Feature

retarv Boden arranged a good card
including a handicap, for the fiat run
ners and steeplechase handicap for
the 1eppers." The chief topic of con-
versation was the disqualification Of
Nibliclx on wednesday, and many sore
losers voiced their opinions. Four ia
xorites and two long shots came home
winners and the public had the best OF
the argument with the boolies.
That always popular sport, steeple-
chasing, opened up the days sport
when FIVE good timber toppers faced
the starter, with Decimo, favorite,
n1aved from 7 to to to 5. Brennus
closed at to 1 and Indian II was 10 10
1. Thaddeus and Vincedo both closer
at 4 to 1. Brennus went to the front
right after the start and was never
headed, to win easily In one second
slower time than the track record Dc
elmo and Vincedo tired badly over me
last jump and Indian II hnished l reso-
lutely and got the place from Decino.
The latter. Thaddeus and Vincedo were
paIpably short. 1t was grand race, as
not one horse faltered or made mis-
take over any of the jumps.
The second race was grand betting
race, and Fustian, Money Muss ana
Mintia closed about equal choices at 212
to 1 and 10 to 5. Nuns Yelling was 10
to l. Fustian was away flying and
made every post winning one. Money
Muss. away very badly, ran all around
his field, then got second money cas-
ilv. With an even break would have
given the winner strong argument
Nuns Yelling caught Mintia tiring next
to the rail and got up In time to be
thind. Elfin King was badly messed
about in the stretch and should have
been third.
Freesias at z to in the betting came
to life in the third race, and after Ca
pable. which was played from so to
30 to 1. Col. Brontson, backed from
10 to to /, got through, cutting out
the pace. Freesias came on and won
handily from Capable. Jack Little was
third, but for interference by Hi Caul
Cap may have been second. Jack
Adams stopped the final sixteenth, af-
ter being close to the pair all the way.
Mcdaniel was fined $3.50 by the judges
for his foul riding on Niblick Wednes-
day and for fouling Jack Little when
he rode Hi Caul Cap yesterday.
The fourth race kept the public
guessing as Secretary Boden arranged
the weights nicely and the finish was
close. w. H. Carey closed at II to o,
Tartan stayed steady at 21s to l and
3 to 1, and the Bedwell entry closed at
b 10 l.. IdTIdll Ildut dll Tic PeASO anu
when j. C. Clem caught up to him at
the head of the stretch he shook him
off and had enough left to stand off
w, H Carey's determined challenge.
Los Angeleno, outrun early, finished
like shot and got third money. j. G.
Glen quit badly and Ormonde's Right
hung the final sixteenth.
Turnaway, backed from even money
to to 5, had an easy time winning the
fifth race. Kunz got her away well
and she won easily. Connie M out
gained Talien, which was backed from
20 to to 1 for the place money. Vivian
M, outrun early, finished fast and
would have been third in a few more
strides. Billowy is a grand looking colt
and ran green. Watch this one for
early action.
The Roustabout made his field look
cheap in the sixth race. After Susan
nah made the pace for half he came
on and won easily Winsome Ways in
long stretch drive saved the place
from Search Me. The latter was away
badly and would have been second with
earlier racing luck. Bauble could never
get near the leaders. Chancellor Wal
worth quit after going good half.
Jockeys Boland and Radtke were
each fined $25 by the starter for bad
behavior at the post in the second
race
Today's Selections
There is no fixture on the card for
this afternoon, but six we'll balanced
races are UP for decision.
The first race should go to Bribery
She is at her best right now and will
be hard nut to crack today. Madden
looks easily second best and should
have no trouble to beat out TaXer for
the place honors. Red Garter will go
we'll with 1O2 pounds on his back and
has chance to be in the money.
The second race is a very open af-
fair, as a number of them figure so
close that it is hard to separate them.
Lucrece is about due to earn brackets
again and as she is fit and ready will
take lot of beating. Meddling Daisy
with good ride, should about be Sec
ond. Rama has a look in and will be
close up when the numbers are hung
out. Netting and Sun Mark will be
dangerous factors all the way.
Taylor George was all but left in his
last race and should redeem himself by
winning today. The Major will be the
one he will have to beat and he should
do It easily. Otto Price and Zelina
should fight it out for the short end
of the purse.
Mountebank and Kinsman may fin
ish one, two N the fourth race, as
they figure away above the others.
Prince Ching should go well and will
be hard to keep out of the money. Sa-
lima and Elmdale have good outside
chances
George e. Miner. Foncasta and
Josie's Jewel figure to nave the fifth
race between themselves and it would
be no surprise to see them finish in the
order named. Cotillion and stoessel
only have outside chances to be in the
money.
An ordinary lot are carded to start
in the sixth race Illusion is the one
that the winner will have to beat, as
he is at his best right now and likes
the distance. Lady Kitty will have
Talbert in the saddle and should be
second Ed Tracy may be third. Blue
Bottle and Pepper and Salt should fin
ish bang up for the short end OF the
purse.
