Disagreeable weather conditons did much to affect the attendance today. A cold wind blowing through the stand made it anything but pleasant for those courageous enough to attend. Notwithstanding the Inclement conditions a good-sized crowd turned out and were well repaid by witnessing excellent sport. Changed track conditons. caused ly heavy rains during the night, had the form plavers guessing somewhat and they were able to land ott but two of the six winners. The feature event of the day was the Senoritas Stakes, for two-year-old fillies. The Traiumell entry, consisting of Calisse and I.una Beall. ruled favorite, but I.ady Rankin, running in the colors of W. MeI.eniorc, was returned the winner.
