In fact. handicapper vosburg has been lenient with every one of the probable starters Rose Ben's burden of 135 pounds will not stop any of his marvellous speed over the sprint distance. Rose Ben has no preference in the matter of going. In the mud or in the dust he Is equally fancied by his supporters. Demund's weight, 1Os, ought not to stop good horse, and the Carter will be test of his ability.

The race as f. looks tonight had a decidedly open appearance.
