GOSSIP OF THE TURF.

Western horsemen are of widely differ
ent opinions regarding the class of the
three-year-old colt Abe Frank, who won
the Tennessee Derby last week, and who
is the favorite for the Chicago American
Derby. Some contend that the narrow
margin by which Abe Frank won was due
to Columns clever riding; that he drew
a fine finish in order TO deceive the on
lockers and thus to secure price against
the colt in his next start.
Although the American Derby Is yet ten
weeks away, great interest is already
manifested in the chances Of the various
candidates. and the future betting on the
race is very brisk. Abe Frank Is still
the favorite, despite his hard race in the
Derby. Heno, Clarence Mackey's good
cold that was sold to that young turf
man last year by John H. Madden for a
fancy price, is the second choice, with
McChesney. Runnels and Cruzados the
most fancied of the others. 1t is said
that Heno will surely go to Chicago to
start in the Derby, and If this is the case
the Western colts will have to run faster
than they are accustomed to in order to
beat the Eastern horse, for he showed
high-class form last year, and is reported
to be training in good shape this year.
In connection with the American Derby,
it is rather amusing TO note the state
ment of J. W. Schorr, the owner OF Larry
Young, who was backed not long ago for
several hundred dollars. Mr.. Schorr says
that he cannot understand why anyone
should play his colt or regard him as a
possible factor in the big event. for the
horse will not be starter in the race.
AS a matter of fact, Mr. Schorr says. he
has given the colt away and his remaining
days will be spent in drawing a buggy
for friend.
II seems strange that IL the statement
OF Mr.. Schorr is so the horse should
be allowed TO remain in the list of eligi-
bles, when a simple declaration would
save lots of persons from wagering money
on him. Perhaps Mr.. Schorr has something
up his sleeve and takes this method of
getting a price. However the colt never
showed any form to warrant the belief
that he has chance in the Derby.
The Western racing season opened yes
terday when the meeting at Lakeside be
gan. Lakeside occupies a peculiar posi-
ton in Western racing. There is no
grand stand on the course worth speak
ing of; there are no stakes, as a rule there
are inferior horses; but, above all, the
betting is the worst feature of the track
The books on the Lakeside track are all
controlled by a syndicate; that is. the en-
tire ring is run by one man under the
direction OF the owners OF the track. All
the books in the ring lay the same prices
against the horses. and all make a per-
centage book The ring takes no chances
OF losing money by the victory of any
horse in a race, but is certain always of
a margin of profit no matter whaeeini-
NAL wins. Racing in the West is quite
as popular as 1t is in the East and the
attendance at the tracks around Chicago
average from $500 to $1,000 day.
Richard Dryer will handle the red flag
at the meeting which began at Lakeside
yesterday.
