N +. CARMAN, the New York mil
X lionaire who has been a visitor at
AVs Ascot for the past two seasons,
and who raced his horses there when the
course south of town was the real thing
hereabouts, will be in Los Angeles this
morning to look over the new course at
Arcadia. Carman at present is racing
the largest string of horses whicn ever
appeared ON the coast under one owners
name, having fifty-two cracks now run
ming for purses at Emeryville.
With Carman will come his trainer.
James Blute, who is also a familiar
f ire to local racegoers Blute Is man
aging and directing the Carman string
at Emeryville, and in case it is split viii
probably come here with the pick of the
bunch.
Carman and Blute left San Francisco
on last nights Owl and unless the train
is wrecked or they both disappear VIII
be out at Arcadia this afternoon,s Inc
popular horseman and his equally we'll
liked trainer will spend much of the
winter here and Carmans string will
occupy a lot of stalls at Santa Anita.
In all probability Guy Burns, the find
of the year in the ranks of the jockeys,
will ride here If Carman likes the place.
The New Yorker cares more for Los
Angeles than he does for Frisco. and
i. the track suits he will send the pick
of his String and his crack jockey to
the local course.
]. B. Dunn will race a stable of twelve.
at Santa Anita park. Although only
four years in the racing business Dunn
has made a success of 1t and his colors,
purple and lavender, were carried to VIC
tory in many races at Ascot park last
season.
Dunn is an enthusiastic horseman and
although he does not wager much money
L. soho
boy when his colors are in the front at
the finish. Jockey w. Fischer does the
riding for Dunn and it is due to his
clever handling of the horses that Dunns s
name has always been near to the top
of the winning list of owners.
Among those that will sport his colors
and which are entered in the stakes for
which they are eligible are Bryan, Ora
torian, Gov. Orman, Eduardo, Miss
Martha Scotch Plume, Ruth W., Pa
triotic, Bal Reed, Anona, Chas Doherty
and Katie Rains.
George J. Long the owner of Bash
ford Manor in Kentucky, has fourteen
d quartero l at Ascot park In charge
of j.. S. Rothert.1eThey were all bred oS
Mr.. Long and are the get of Alvescot
and the ill-fated Falsetto, the sire Of
The Picket and Sir Huon.
The get of Falsetto are the last ones
of that noted stallion and If they per
form to their private trials will surely
n IKE good. Mr.. Rothert will look afte.
the mounts of David Boland, who rode
many winners at Ascot last season ana
held his own the past summer in the
middle west.
There is absolutely no truth in the
rumors that are afloat to the effect that
the admission at Santa Anita park will
be raised to $3.50 and that there will be
a day set aside each week when tho
ladies' will be admitted free. The admis-
sion will be just the same as it was at
Ascot park, 81, and there will be no day
when the ladies will get in gratis.
Monday will be busy day at Ascot
and Santa Anita parks, as the owners
will move their charges to new quarters.
Horsemep are complaining about the lack
of cars and many will walk their horses
over to the new track and ship their
paraphernalia. Beginning Tuesday there
will be two trains a day, 7:45 a. M. and
1:3O p. m. y
II. w. Gabriel got in yesterday morn
ing with his two clever performers,
Toupee and Invictus. Besides these two
he has six yearlings and two-year-old
direct from the farm.
]. R. Walker is handling for ]. j.
Walsh a string of twenty, among which
are Sir Edward, Gabrielle, Dredger,
Marster and John Kelly The others are
yearlings that would be a pride to any
stable as they are an exceptionally good
looking lot and Walker, who developed
and trained Magazine, Martha Jane nd
the balance of the lot which Walsh sold
to r. F. Carman last year for $25,VO0,
thinks he has better bunch quartered
in his barn this year.
1t was on his advice that Walsh bought
them at the yearling sales. Walker has
earned the honor of saddling six Kings
Plate winners and for ten years trained
for ]. e. Seagram, the we'll known Ca
madam turfman. Walkers brother trains
for Weinberg Brothers in Germany and
the horses in his charge have been the
biggest money winners in that country.
