tons Of the Talent in
Their Events
BY JAY D.yIDsON

Popular choices more than held their
own with the long-shot winners yester-
day at Santa Anita and everybody was
happy after the last race was run.
Entire Nous, once a high class sprinter
but more recently showing poor form,
won the opening event in a hard drive
with Lady Irna, the speediest trick
shown hereabouts this season. Lady
probably would have won had the
distance been sixteenth shorter, but
at seven furlongs she found the dis
lance entirely too extended. At that.
she hung on gamely and was beaten
only in the final jump by the good
thing. Only a few days ago she set a
new world record for five and a half
furlongs, and on this showing was
heavily played to beat good sprinters
over the longer route. She set a dizzy
pace for six furlongs and then began
to tire, but it was all that Entire Nous
could do to beat her for first money at
the wire. Grande Dame, from the ST.
James stable, showed.
Lee Rose, which was figured as the
the market at an exceedingly short
price, and under a plunge by the big
bettors his price receded to about the
shortest odds laid this season. He fully
justified these odds by winning in a
gallop from Lawton Virgins and En-
peror William, after a hard struggle
for half a mile
Hasty Agnes, which has been running
right up amongst the first three all
season, and in better company than
that which she faced yesterday, had no
trouble in defeating Norbitt and Husky
at mile in 1:38. Hasty was away
nicely and showed too much foot for
the others, never being in trouble at
any stage of the game.
1t was no trouble to Golly Ding to
win the fourth race at seven furlongs.
Golly found the company dead easy
and distance was no drawback, so she
simply came along when asked to run
and won without much of an effort and
in good time. Neva Lee seemed to
have a chance in the last sixteenth, but
it was a dying effort and she faded
away to third place at the wire Ethel
Day getting the place under a vigorous
finish.
King Of the Mist found too much
speed opposed to him in the fifth race
and could not win from the improved
Joe Coyne. Miller took Joe out in
in that position all the way to the wire.
King tried to get up three different
times, but just when about ready to
take the lead he would falter and drop
back. Joe held on gamely and won
from King, which beat Netting easily
for the place.
Lord Of the Forest was well played
to win the last race and rewarded his
hackers literally. He got up in the
finals tn outnOse San Nicholas at the
wire in a desperate drive. Free Knight
the Bear came with a belated rush and
got the show money from Old Settler.
