Gray GeIdinE or Bay Mare Should
Win Fcnture Mt Enir GrnundS

Win Feature ut Fair Grounds.
Bessie Mccarthy worked a mile on Sun
day in ley handily and we'll. This IS
much faster than she ran her mile be-
hind F1intlock the other day. Bessie IS
said TO have lost her form. Her hide IS
splotched. probably because the man who
Il may not turn out thus, but Bessie can
beat this kind on her race with Grand
opera IN Chicago. Hence those who went
oToke on her last time might take little
nibole to-day. hoping TO get back part OF
what they lost
TABY TOSA'S CHANCE.
II Bessie cannot win II. Taby Tosa
should. The gray hit his quarter the
other day and nipped quite a chunk out Of
II. but Dan Kelly always has them fit
The weight is right. Taby is just such 4
horse as F'lintlOck. and the chestnut can
not give him any weight Should Flint
lock win with liz up, what will Air. Hop
per De putting on him ut LItOnia next
week? hingstelle Is good now and has a
chance SO has CroiN dor. Scout can
beat tlintlOck that way riEs,ed. In ain
Taby Tosa and Bessie seem TO be the
contenders, but KinEstelle and Croix cor
are not l5-to-l shots kingstelle is good
now and can run in 1:iS that way Elgged.
She ran in 1:iSlS with 100 uD. 40 look out.
PETTIJoHN IN a GALLOP.
The fifth race should go to PettiJohn. II
he runs TO his form # is simple canter.
Still, It should be his time to lose. In this
case Ada y. will be the winner. She can
not miss second place II they are trying
with her. JigEer, who is hard TO guess,
should be third. He can beat the others
sure.
JIM-A-LONG GOOD THING.
Jim-a-long will DO the good thing in the
first race. he is a cow-necked, rabbit
hearted ''pelter." who has enough speed 10
make persons bet on him. Tom Collins
Will take IL out OF him in the first half.
Then John ii and Mynheer will breeze
over him John II Is hard 10 guess but
he took ten pounds from John YsrkeS
and all the worst Of the luck. came from
behind and trimmed Ierkes In liza. John
Serkes, with Us, would be a nice I-tO-I6
strobe smartly the other night He has
been scratched out twice and this IS about
his spot: He IS a nice kind OF a horse,
man would hate 10 SEE him claimed away
cheap. Zirl is in here. and Mr.. Daniels
knows neither friend nor foe.
SECOND RACE is HARD.
Tower. Lucian. BandiIlo. Gold Spot.
Kitty Harlan, Port Warden. Matinee Girl
and Thank Haven all have chances IN
the second race. Calvit gave Haven a
very easy ride last time, the same kind
OF effort as he gave Lady Free knight
on triday- Thank Haven Is n good fly
and may wake up, as Lady Free knight
did She certainty never tried a lick iast
time out Kitty Harlan ran one very
good one behind Debbie May, than a had
one. She is fast and game. Matinee Girl
has been a good thing NAM times and
invariably gets of badly. Sill, the good
Mr.. Watkins is lying back TO nav that
ring before the week IS out This may
be the spot Gold Spot woke up with an
Improved one last trip. all OF a sudden,
and may do better to-day.
Iucian was a good colt in Chicago, but
lacks speed Bandillo Will be there
throughout Tower is a slow beginner
but ran many good game races in the
East behind good colts With n clear field
Tower viii be hard to trim here. Always
Faithful is slow 10 get going. but NAV
come along in the stretch Thank Haven
IS the best nlly. but her last race was a
fright Winning with her wiz be taking
long chance with the judges Port
Warden Is the one that should win, and he
probably viii do so.
oPTIAIo CAN SCARCE LOSE.
optimo looks best in the third race. He
is nice horse to be in cheap here. BIr.
Robinson has him good now, and would
