OAKWOOD AND GREAT WESTERN. I Founded in the first year of racing at Washington Park the Oakwood and Great Western handicaps have ever since ranked among the most popular fixtures annually offered by the Washington Park Club. Of the series of big handicaps at tn8 great southside track the Oakwood is the shortest in distance and the Great Western the longest. The history of both is replete with stirring contests in which the best handicap horses of the weBt have struggled for mastery and in the Great Western it was that Goodrich set the American record for a mile and a half in figures not likely to be soon erased. Splendid entry lists have beon awarded to both, the good colt Runnels being in the Oakwood and last years American Derby winner, Wyeth, in the Great Western. Neither of these two cracks being in the Wheeler or Young. The entries are as follows : The Oakwood Handicap. A sweepstakes for three-year-olds and upward ; 0 to accompany the nomination; 0 additional to start ; ,500 added, of which 00 to the second and 00 to the third horse.
