Tramotor, a three-year-old from the
Blute stable, had the hackers OF Misty's
Pride, favorite>for the last event on the
card at Oakland yesterday, standing on
tiptoes for the fractional part of sec
ond. The track was exceedingly slow
and heavy and nine out of ten specta-
tors seemed, to have a hunch that the
Oregon mare would meet defeat. She
escaped, but 1t was a very close call.

had his mount out in front soon after
the start. In the stretch McBr1de on
Tramotor moved up from third place,
challenging the leader. The daughter
of Handsome and Misty Morn showed
she was made of the right material by
standing off the clever .threeyear-old,
and in a long hard drive earned the
verdict by a short neck. Sea Voyage
ran third.
Public choices held their own, cap

the part of Bonner contributed largely
to the win of the opening event by The
Hawaiian. The books laid to about

stretch, but the filly stood q hard drive,
even though beaten nearly half a dozen
lengths. My Order lost the show to San
Jose.
A barrel of coin was burned up over
the poor showing made by Sir Preston,
even money favorite for the five-fur-
long dash. The paddock contingent

ran unplaced. Finishing strong on the
outside through the stretch, Best Man,

Tony Barrett's old campaigner Bar
9Srack made a show of his company in
the mile and fifty yard selling fixture.
