Ridden by Redfern. Gets | Upin Time to Beat Durbar | a Neck in the Second Race | e SN e BT LOS ANGELES, March 3.—Perfect | weather, a crowd of 4000, it being ladies’ ! day, and a dozen books to handle the | money of the betting public epitomizes | the conditions at Ascot Park to-day. It | | does not tell what the public did to the | layers of odds. Five favorites and a to 5 second choice were first to the wire, and there were long lines behind the books after each race. It was one of | the most successful days of the meet- ing for those who play according to form. There were a number of nose finishes, the most sensational of which was in | the fourth race, for the Oxnard handi- ‘cap, for three-year-olds and upward, at one mile. Waswift was a firm favorite, | opening at 7 to 10 and going to the post jat1to2 | his chances, notwithstanding he carried | 124 pounds. Columbia Girl forced him | to stretch his neck all the way down | the last quarter, and 1:39% was hung up when Waswift poked his nose in front of the wire. Warte Nicht, upon whose chances much money was laid, was a poor third. Revolt started the ball rolling for the favorites in the first race, winning from Magic Flute by a nose, with Maude Brown third. The race was made up of fourteen ordinary platers. Iras, ridden by Redfern, stood a | bruising finish in the second and got up in time to beat Durbar a neck in the mile and an eighth selling race.” Turtle was third. The winner was 9 to 10 in the betting. A goodly amount of money went in on Dupont, but he failed to show any speed at any stage of the race. Katherine Ennis, at 9 to 5, took the third etent by half a dozen lengths. Chief Aloha was second and Mac Fleck- noe third. Eldred was made favorite at 8 to 5, but ran a poor race. | Nanon was backed at 4 to 5 to win | the fifth number, and came home a length ahead of Dolly Weithoff, with the heavily backed second choice, Walt- er, third. J. V. Kirby was plunged on to win the last race, at six furlongs, and his | price went down from 4 to 5 to 3 to 5 under the attacks of the talent. Kirby won handily from Maresa, with Sir Christopher third. Weather fine, track fast. SUMMARY. six furiongs, purse—Revoit to 2, won; Magic Flute, 1, second: Maude Brow 30 to 1, third. , 1:15%.

The balance of the card is as follows: Frank Smith vs. Arthur Oliver, Young McClure vs. Carl Win- ters, James Leary vs. George Cole and Frank Dell vs. William Brannon. — s Both Men Training Hard. OAKLAND, March 3.—“Cyclone” Kelly and Billy Woods, who will box before the Sequoia Athletic Club next Tuesday evening, are training hard for the bout. Both men are confident of coming off victorious. The club has arranged two good preliminaries. ——e— Tealey Raymond, infield utility man of the Los Angeles Baseball Club, left here yesterday to join the team at Los Angeles. - bt 1y mile and seventy yards, won, Burning Glass & bright and early, Large sums were wagered on | eecond; Mac | Pat Morrissey Takes a Race Quite . Cleverly. | | Among the many offerings harpooned from the pickle jar and thrust upon an unsuspecting public at Oakland yester- | day Dungannon exceeded them all for flavor and tartness. 5 % ! The fact that the previous time out | the filly was beaten twenty lengths or some such trivial matter by the winner of the race did not in the least discon- cert the filly's admirers. * She-was one of half a dozen starters in the second event on the card, and it certainly | looked a mellow spot to drop down a : ripe one. ! The coin arrived on the ground and from 2 to 1 the | odds were swiped to 11 to 10. Unfortu- nately good things will crawl, and Dun- gannon finished second. Jerry Roach took her out in front and she behaved most becomingly until well straightened for the wire, Then “Big Bill” Knapp on Jimmy Coffey’s Laocoon happened to drop along, and after an extended drive beat the favorite out more than a length. CHAPEL IS A BOLTER. Chapel, with Travers in the saddle, | which was backed back from 2% to 332, desired to take no part in the proceed- ings, obligingly bolting at the start and obtaining a return check. 1t could not be called an espcepially brilliant session for the favorites, as but two succeeded in reaching the home goal first. The track was slow and cuppy. The books profited well by the bowling over of Judge Voorhies, Dungannon, Montana Peeress, Mr. Dingle and Amasa. On paper Judge Voorhies lpoked far and away the best of the ten start- ers in the first event, for which rea. son he was installed favorite. Well ridden by See, the Judge once showed first in the stretch, but could not stana the pressure, and ran unplaced. The cuppy going seemed to suit Adirondack to a nicety, and at 5 to 1 the Shannon entry, ridden by Jack Martin, beat Past Master out half a length. Bux- ton finished third on Assessment. Nel- lie Bawn died away after leading into the stretch. 