that the time was due for a dump. but
who is going TO do the dumping?' was
the question. Rapido and Los Prietos
were big favorites and the betting was
furious Still the shortenders felt con-
fident that there was to be a fall, but
We're puzzled as to the pick. Her
manita and Coda were taken by many
for good things. while Carness was
brought up by others. In the mutuals
any one of those not favorite in the
auctions were good for big money The
crowd saw a good start, Encino first
away. Carness jumped into the lead
in the first turn and stayed there to the
finish. Encino ran second to the three
quarters, where Coda was negotiating
for the place. Coda was next to Car
ness in the stretch and Midget Hal
Brown never felt more comfortable in
his life than he did in that race. He
felt the brackets closing in around his
Liliputian form. If there had been a
pommel on his saddle the crowd could
not ave seen the look of confidence
on his beaming face. He finished a
length ahead of his rival and Coda
kept the place by her long nose from
Rapido. the favorite. while Los Prietos.
the other choice. was a neck short of
third. Time. 1:44.
