The San Francisco call., 1906-11-24
Notes of the Track

The race going public will be ac
corded an opportunity of seeing Sam
Hildreths grand mare Logistila per-
form again this afternoon, as she is
entered with other good ones in the
Artful handicap. the feature event of
todays card. Handicapped Egbert has
asked her to pick up four more pounds
than she carried to victory in such
sensational manner on Wednesday, her
impost for today being 120 pounds. The
distance is mile and 100 yards, which
is more to her liking than the mile, in
which she scored a nose victory over
Dusty Miller. AS upon the occasion of
her last start, she probably will have
TO beat one of Charlie Van Dusens
horses. Supreme Court whose Seattle
form was even better than Dusty Mil
lers. 1t is true that Supreme Court
ran a bad race in the Opening handi-
cap, but Van Dusen maintains that the
horse did not show his true form, and
he expects different result today. Lu-
bin. winner of the Thanksgiving and
Christmas handicaps last season, is
scheduled to make his initial appear
ance in the same race and may make
it interesting for the winner, although
his chances would be generally consid-
cred more promising if the distance
was a bit farther. Ramus ran very
creditable race his only out and is
looked upon by some as a contender.
Tom Roberts and Dolinda have not
shown anything that would warrant
the belief that either of them will cut
any figure in the running of the race.
gThe final race on the card for today
is another event that will be a hum
mer Such shifty sprinters as Ruby,
Platoon, Van Ness and Romano Will
try conclusions at six furlongs. If
Ruby runs to her Seattle form she may
win, but the others are likely to be
right there at the finish
1t looks as if Tavora, who Won her
last race with consummate ease, should
be fighting it out with I'm Joe at the
finish of the opening event. I'm Joe
had poor racing luck in the race which
Tavora won. and has a bunch of weight
off today. If he has good luck today
he may turn the tables on Tavora.
Ocean Shore defeated several of the
youngsters entered for the second race
on the card with great ease the other
day, and should repeat. The unknown
factor in the race is the Keene colt.
Clamor, a youngster that defeated in
ferior fields in the Middle West. Ben
volio should repeat in the third, and
Military Man should win race for
Garnet Ferguson by leading Jackfull
to the wire in the fifth.
