The list was completed half an hour before closing time when names | of all expected entries were filed with the racing secretary. The only surprise among the field of thirteen colts and five geldings was the entry of Comanche Leak, owned by Mrs. Floyd West of Dallas, | Texas. The Texas chestnut gelding | easily won a 6.1 furlong dash yes- terday over much the same track that existed today. Heading the entry list of favorites is Stir Up, who improves in mud, | from Mrs. Payne Whitney's Gr(‘r’n—“ tree Stable; M. B.
