Jockey Rgby carried off the honors
By winning tie three last races ON Satnr.
day
Nelson was the lucky boy to receive
the $50 prize donated by the books for
winning on Boistcrous, who was as good
as 80 to |.
1t was reported at the track that
Jockey Bender had broken his leg, but
fortunately that is not the case; the only
trouble is u dislocatcd toe which was
caused by him being run into the fence
on Medca at the first turn, but he
gamely rode the race out and finished
third. 1t is more than likely that he
will be seen in the saddle within Il week
or ten days
Pat McDermott again made his appear
ance in the saddle, Saturday, after let
up Of several months.
Ex.Jockey Fitzsimmons lost Il small
bet on his horse Electro. Never mind,
there might be another cooks race soon,
and you can ride him yourself.
Charles Douglas had his usual five spot
on his good horse Boisterous lie got
30 to for for his money. | suppose you
will treat Jack the Bear to some turkey
cooked by the peerless "Chip.'
Delehanty won a good bet on his
Jockey Asbu,n. He never lets his
mounts run lose.
A. II. & d. II. Morris will have only
one racing string this season. They had
two last year, and the western division,
a rather poor lot, proved Il failure. The
sale of lot OF their two-year Odds here
today means there will be no western
contingent this year, and the all-scarct
will be seen exclusively in the East.
Tom Magee, who has had the running
qualities OF the fast three-year old filly,
Tabourct, has purchased her from
Wyndham Walden fnr $500 +
u. T. Pulsifer was in Louisville on
Thursday, and he made the statement
then that Hamburg will not be a starter
in the Kentucky Derby. He thinks
Plaudit will win the stake. Pusiier
speaks very highly of the Tenny two
year Odds as well rs the vearling CROP
The old sway.back himself, he says,
never looked better.
W. c. DAILY recently lost his noted
bread winner, the five ear-ol brown
,elding Volley, by Imp. The Sailor
lrincc-Nestabell, who died of influenza
1t Gravesend. He was purchased from
he Rancocas Stud as a two. year-old, and
made an cnviabIe record. He ran third
in last years Brooklyn Handicap, to
Howard Mann and Lake Shore.
Look out for the brown four-year-old
sclding by Sable Wilkes, out Of Mamie
Kohl, in the San Mateo consignment to
he Kellogg sale. He has trolted a
quarter in O.33t at play, and mile in
..2u would not hurt him now. He is as
asst as any green trotter ever sent to the
