ing well, will start in the mile and a
lquarter race.
Phalas Jr., 3-year-old chestnut

start in the race for green horses; he

possibly race here and his owner will
be lucky If he has him in shape to
ship back after New Years Day
Silas S is looking grand and Will
make big bid for the free for all. He
likes this track. as he demonstrated

Frank S looks to have the half-mile
dash at his mercy, as does Vioris the
mile dash. Antidote should be able to
again score in his class. The battles
between Weller and McCloskey in the
long distance events will be bitterly
fought, and it, as is stated, Weller is
hack to his old time form, he should
heat Wilson'S horse at a mile and q
half. Tom Ryder will so close for the
free for all, about close enough to win.
ON New Years Day Watassa will run
we'll in the five furlongs dash and Maui
Rose should lead the hunt in the pony
race if eligible. Vioris should land
the goods" in the six furlongs dash.
The majority of horses here were
schooled to the starting gate before
they came down from the Coast and
it will undoubtedly be found to be a

formerly in vogue.

gloves, came down en- the last Kinau
They are both heavyweights, weighing
somewhere about 100 pounds. Harris
used to be sparring partner of Hank
Griffin of Los Angeles and last August
defeated Munro in eight rounds before
the Sacramento Club. These lads will
probably box ten rounds or so and the
winner be matched against local tai
ent.
