose of his horses.
The usual Saturday crowd did not turn
out to witness the racing at the track yes
terday. The air was raw, and an easy
chair in front of fireplace full of brim-
ming Goals was undoubtedly preferable to
the task of figuring out the winners with
a great many. The entries were light, but
some excellent racing was witnessed.
After favorites had captured the first two
events, it looked as though they might
sweep the board, but there came an abrupt
halt, beginning with the third race. The
third choice and two second choices took
the remaining events.
The most closely contested race of
the day was the six-furlong handi-
cap for two-year-olds, having for start
ers imp. Santa Bella, Benham and
Sam Leake. The last named colt
opened 4 to favorite in the betting,
bat went back to 13 to 10, the coin going
in on the English-bred filIy, whose price
was gradually rubbed from threes to s to 8.
The favorite was never in it from the
jump. Santa Bella went to the front and
led until furlong from home, when Ben
ham drew up on even terms. In most
ex citing drive to the wire Chevaier man
aged to get Benham's nose in front the
last jump and got the decision. The win
her, who IS son OF tlam beau, covered
the distance in the remarkably good time
of 1:l3%. The glory of the race. though,
certainly belongs TO the tilly, for Benham
was IN receipt OF a big lump of weight.
The mile and q sixteenth handicap re-
suited IN the talent getting badly dumped.
Taking his last run into consideration, the
additional half furlong was supposed to
make 1t cinch for Claudius, and he was
backed down from 3 to to eYens. The
brown horse Del Norte, with the pull in
weights in his favor, turned the tables on
his conquerors of the early part of the
week. Annette, as usual, went to the front
when the flag sent them away, and for a
while it looked as though she might make
runaway race OF it. Swinging into the
stretch Tor the wire Del Norte began clos
ing the gap rapidly, but she held on
gamely, and it was not until the drawgate
was reached that she was passed. AT this
point both Del Norte and Claudius headed
her, the brown horse beating the favorite
out length in 1:4734. McLight showed
up prominently in the early part of the
race, but sulked and was never dangerous
in the stretch.
Tips were thicker than falling fakes of
snow on the first race of the day, a five
and half fUrlong dash, but Bravura, the
s to choice, managed TO down them all,
winning ridden out a length before Miss
Fletcher, with Bob Tucker in third place.
The second race, also a five and a half
turlong run, was taken by the to favor
ite imp. Miss Brummel, who led all the
way and won by a length and a half from
Road Runner in 1:O7, a remarkably good
performance. Rico was third, but a neck
away.
Several barrels of Sunday money went
up IN smoke on the mile and half hurdle
race that concluded the DAYS sport.
Auteuil was again played for killing; all
kinds OF money cutting the odds against
him from s to 5 to 4 to 5. He laid second
to Gold Dust until the last hurdle was
reached, where Bellringer came up and
the trio took the jump, heads apart Bell
ringer easily outfooted the fayorite to the
wire, winning by over two lengths in
2:4513, three-quarters OF second below the
coast record.
