8 THE CALL'S PAGE OF SPORTS RALEIGH LOWERS A TRACK RECORD Consistent Son of Basset/aw Runs Mile and 40 Yards in 1:40 JOE MURPHY A %'cry ordinary card -was offered at Emeryville yesterday. Two favorites came home in front and the other choices failed dismally. Sir Fretful at 15 to l was the choicest morsel of the afternoon, as the Hamilton stable's gelding- came home with odds of 15 to 1 chalked against him. It was the maiden victory of the winner. He had been selected frequently to do the trick in the past, but had failed repeatedly, and his victory yesterday surprised everybody. Raleigh was one of the favorites to win. The reliable son of Bassetlaw won the third event at a mile and 20 yards and established a new track record for the distance by cutting a fifth of a second off the former track record of 1:40 1-5 established by W. T. Overton. November 7, 190S, carrying 102 pounds. Raleigh carried*ll4 pounds yesterday when he performed the feat. Opposed to Doss' entry .was a good field of distance performers, which in cluded R. Mackenzie's clever performer, Michael Angelo. and the good Bonnie Bard. Angelo opened favorite, but the play was centered on Raleigh. His price was hammered from 5 to 2 to 11 to 5, and lie closed favorite. Raleigh ran a game race and over took Bonnie Bard, which led until close to the wire. The winner won going away. Eddie Graney, from a p<jor start, finished in third place andvwould have been a keen contender with an even break. Michael Angelo showed good speed until the stretch, when he weakened noticeably. -The layers' handicap was run in the fourth event for the benefit of the pen cilers. It was the dally six and a half I furlongs event which provided the joke race of the afternoon. Starter Holtman tried to get the field away, but he had as much success as he had had in his previous experience at 'this point. The field got off like a funeral. Severalof them were detained, but fortunately they were not the favorites, so the crowd did not have a chance to roar. Likely Dieudonne made the pace to the stretch, when Phil Mohr assumed the lead. Veneta Strome,. the favorite, was well placed until the stretch, but Taplin* rode the choice into a pocket, from which he was unable to extricate her. It was a .bungling ride on the little Fresnoan's part, for Mackenzie's entry would probably have romped with fair luck. Marchmonet was third, a head behlsd Likely Dieudonne. Green Isle was backed into favorit ism to win the maiden 2 year old event, which was the first race on the card. Garner piloted the filly, which was full of run and won a nice vic t"'-v' from Dutch Rock, with Dublin Minstrel third. v . E. Cotton's entry, Gramercy, finally. found a spot and cantered home an easy winner" in the second event at clx furlongs. The winner was 8 to 1 in the betting. Braxton being the fa vorite at 16 to 5. Glass rode the .-.win ner and made his move in the stretch, when his mount responded gamely, win ning going away from Frank G.Ho gan and Braxton. , J.*t^ Browns entry, Nebulosus, which has been frequently knocking at the door, finally found his Way down In front. He was 5 to 1 to capture the fifth event, and Taplin broke ..his maiden by putting the son of SL Sym phorien over a winner. . Captain»Bur nett was made the choice and the-ag-ed son of Rubicon ran his : usual consist ent race by finishing third after show- THE CALL'S HANDICAP FORECAST NETTING-LADY McNALLY-BRIGHTON FIRST RACE— Six furlongs; selling; 3 year olds and upward: Index Horse -'. . ;. v- Wt Remarks • -12 t^Ft^^wVtt^ • '11l Has 6h ' >wn the ****\u25a0 torm ot a cheap bunc! ._,•., BRIGHTON.... 107 Might do It. 152§ J! al • 1 11 ' Could win easily on best form. £&> I'ete 111 Has not rot run his race. - ..^ ••'.-'\u25a0 .•O4 Lookout ; ill Little fornr ti»th«' others. <<5O Gypsy Girl 107 77.-8 Donald ill . \u26667704 Yellow Foot .11l • \ BISKRA— PRUDENT— BAMBRO SECOND RACE— Sir furlongs; selling; 3 year olds and upward: r - a £ xx • DT « I J5 o osJ se * Wt Remarks iSOO BISKRA 11l Recent races puts this one on top. 7«73 PRUDENT 114 Fast, but inclined to quit. 7753 BAMBRO ....11l Recent races good. . . 7SOO riome Run .-.-.. 114 Has been running below form. 7775 Beda 107 Showed good speed iu* last Btart. 7703 Minnedocla ..107 Form good. 7rif.2 Rnsamo * .....'... 114 Form has been poor. 7800 Comury ; ill Very faint hearted. . 7760 Calla ..-. 11l Form fair. 77£7 Ocean View ••; 107 Done nothing. • 7763 Burnell t. :........i..11l Form ordinary; MEDI A— GOLDEN AGNES— PLEASANT THIRD RACE— Futurity course; 2 year olds: Index Horse Wt Remarks 7770 MEDIA '. ...112 All races good.
