By j. r. Jeffery

The racing at Emeryyille yesterday
was without special feature, but was in
the main satisfactory, form being fairly
well observed. Favorites captured
half the card and the layers of odds
had an Improbable day for a change.
Jockey Kirschbaum was again to the
front with two winning mounts, one
being at long price.

show OF her field in the 2 year old
race and won with lengths to spare

Jockey Fischer's first winning mount in
many day. Snapdragon, the second
choice. closed stoutly and easily placed.
Forest Rose, a St Avonicus-Rose of
Magenta filly, carrying the colors of
Csine & Co. and quoted at to i in the
betting. made an suspicious debut by
nosing out Saucy NJ for third money.
The first and second choices. The Sui
ton and Eckersau. ran one, two in the
second race. a six furlong sprint
Smithy Kane cut out the early pace,
but stopped after going half a mile.
The Sutton then took the lead and won
handily enough, with Eckersall second
and DR.. RoweH third.
Reggie Davis messed it up with The
Captain. favorite in the third, and the
result was that Desmages, a to L

outside and he was running over the
leaders at the end but had to be con-
tent with second money. Jockey Nc

In the fifth the talent found difficulty
in deciding between Al Lindley and
Combury. who opened equal choices in
the books. The early play went in on
Combury and had the effect of making
him favorite. but AL Lindley came in
for heavy support toward post time and
there was little difference in the odds
laid against the two when the bugle
sounded. Combury had more early speed,

The closing race of the day proved
little more than a galiop for Fred

went to the front and cantered to the
wire with several lengths to spare
This horse is now showing the best
