The Suburban Handicap to BE Run al
Sheepshead Saturday.

The lovers of horsefesh all over the coun-
try will turn their eyes toward Sheepshead
bay Saturday when the great Suburban race
will be run. Present indications are that
fully twenty horses will go to the post,
with Ben Holiday carrying top weight.
This field will be the largest that has lined
up for several years back, only eleven start
ing last year, and nine in 1897. Banaster's
great victory of the Brooklyn handicap will
doubtless make him big favorite, and it is
curious fact that the six first horses,
touted to have more than good chance to
win, have names that begin with the letter
B." Banaster, Ben Holiday Briar Sweet,
Bannockburn, Box and Bangle. The horses
