FSSARE N FRONT INDAY'S FEATURE Heavily Backed Horse Hard Pressed to Score in Capitol Handicap. B crowd of the race season, which opened here last Tuesday, turned out for today’s sport. It was a rather ordinary program, featured by the Capitol Handicap, a dash of 7 furlongs, for 3-year-olds, and ‘which was won by the Jacques stable’s Essare. The racing was good, however, and OWIE, Md., April 6.—Some 20,000 race fans, by far the largest Monday ’s 1—Meridianese, Willow, Mild. 4—Pagan 7—Tazewell, Resourceful BEST BET—LE BEY. MERIDIANESE, bred to run in mud, showed she could do so in her one start. Comes back here in another claiming event, and only needs to run her race to graduate in the opener. WILLOW showed up well in her first outing at Tia Juana. Might have fa- vored the mud on that occasion. In good shape and will give a good ac- count of herself here. MILD ran a splendid race in her last start at Jef- ferson. Raced as if she would appre- clate the longer route here. Might overtake the top two near the end. those who backed the favorites fared ‘well as the choices were stepping down in front throughout the card. Essare was heavily backed to win the Capitol, but his victory wasn't an easy one by any means. In fact, he just lasted to win by the scantest of mar- gins from W. F. Polson's Buddy Basil and right on the saddle cloth of the first two was the Audley farm’'s Ma- tin’s Minister, which took third money. Houssain, War Hawk, Equation, Leta- lone and Minotaur were the also rans. > When the break came Equation as- ‘sumed a commanding lead, but Barnes kept Essare well off the pace, although in second position, until nearing the stretch, where he disposed of the pace- maker. At this point, however, Buddy Basil had moved up and began chal- lenging Essare. The latter was game and hung on tenaciously through the last sixteenth of a mile. Matin's Minis- ter was easily best of the others. Secondary feature of the card was the third number, a sprint of 6 fur- Jongs, which brought out a field of six fairly good ones. Poly, racing in the colors of Mrs, J. W. Bean, was the winner, but_changed hands after the Tace as I. B. Brandfield claimed him for $6,000. Like Essare, Poly was extended to the limit. He led most of the way, but Roodles was pressing him at the finish. Golden Mac beat tiring horses for third money. TRIALS FOR PUPPIES CARDED WEDNESDAY FAIRFAX, Va. April 6 (Special) — | The Northern Virginia Amateur Field | Trial Association will hold its first an-| nual members’ Spring puppy trial Wed- nesday on the Stone Beach course 2t Centerville. Drawings will be made on the grounds | at 8 am. preceding the trials. There | will be no post entry fees. 1 Judges will be Lee Dale of Vienna and Ernest Meade of Richmond. Pirst, s2cond and third prizes will be awarded. Lunch will be served on the grounds. Virginia sportsmen are also planning to enter their puppies in the eighth annual puppy trials of the National | Capital Trial Club, which will be held ' w on Thursday at the Montgomery Cflur\» try Club. This is for puppies whelped | on or after January 1, 1928, owned and | handled by members only. First, second and third prizes will be awarded and a leg on the Kidwell Club. | Judges will be Ernest C. Mead and | W. Dorsey Cooke of Potomac Beach, | | An honesi KENTUCKY COLDNE’L is the clock- ers' good thing in the second. Won a couple of races at Miami and comes here dead fit. Turned in several trials that stamp him as a mighty keen ani- mal. Looks as though he might do it. He trimmed RENDEZVOUS last time they met, but the latter won two races since. If the latter starts, is likely to be the most dangerous of the oppo- sition. FORTUNATE MANN did well enough at Miami and Keeney to get a chance here. Whipped fair ones last time out. Going to try to make SUN DE MEUR stand up for us in the third. The geld- ing has fooled us many times, but after seeing him turn in another good race last time, he has to get the call. Looks best. DONN BON nearly won a heat here last Fall. Was in with fair young- sters then. Since coming back he has been showing real speed to the clockers and will no doubt carry the bulk of their support. If as good as they say | he is, should be the one to beat. PANAMA disappointed last time. Pre- vious races give her a chance with these. May do better this time, PAGAN LADDIE gave us a good per- formance behind Essare opening day, outrunning as good a one as Stand By. mgster and a fast one. Should be capabis of holding the Ran- cocas pair safe in the fourth. DONNAY appears best of this pair. Has some | nifty trials to his credit, and raced with classy ones last year.

At the weights he shoum have little difficulty in repeat- ing in the fifth. Was the easiest kind of winner last time over as good as these. Only, needs to run back to that race.

ILmle shift in weight, and see no reason that last decision. speed last_time, but was not quite good | enough. Likes the mud, and off of that good race must be given the call over the fast-working INTREPID in the sixth. | The latter has had a race that should serve as a conditioner, and if he takes up a more experienced rider Monday Mll prove the most formidable of the balance of the field. Nice sort here last Fall. ' MARGATE was pressing the top one closely the other day. Any im- provement over that race could upset our figures. Have to give her a chance with this field. i TAZEWELL, another that favors| Bowie going, appears best af the many contenders in the last. A very open race. The top one could do it if he raced back to those two good wins here last Spring. RESOURCEFUL comes up from the South in good condition. Raced consistently down there with this sort and appears all over the one to fear. LOWER FIVE, one of the hottest tips in some time on Friday, failed to get any of the money. Changed hands after the race, through the claimiing | box. Is ready for his best, and could | be dangerous here if he races back to some efforts.

It was the first time the Kentucky derby winner ever had been called upon to run on turf or on a Downhill course. Square Rock, an outsider at 100 to 6, owned by Z. G.

April 6-Th! ancient battle between the | and West will be renewed “:!n | at Churchill Downs here Mav 18, in the fifty-fifth running of the Kentucky Derby. For years, the turf classic has re- solved itself into & battle of sections, and from early appearance, this sea- son will be no exception. Perhaps the West this year has a shade the advantage in the early dope, with Blue Larkspur and Clyde Van Dusen. Blue Larkspur_is a product of Col. E. R. Bradley's Idle Hour farm here in Kentucky, and Clyde Van Dusen was foaled in the same neigh- borhood. However, the East may dispute the West's claim to Clyde Van Dusen, as | he is owned by Herbert P. Gardner of AAmsurdnm. N. Y. Gardner’s stable, | however, does all its racing in the West Local horsemen are inclined to regard Twink as the main hope of the East in this battle of sections. This imported colt is from the stable of Mrs. L. G. Kaufmann of New York and is reported to be training in fine style. Last year Twink started 10 times and won $41.650, capturing six firsts and one third. His victories included the Albany handicap at Saratoga, the Grand Union Hotel Stakes at the same course, the Spalding Lowe Jenkins handicap at Laurel and the Walden handicap-at Pimlico. | Twink's leading rival on the Mary- | land tracks, Dr. Preeland, also is coming |in for consideration. This chestnut colt, owned by Walter J. Salmon, is a Kentucky-bred son of Light Brigade { and Toddle, and he all but ran down | High Strung in the Pimlico futurity. He won the whirl stakes at Empire City | N. J., will bring the pick of the Rumson | and the Nursery Handicap at Belmont Park, and was second in the Grand ‘ Union Hotel Stakes.
