sweet Alice, NICK dalGS speedy mare, Will
run no more. She went to the post equal favor
ite with Myron in the opening race, and while
running in second position fell dead ON the
track, rounding the turn into the homestretch.
Chevalier, who rode her, was badly shaken up
and was unable to ride the balance of the day.
James Neil, the owner of Perhaps was very
much chagrined at the defeat of his pet, and
offered to match his horse against imp. Santa
Bella for $1,000 side. MI Marlborough was
perfectly willing, but when Jim had cooled
down somewhat he thought better of the prop
osition ana concluded there was no money in
match races.
Jockey Lloyd met with serious accident
while exercising horse on the track yesterday
morning. Edna NJ, Santa Rosa and Idaho
Chief were working out, and as the trio turned
into the stretch Idaho Chief, on whom Roske
had apparently lost control, bumped into Ri
cardo, who was out galloping, throwing him
down. Santa Rosa, with Lloyd in the saddle
stumbled and fell over the fallen horse, throw
ing the boy heavily to the ground. When
picked up he was unconscious and blood was
gushing from his mouth and nose. He was
later removed to a hospital as it is feared he is
internally injured Idaho Chief ran away four
miles before pulling up.
With six races on the card the regular
Saturday delegation started in the day
well by landing favorite, but thereafter
they were badly worsted by the bookies,
as one after another of the first choices
were barreled with great regularity.
The first blow they received was in the
two-year-old handicap. Her Majesty, who
had apparently visited the circus again and
turned acrobat, opened favorite at 21z to /,
but later imp. Santa Bella was backed
down to II to 5, sending her to the post
with first call in the betting. Perhaps was
heavily played third choice. Veva, on
the strength of her good showing on Fri
day, received some backing at the very
remunerative odds of II to l.
Perhaps, away second, headed the field
into the stretch, with Heartsease second
and Veya third. The latter had a lead of
length at the drawgate, but had to be
| hard ridden to stall off the Ledette FLY,
who came with a great rush and was
beaten but head. Santa Bella also came
very fast, finishing third, but half length
further away.
The opening race, five and half fur
longs, was taken by Myron, equal favorite
with Sweet Alice. who led all the way and
won by six lengths from My Sweeth cart
Soledad was third
Imp. Ivy was considered many pounds
better than the cheap lot of selling platers
that opposed her in the third race, and
closed to 5 favorite. She failed miser-
ably, for Linville, the second choice. with
5 to l against him, led all the way and beat
the favorite out a length cleverly, reeling
off the six furlongs in 1:15L. Alexis took
third money.
Tim Murphy was an even money favor
lite for the fourth race, four and half
furlong dash, but by the rush made to get
aboard Sir Richard, bringing his price
down from to to 1. it was quite appar-
ent he was the good thing" and such
proved to be the case, for he took the lead
on the far turn and won, ridden out, three
parts of a length in front of Joe Cotton,
who beat the old roam favorite out a
length for the place.
The steeplechase ended in another hard
dump for the talent. Mestor carried ton
of coin at 3 to and never got a chalk
mark. North, at to in the betting, went
out in front and looked very dangerous
factor until nearing the stretch, when
Relampago headed him and won, ridden
out, from Lonnie B, the second choice
North was show horse.
The talent plunged on Mr.. Jingle, the
to favorite for the last race, mile and
sixteenth handicap, and Mr.. Pickwicks
son threw them down hard. Malo Diablo
opened second choice at to 5, but closed
with IL to against him.
Sent away to good start, they ran well
punched until nearing the quarter pole,
where the light-weighted Roma sailed out
in front, and although ridden hard the
favorite could not overtake her, and she
won by length. Malo Diablo was a dis
tant third. The time was slow. 49,.
