Many Entries for Brooklyn and
Gomez Island Jockeg Clubs.

The stakes for the Brooklyn and Coney Island
Jockey clubs, which closed on January 2, and
which will be decided at the spring meetings at
Gravesenda nd Sheepshead Bay have been tab
ulated and show healthy increase in the num-
Der of entries over last year. This is one more
indication Of the growing popularity of racing
in this state.
For tho eighteen fixtures of the Brooklyn
Jockey Club 1,2S6 entries have been made as
against ,220 in 1906. The total for this year,
however includes forty-seven nominations for
the Greenfield Steeplechase new stake which
T. j. Dwyer has offered to encourage cross
country racing The biggest increase is in the
Brooklyn Handicap, for which seventy-five en-
tries have been made this year. as against fifty
seven year ago. The steeplechases show a
falling off, but the entries are of a kind to
insure good sport over the jumps. A compara-
tive table Of the entries for last year and this
year follows:
