kinloch's race meeting was the best in
point of form ever run anywhere. 1t would
simply be impossible to find a meeting
where race horses ran more truly. Not
only did the best horses furnish the con-
tenders in each race. but the fields seemed
to run right through as they should from
first TO last.
The Kinloch meeting proved this much:
That all the old 'guff' about bad boys. bad
horses. bad tracks. etc. is buncombe Boys.
track and horses were the same at Kinloch
as at Delmar. Bad boys. bad horses. and
varying conditions Of track did not spoil
form at kinloch
There is not a single reason on earth why
Delmar should not have as good racing as
Kinloch. Not a single one. All that Judge
Brady has to do is to take care not to lend
ears to bettors or bookmakers. no matter
| who that bettor or bookmaker may be. and
TO decide matters on his own impression of
| the actual management of the horses rather
than on the betting.
Betting is bad index at Delmar. The OPP
orators know that Mr.. Brady sets much
store by their betting.
Hence. when, they run their bad races
they have tickets to show him. When
they run their good ones, they do not
bet at the track, but in poolrooms Their
horses go up in the betting. They show
this to Mr.. Brady. As the unbacked
horse wins and cleans up for the book
makers. no kick comes from that quarter.
