ana carries Sl250 added money with an
estimated value of $4,000.
Handicap Starters
Santon is allotted top weight, with
112 pounds, and will probably have
Jockey Swain up. Santon may be the
favorite for this event, despite his
weight, although there are plenty of
speed mavels and good handicap
horses in the race. Santon has been
working at a good clip, recently doing
a mile in 1:45, but he has not done any
thing since and a report that he pulled
up lame is vigorously denied by the
stable.
Hans Wagner will be as good as sec
ond choice if the spectators do not
rush him into favoritism. Hans will
like the going better than anything in
the race, and his stout heart and long
distance speeding abilities will serve
to keep him within conVersing distance
OF anything in the race.
Wagner will have Jockey Doyle up,
and will have in him pilot who un-
derstands the aged gelding and knows
how to get out the best that is in the
old campaigner.
j. L. Holland will have Memories in
the handicap and at the weights this
one cannot be denied consideration.
Memories is fast and light be a sur
prise party to the wise ones who will
go to other horses in the race. Mem
ories is by Sir Dixon and is enamored
of the exact going which will prevail
at Ascot this afternoon. AS a dark
horse" for the long end of the purse
this one looks the Lest by far
Billy divers Lord Badge has raced
against some good ones down east and
paid his board with the winnings. He
is to be respected in any company, but
is speculative consideration, as he is
thoroughly unreliable and will run lust
such a race as his erratic moods die
tate.
Ethylene has the foot of the field, but
is rank gutter Like all front run
ners, she has a burst of speed that
would make Scotty hunt for a cyclone
cellar but if anything in the race gets
within shouting distance of her she is
out of it.
Borghesi shares the lightweight hon
ors with Michael Burns. Borghesi
has worked like a morning glory re-
Gently and if he runs to his work, with
the light impost and Jockey Kunz up,
he has chance, but is not bulling the
market among the knowing ones yet.
Michael Byrnes was prepped in Chi
cago and has not started in the last
twelvemonth. He once was. but il is
not known whether he still is. Mike
may bt III anu Itduy ana caDaDl of
tearing off miles like a runaway chauf-
feur wagon, but he Is not soaring any
body until his resuscitation has been
established.
May Spring Surprise
Marshal Ney may furnish the sur
prise of the day after the winners
number Is hung up. This one is good
right now and has shown a banker
ing for this distance in races on the
Canadian circuit last summer, when he
annexed some choice offerings by the
jockey clubs in that country. He
seems to be outclassed to some extent
by the others, but he is a son OF DR..
Rice and is a good boy from a good
sire.
Orchan Is a rank in-and-outer and
his showing depends upon his temper.
II he runs kindly and exhibits any
desire for the glory of winning the
Jonathan Club handicap, 1t will not be
pecessary for him to carry any green
lights behind, as none of the others
will ever be close enough to see them
with field glass. However, his dis
position to take life easy at critical
stages makes him a poor proposition.
Sails Is trying to associate too well
here, and would be more profitably en-
gagged chewing oats in barn, unless
Blute wants TO give him an exercising.
He won't slice off any part of the
1928 money.
The Jonathan Club handicap should
