Says Trivia in the grandstanL: Say,
III tell YOU lust which horse to play,
That brown one with the pretty head,
He's so we'll groomed and so well fed
Besides, his Jockey looks so good.
I'm sure he'd win out II he could,
His eyes are such a lovely blue;
Yes. and ] like his colors, too
II don't half like that yellow horse
Such a poor color: though, Of course,

And his head is short you see
How very slim his chance must be.
My jockey with the eyes of blue
Looks good to me. please back him, do.
I'm all excited. it's SO sweet
To be here for the first spring meet,
Don't look surprised, but let me say
I'm seeing my first race to-day
know I've got a lot to learn.
But just the same hope 10 earn
a pot Of money-yes, doA't YOU?
And learn about the racing, too?
Il really wish could afford
TO play my horse across the board;
Eut | suppose it costs a heap
I'm so Keyed up that | cant keep
Quiet until they all begin.
What's that? You think your horse will
win
on three legs? Oh, how cruel DO
Let him run with his fourth leg, too .
