Los Angeles herald., 1905-12-10


candidate for the long end of the purse.
"Puddin' Mcdaniel had the mount
and took excellent care of the Wilson
gelding at all stages, h wing a double
desire in putting him first under the
wire, as it scored his third win of the
day.
Golden Green was the good thing and
tried real hard to NOW down the lead
of Old Mike in a fierce stretch run, but
to no avail, as Mike breezed without
urging and copped by four lengths.
Golden Green landed in second place
and Rostof showed. The latter was
sluggish In the early stages and made
his run too late, being bNtten by
Golden Green by three lengths.
Half of the entries in the opening
event scratched out of it and field
of seven went to the post. with Allen
con opening as favorite at l to and
going back to l to g.
Alencon was best of the bunch the
way the race was run, and had no diff
ficulty in getting home ahead of the
procession. Lucky Baldwin.s Reta-
dor, which was heavily played at 20s,
was the contender and Regal took
third place.
Regal should have been second had
not Waterbury gone to sleep and al
lowed Retador to slip by on the rail
at the finish and beat Regal to the
wire by scant margin of less than a
whisker.
Rubiana was practically left at the
pest owing to an accident. When the
barrier was sprung it caught in her
mouth and Sinnott was forced to pull
her up, throwing her out of the con-
test.
Ninnasquaw Breezes
Of hp ha r.
rier in the second event. Ninnasquaw
was so we'll thought of that she ruled
favorite at even money, with Lyman's
good filly Graceful as second choice
at to 5.
Ninnasquaw earned brackets by rea-
son of a judicious ride by "Puddin"
Mcdaniel, who held the speedy mare
in reserve until ready to send her
to the front and when called on, she
responded with her usual burst of
speed and ran away from the field.
Graceful raced gracefully for a mile
but dropped out when the pinch came
evidently being short of work and need
ing a race before she is ready.
McGrathiana Prince ran into the Sec
ond place because OF the strenuous eff
forts of Jockey w. Davis, who gave the
aged gelding a great larruping to get
him ahead of the tiring Wyetield
Hot was not as speedy yesterday
as on his previous out and was heart
broken by the form displayed by his
old-time rival. Ninnasquaw, quitting
early in the game and bringing up the
rear of the procession.
Good Luck won the final race of the
day from Mr.. Budd and Peeping Tom.
Good Luck was another prohibitive
favorite at to and ran as if trying
to justify the odds, winning by several
yards.
Mr.. Budd was the good thing at SOs,
and so strong was the play that he
closed at Is to l. He never had a
chance to catch the flying Good Luck,
but was strong enough at the finish to
stall off Peeping Toms closing rally
Just before the first race was run a

Jockey w. Buchanan sustained a
painful injury in the third race when
Capitanazo and Eugenia Burch bumped
| together at the start Buchanan was
bruised about the chest, but the injury
| is slight and more painful than serious.
Eugenia Burch was the center of at

| Favorites swept the card yesterday.
Borghesi at 3s was the longest priced
winner and he was favorite. A con-
servative estimate of the aggregate
losses of the books is $4,000 for the
day and Is the seventh losing day for
| the odds-layers. The books have not
had a winning day since Saturday one
week ago.

outclassed the field in which he was
