Nineteen horses ran. The Blue Bonnets course is the finest racing prop-city in Canada, and in the beauty of its location and the amplitude of its accommodations can hardly lie surpassed anywhere. The track is a mile and a furlong around and wide enough for fields of any size. The seven-furlongs and mile races are run out of chutes, so that the horses have practically only one turn to go around. — Toronto Globe. President Thomas II. Williams of the Pacific .liM-key Club, who is in New York at present, is quoted as follows on the H. O. Bedwell case: "Bedwell was ruled off in Kentucky after a fail-trial. Until be is reinstated wo cannot allow Mas to race his horses at Oakland any more than the Jockey Club would Bel wit hint to race on the New York tracks tinder the circumstances. I know Bed-well well and I sympathize with him in his present trouble, but I can do nothing for him."
