New York. June I9.-Seventeen horses
have been named to start in the S2OCOl
Suburban Handicap, one mile and quar-
ter. TO be run over the Sheepshead Bay
track tomorrow afternoon.
If the track is fast, a sensational race
will probably result, as the entry list in
dicates a struggle that may surpass all
previous events Of this kind
Experts who have studied the com
plexion Of the race with extreme care
were inclined TO the belief to-day that
one Of the three-year-olds would be re
turned the winner.
In all probability Electioneer, by Voter
VIII rule the favorite. He has started
but once this season, but on that occa-
sion he forced Peter Pan TO drive to
beat him in the Standard Stakes. at a
mile and quarter, in 2.05 3-5. In that
race Electicaeer was rather poorly ridden
by KOerner. but to-day he will be handled
by the veteran George Mountain. as Mr..
Belmont's Blandy viii not start, from all
accounts
Electioneer needs a strong rider, one
who can make him do his best in the
last stages Of the race, and Mountain
seems to be the one 10 I'LL the bill
