A race for luaidcus. three-year-olds and over, went to Miss Sedalia. a 10 to 1 chance. Word received by N. K. BJoedy, who has a string at Tijuana from his foreman. W. S. Crawford, is to the effect that the track has been badly washed away and that it probably will be the first of March before racing at resumed. There is plenty of f od and supplies at the track and the stables and grand stand all escaped the flood unscathed. O, 11. Borland claimed Choctaw out of his rare yesterday and sold him to J. N. Mouuce this morning. Jockey Hunt was suspended for live days f r rough riding in the second race and jockey Sterling was similarly desciplincci for the same offense- i:i the third. - Frank D.
