AT THE RACE TRACK
With JOE KELLY

Bowie officials aren't feeling
too blue despite the fact that
Nashua and Swaps passed up
their 100000 Campbell Memo
rial Handicap Saturday. For the
field which will go to the post
this week end with the likes of
Sailor. Fisherman. Find, Jet
Action and Joe Jones may not be
assembled on any one race track
the rest of this year.
Social Outcast also was sched-
uled to start, but was withdrawn
today due to a slight injury suf-
fered in training.
After the New York season
gets rolling. the Chicago circuit
"Opens and Hollywood Park I'M
winds its stakes program. BY
that time the handicap ranks
will be spread extremely thin.
If any track comes up with a
field that compares with the
lineup for Bowie's Campbell, it
will consider itself lucky.
\
It's becoming increasingly ap-
parent that the race tracks
aren't doing the game any good
with the rash of 100000 races
which have blossomed during the
last few seasons to lure the out
standing handicap horses.
Fifteen or 20 years ago there
were just a few established turf
classics and all of the racing
stars made their appearance be-
cause there was no other spot
to run for a crack at the FIVE
figured purses. The 100000
spectacleS were still in the dream
stage of track publicity men.
Now an owner fortunate
enough to come up with a horse
which can run a little faster
than a high-class platter, and
there are not as many as you
might think, can shop around
among the lush stakes offerings
as the tracks try to Guido them
selves with eye-opening purses.
