They will contest in three races—the first held in this eity in more than ten years. King Horse, for a decade an outcast| from the scene of many former triumphs, | while false pretenders ruled, will return 1o the throne today while thousands cheer him from the grandstand at East Omaha. When 2 o'clock comes today a gong will summon the race horses to the track. named ‘Waves of applause will sweep the grand- stand. The horses will score. The start- ing judge will give them the word, Go!” Men and horses well know the meaning of the word. It signifies two minutes and a quarter of the most ex- treme effort—horses and men straining every merve to the end of finishing the | mile first, yet retaining control of nerves and brain—one of the oldest of sports, | yet one which for true sportsmanship has never been surpassed. Two-Fifteen Trot Today. { The 2:15 trot, the feature event of to- day's card, may prove the closest race of the entire meeting. The outstanding fea~ ture of this contest prior to its beginning 1s the fact that the wise ones find it im- possible to agree in picking a horse which “has a mortgage’” on it, or to name two horses, one of which is certain to win.
