Loss Of Race Starts
Investigation

The first glaring form reversal OF
the present racing season at Emery
vile came. with the running of the
opening event yesterday, in which Fire
ball. the even money favorite, ran a
disgracefully bad race. Fireball had
been running SO well with inferior
boys UP that he looked TO have the race
at his mercy with such crack rider
as Jockey Shilling for his pilot, and
there was general CONSERVATION and
much pointed comment among form
players when the horse wound up
among the also rams.
BADLY BEATEN
III. G.. -Bedwell, owner Of Fireball is
booked for session with. the New
California jockey club stewards tomor-
row in connection with his horses dis

he VIII have an awkward time furnish
ing the officials with a satisfactory eX-
PLANTATION of FirebaH's failure to- show
his customary speed. The stewards
have been put in possession of infor-
mat tion concerning certain angles of
the netting against, Fireball and Will
Investigate that phase of the case very
carefully. The manner in. which Bed
well ran some of his horses at Emery
vile last season aroused much criticism
among local race patrons and gave the
racing officials considerable trouble.

MOST VALUABLE STAKE
Burns Handicap to Be Big Event
of 1909 Racing Season

The Burns handicap, which will be
decided at Emeryyille January 30 next.
will this season be not only the most
important stake of the California turf,
as it has been in the past. but the most
valuable fixture of the American turf
for 1909 as we'll.
From its institution the Burns has
been the most important race annually
run in California. When it was found
ed the Brooklyn and Suburban handi-
caps We're each of the guaranteed value
of $4,000, SO the Burns was made of
the same value and remained a $4,000
stake, with a net value to the winner
of $6.850, until the present time But
in preparing it's stake list for the meet
ing of 190S-9 the California jockey
club changed the Burns from a $4,000
guaranteed stake to one with $4,000
added. and by this simple expedient so
increased its value that when it again
comes up for decision it is quite prob
able that the winners portion will be
fully SIS 900 This makes it, as matters
are now. the most important handica D
of the American turf for 1909 There
will be no Brighton Beach handicap
next year. and even If the Brooklyn and
Suburban handicaps are run it is quite
certain that they will be at such re-
duced values as to make them much
inferior to the Burns in that respect
