IMMIGRANT HORSE
LIKED IN BIG RACE

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 4.--Anpther young
immigrant from Europe, landing IN
this country with nothing but skill
and strength, has risen to fame In
competition with the best in America.
The immigrant is Cotlogomor, the
French horse which is one of the most
favored candidates to win the $4,000
Coffroth Handicap at Tia Juana
March 10.
Cotlogomor tried for a year to learn
the knack Of rounding the turns on
American tracks before he started TO
win. All his racing In his native
France was on straightaway courses.
and there he won but two races, one
in 1928 as a 2.year-old and another the
next year. He started in 10 races in
this country last year, and his best
was third in of the 10 and outside
the money nine times.
Ten days ago he surprised the rae
ing followers by winning the $4,000
New Orleans Handicap, and the odds
Of $50 to / against him in the rich
Coffroth race shortened Immediately.
Twelve to fifteen Of the SO entries
are expected to start, including Car
laris, which won the race last year
but was failure the rest Of the
season.
The French horse was so lightly re-
garded by the handicappers that he
was assigned a burden OF only 100
| pounds In the Coffroth Handicap, in
which he likely will face Carla11s.

rapidly rounding into form at
their training quarters in Fort
