NEWCOMERS UPSET CALCULATIONS. "Given the ponies which were rtftinhig during the early summer at Wlndeor, any old stager could say; with reasonable certainty that such and such a horse will surely win if he doesnt get shot before he comes under the wire," says the Detroit News. "But now that half or more of the racers are brand new at the Ontario oval they have so shuffled the deck as to put guessing at a premium and cause the bookies to wax fat in their little coops. It is not for long, say the public, however. Yet but a day or two and they promise to get onto the combination and send those bookies back howling to their banks for more cash, all of which makes the game a more entrancing gala day for the patrons of the paddock and the betting ring."