4 David §, which has played a hand in a little of everything connected with the racing game, captured the sefond six and a half furlong run, backed from 3% to 1 to 13 to 5, equal favorite with Montana Peeress. DAVID - S IS BEST. The latter mare ¥eached the head of the stretch first, but tired under Willie Daly, finishing third. David S proved to be much the best, for he was ridden | in the deep going part of the way and then downed Young Morello half a length. Blackthorn, a heavily backed one, flattered his admirers by display- ing speed early in the race and then faded away. Some were unkind to refer to the mile and fifty-yard selling fixture won by Pat Morrissey as a boat race. Mr. Dingle opened favorite for the race at 3 to 2, but for some reason the odds lengthened to 9 to 5 despite a steady public play. He was ridden by Dr. Rowell's apprentice Travers, and his effort was certainly a ridiculous one. Travers received instructions to take the center of the track, thereby avoid- ing the heavy going on the rail. In- stead he went out of his way to grab | the rail position for some inexplicable reason and was not placed at the finish. There was a heavy play on Pat Mor- rissey just before post time. Holbreok rode him with vim and energy, was allgwed to shape out his own pace and practically won from start to finish. Among the late arrivals was Jack Mar- tin, astride Expedient, who brought his mount up in time to dispose of old Prince Blazes a nose for the place. PICKAWAY SCORES. As Pickaway had been off in his feed the stable didn't think the sprint- er good enough to win the five furlong scramble, and from 4 his odds went to 6 to 7. Amasa, wearing a new set of plates, was played down to 11 to 5 favoritism and collected nothing. At the start Sherwood jumped away in the lead with Pickaway and was never headed. Nonie ran second, a head before Quiz. Second into the stretch, Amasa registered back among the “also rans.” Most of the real smart money went into the books on Handpress to win the final six furlong spin, and the little fellow. came home. He went to the post favorite and gradually wearing. down Fair Lady Anna, led Modder out two lengths. Mountebank couldn’t scare up a respectable gallop. NOTES OF THE TRACK. Ike Hackelburg, the well-known New ¥York bookmaker, left for home yesterday, George E. Smith (Pittsburg Phil) departed for Hot Springs on yester- day’s overland train. The four-mile Thornton stake will be reopened to-day for additional en- tries. Out of fifteen foals at Napa stock farm to date, eleven are colts. ENTRIES FOR TO-DAY.

Sy veg ‘PO LOIST FALLS ON THE FIELD F J. Carolan’s Pony Goes Down Heavily, but Rider Gamely Makes Light of It HOBART PLAYS WELL Leads His Team to Vietory, Although Opposing Four Makes Light of Accident A Y ot F. J. Carolan had a narrow escape from injury in a practice game of polo on his Crossways Farm fleld yesterday afternoon. While riding at a fast gal- lop his pony fell, and in struggling to regain his feet rolled over and over sev- eral times, and it seemed impossible that the rider could escape without a serfous hurt. He did, however, and only sustained a few brulses, which he treated lightly. The match was won by the reds, di- rected by Walter S. Hobart, who played a brilliant game throughout. The score was 3 to 2 in thelr favor. The victory was all the more notable from the fact that the opposing whites were cap- tained by Neil Haig, who is a tower of strength to any, team. There were several changes of sides, but in the de- ciding contest the players were lined up as follows: Reds—Paul Clagstone, Captain Chap- | lin, Walter McCreery and W. S. Ho- bart. M. Tobin and C. Raoul-Duval. F. J. Carolan, F.J. Mackey and | Charles Garland also played earuer in the game. There will be two matches on Sunduy afternoon on C. W. Clark’s fleld at San Mateo, in which all the best players now here will participate. —_—————— MODEL YACHT CLUB MEN USE BOATS IN PRACTICE Are Deeply Involved in the Question of the Over-All Length of Their Craft. P The San Francisco Model Yacht Club will formally open the racing season on the new Spreckels Lake in Golden Gate Park in a few weeks. In the meantime the small craft will have practice races every Sunday. way the owners will become accus- tomed to the new lake and will be bet- ter able to handle the boats. At a meeting held during the week the principal topic of discussion was the over-all length of the boats. Last year the largest models measured sey- enty inches over all, while this year three have already been built measur- ing eighty inches. The question raised is whether the latter are eligible to race. The matter of determining an officlal over-all limit length was put in the hands of a committee composed of L. S. Adams, J. D. Daisley and E. P. Leslie. At the meeting the championship pennant for 1903 was awarded to Wil- liam Roeckner’s scow schoonmer An- nie. The Annie had the largest win- nings for the year and is therefore en- titled to the flag of supremacy. Eleven new models are being built and with those already built this year the fleet will greatly outnumber that of last year. The new boats are ail fast and the one that wins the 1904 pennant will ‘certainly be a crack boat. Next week the official measurer will commence measuring the boats of the club and hereafter all official races will be held under time allowance tables and rules. The first race for the Dickey cup will probably not take place before the Fourth of July in order to give the yachtsmen a chance to lear. the lake. —_———— DESIRE AID TO BUILD UP CALIFORNIA'S INTERESTS State Board of Trade and the Pro- motion Committee Seek Co-Opera- tion of Citizens.
