. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. March 31,1894] t&lje gveetusv astir gp&vtamtxxu 293 CALIFORNIA JOCKEY CLUB FIFTY-EIGHTH DAYâTUESDAY, MARCH 27. ILL "the talent" ever have an- other inning in San Francisco is ' the question of the hour in local horse circles ? For about a week __ past the pencilers have been reap- s][ ing a rich harvest, and the form- "* players are about broke. Mr. Ferguson was In wretched form to-day. In the first race Palm Sunday was sent off in the lead, and he was never headed, landing a lot of money for those that knew of his good work in Mexico just previous to coming here. The track was quite fast to-day, and the time made in four of the five races was excellent. Palm Sunday, played down from 30 to 1 to 7 to 1, got away in front in the first race, and was never headed, winning by two lengths. Sidney ran second for a time, but Orizaba ran up next to Palm Sunday coming around the last turn, beating Durango four lengths for the place. Bliss, who was ofi° very poorly, ran up fourth, beaten but a short head by Durango. Pat Murphy, the favorite, led all the way in the second race, winning with ease by two lengths after a slight tussle half-way down the homestretch with EI Tirano, who got the place. Installator, with 121 pounds up, came fast at the end, and was third. Nutwood and Braw Scot fought to the homestretch in the mile, Macbeth lying third and looking all over a winner as they turned into the straight. Bed Boot came like a shot from the middieof the pack, however,and romped in by over a length, while Braw Scot beat Macbeth half a length for the place. The last-named was a well-played favorite. Motto ran very rapidly from the rear in the six-furlong dash, and was two leagths in front at the half-pole. She led into the homestretch by that margin, and Charley Weber took a wrap on her the last part of it. Rear Guard challenged her in the final sixteenth, but the mare came again and won handily enough by a neck
