HOAR ON DIDEROT IS THROWN
AND DUCKOY TAKES THE PURSE
Birkenruth Given Fifteen Days Suspension by the
Oakland Judges---Favorites Out of Luck.

6F HE first two races on the card al
| Oakland yesterday broke so nicely
for the crowd that the subjects
| IN of the Queen of Bavaria could
| see millions in sight. Then four
! faVor1tes were laid to rest and there is
no telling how much the books cleaned
up Of these Inflated choices Diderot
heavily played at to 10, met with an ac-
! c1dent. Jack Atkins horse was consid-
| ered by his owner certainty to beat
Duckoy for the mile selling run, but at
| the first turn he was badly worsted in a
| pumping match, and Hoar was dumped
| OH into the mud. Duckoy ridden bv
OConnor and racing for the first time in
| the colors of his new owner Green Nor
| ris, then went on, winning at the wire
from Rushfields in hard drive Birken-
ruth, who rode Lodestar and finished
third, was neld responsible for the ac-
c1dent and his mount was disqualified. In
an endeaVor to stop rough riding if pos
sible the officials decided to suspend the
offending jockey for fifteen racing days.
Milas, from the Jennings stable, did not
have much to beat in the maiden two
year-old number, and al odds of to won
almost easily from The Maniac and Wan
dering Boy. Angeleno, from the Baldwin
stable, came in for considerable backing,
but did not look ready.
This was followed by the still easier
win of the seven-furlong event by the
favorite, Flamero. Mounce had the
mount and drew away from First Shot
at leisure. Canejo ran third.
In the Futurity course sprint for two
year-olds Bullman Monte succeeded in
beating the gate and was never caught
The winner closed at odds of 615 to and
was all out at the wire to beat Phyllis a
length.
MOunce niIoted Marelio fba fa1,orita
and had the misfortune to have his sad
die slip back, losing the show to Sol
Link Jackson, the midget lightweight
again landed Darlene a winner The
mare did not attract much attention in
the betting in the mile and a sixteenth
run, but led from start to finish Birken-
ruth rode a poor race the faVorite
Alicia, losing the place to Hohenlohe by
four lengths.
To all appearances the tumble Hoar
took from the back of Diderot did not jar
him to any marked extent. He came out
right after it and put Merops over the
line first in the concluding three-quarter
dash at odds of 13 to l. Decoy, the favor
ite was cut off at the head of the stretch
and in drive lost the verdict by head.
Invictus finished third.
Track Notes.
M. Aczel writes to Presiding Judge
Murphy from Budapest, stating that he
would like to secure the services of
first-clasS rider. Ruiz could probably
make a mark over in that country.
Starter Hoffman told the judges it
looked as if ]. T. Woods made no effort
to get FloronsO away from the barrier,
and many others were of the same opin-
ion. This is not the first time Woods
has been left, and the matter may re
celYe some consideration from the stand
Winnie OCOnnor added to his winning
column list by getting to the wire first
on Milas and Duckoy.
Birkenruth will ride out to-days en-
gagements.
