Bowie officials today were
looking forward to launching
their first full week Of racing
without an interruption since
the meeting opened q month
ago.
Although badly battered. the
session Is not completely
wrecked yet. Continued good
weather could work wonders for
the weak betting average. es.
|pecially this week with the
Washington'S Birthday holiday
Wednesday expected to draw 4
large crowd. o..
Bowie topped Hialeah at the,
gate on the same date last year
when 22.150 fans bet $1,s19,e95.
With just 10 days Of the
scheduled 4S completed, Bowie's
betting average is q lowly $751;
teo. But the 81 million average
mark, on which the tracks
purse budget Is based, is still
within reach.
Although skies were clear to-
day. last Saturdays fog was
still being talked about by the
jockeys who rode all nine races
and fans who CROPPED their way
to the track and home sgain.
Despite the adverse conditions
and some Of the eeriest racing
ever staged in Maryland, a
crowd Of 16.159 was on hand,
the largest Of the meeting and
betting reached $1,319,212, also
q new high for the session.
Mystic II, the French bred
horse who races for C. Mahlon
Kline, made his first start of
1861 today in q prep for Satur-
days $40. .000-added Southern
Maryland Handicap, which he
won last year.
A total Of 18 horses are eli.
gible for the 7-furlong South
ern Maryland, but the early
favorite Is the entry Of Mystic
II and Moon Shot. both trained
by Morris Dixon.
Two other eligibles for the
Southern Maryland - Poppy

There could be a shift in
odds on the Dixon-trained en-
try. however, should April

renzo, be shipped from Florida
for the Southern Maryland.
April Skies won four handicap
