ONLY II NAMED TO START

New York, June 2O.-With only eleven horses named to start, the twenty-third Suburban handicap of $2O,OO0 will be run at Sheepshead Bay tomorrow. The su ouroan presents striking evidence of the disappointments that have attended the present racing season. Flfty-three of the best horses In training, with the ill-stared Sysonby at the head of the list were en- tered in this years ribbon event at Sheepshead. That but eleven horses arc named as contestants tonight before tba race and that all but two or three of those horses should have been contesting only for the smaller handicap purses all season with indifferent success. would seem to promise but an ordinary contest tomorrow
 The Brooklyn handicap winner, Tokalon. is named to go, however, as well as Dan delion, the clever Hitchcock 4-year-old. who ran second in the Brooklyn Dande- lion has had good rest since that time in preparation for the suburban and to- night is the popular choice for that event. His chances are strengthened by the fact that the meeting very likely will open with a fast track
 The second choice play tonight is divid- ed between Cairngarm and Go Between, the latter's clever win under adverse circumstances at Gravesend Tuesday gaining him many supporters. Cairngorm will share with Tokalon the second high est weight in the field. 11s pounds. The handicapper had assigned 1d pounds to Sysonby 125 to Ort Wells, Oiseau and Stalwart, 123 to Artful and similar im- posts to this class of horses which will be conspicuous tomorrow by their ab- sence.
 Proper. the Jennings candidate, and possessing about as much class as any horse in the field, will go to the post with whatever honor may attach to the top weight in this years Suburban. His im- post is 122 pounds. Despite this his chances will be fancied by many. Oxford, Colonial Girl and Dolly Spanker are the other entries which will be supported. Cederstrome Oliver Cromwell and As tronomer are the light weights. and com plete the field. Traditions disappointing showing at Gravesend last Saturday has resulted in her withdrawal from the Su- burban although she is named to go in the six furong sprint which is second on to- morrows card.
