A large proportion of the horses now running at San Francisco took part in the sixty days racing at Butte, Mont., last summer. Knowledge of their performances there is of great value to students of form who are following the course of racing at Frisco. Daily Racing Form has prepared a table of the Butte racing in compact style which is for sale at 10 cents. It will be mailed to all who may apply on receipt of the sum named.
