in the booBies' strong boxes when he
won the third race at IS.

the purse by seven lengths.
Ebony Comes to Life
William Walker finally won race
with his black beauty, Ebony. which is
known as the hard luck horse of Ascot
Ebony pulled up bleeding a couple of
times last week while working out and
this caused the price against his
chances to soar until the play COM

The Huguenot was away to a flying
start and held this lead to the back
stretch, where Ebony, which was al

Babes First to Post
Three purse races and as many SELL
ing affairs make up the card for today,
and large fields will be the rule.
The babes have inherited the first
race on the card as an heirloom and
will open the ball with one of their
notable four-furlong dashes.
All are maidens and there is but
slight form calculations as to the prob
abilities, but on past performances the
order of finish should be Griffin entry,
Josie 6, Early Flower.
Several speedy ones of slight value
viii contest for the purse in the second
race.
Jennie F may be a surprise and on
her past performances has a chance to
win from w. P. Palmer. another speed
merchant from St. Louis.
These two should furnish the fun all
the way and the duel through the
stretch may be as exciting as, if real
race horses were doing the stunt.
Ell Donoso may break up calculations,
however as he has shown a disposition
to run in front for three-quarters and
then stop. If he can stay in front
for that distance today it will be
matter of supreme Indifference to his
hackers how soon thereafter he stops.
Huachuca and The Major are the
outsiders that seem to have a chance
at performing the probable upset that
is to be expected in races of this kind.
However, the end may be Jennie F,
w. p. Palmer FL Donoso.
