Yoshiini, K. V. liny maker's big black 5-year-old, stands out a* one horse that should win at the Jeffer son park track today. This son of Ballot, although in with a fair set of hoi sew in the fifth race, appears best at the weights, ifuesads should lose the track, and if he run* his race, should be close up. Smart Huy. by Thro. Cook, should run better than hi* last time out and com* home in time for the show end of the purse. The opening race on the day’s pro gram is for maiden 2 year olds, w ith U of the youngstere named to dash over the five-eighths of a mile route. It will be a problem for the talent to name the winner. Bad Luck Is my choice, although its chance* of win nine would be much better at a longe, distance. St. Nlchola* should grab off the second money, while I look for Dean H. to be next beet. The sixth exent will test the en durance of nine thoroughbreds of the long-winded Hass, as the race call* for one and a half times around the hig oval. On paper, tfuoner should outstay the reot of the hunch. Hoy's hig dish I* to run the full route, so be on the lookout for thi* bird at the finish. Smuts should be running strong at the end. Six platers are named to atart in the.closing race, a gallop at a mile an*a sixteenth. Stonewall looks %‘ery much like the winner. General < a dorna. who ha* failed to show his best effort thus far during the meet, is liable to be In the way. David Harum. who Is known a* an In and outer, may take a notion to run, and If he doe*, he will be capable of win tiing the heat. The fifth race at Tia Juana, s dash of six furlongs, should serve the cus tomers with the best racing of the day. Six of the best platers in train lng are entered and the handlcapper has so arranged the weights that, no one horse stands out. Postillion --s Tad Fa ans' Selections I NEW ORI.KANH. I.
