I SCORES HIS TENTH VICTORY Harry D Continues His Remark ¬ able Winning March Commander J K L Ross Rchnke Defeats DefeatsHaln Haln by Incbcs After Tempestnous TempestnousRace Race Two More for C B Irwin SAN DIEGO Cal January 11 Day by day in every way Im getting better and better Harry D gallant campaigner in the C B Irwin string made this line con ¬ tributed by Emile Coue psychologist rmg true at the Tijuana track yesterday after ¬ noon noonIt It was agreed by many shrewd judges that the son of Barnsdale Turnaway had been somewhat overmatched in the last race of the card and that after nine victories in thir ¬ teen starts at this meeting he was destined to bow in defeat defeatThreequarters Threequarters and they will beat Harry D was the prorace verdict of many However manyHowever they had reckoned without their host for Harry D gallantly bent to his task and could have passed Bill Blackwell pace ¬ maker in the early running had he desired Jockey Rails saved his mount for part of the race but rounding the turn for home he allowed him to go to the front and the marvel horse of the Tijuana meeting finished gamely to hold all others safe and won by threequarters of a length from Sam Reh n third position was Bill Blackwell while May Maulsby which had been made favorite ran below the expectations of her followers and finished fourth fourthIt It would seem say those who pay close attention to turfdoms records and have an effervescent memory that Harry D has made an unique record This unusual thor ¬ oughbred was claimed last spring by Irwin from C B Groves for 800 During the sum ¬ mer he was turned out on the Y6 Ranch at Cheyenc Wyo and was brought to the ircscnt Tijuana meeting a vastly improved horse In the thirtyeight days of racing sines the sport was opened Harry D has been to the post fourteen times and only out of the money on two occasions His win today was his tenth and he also has two seconds to his credit creditUNUSUALLY UNUSUALLY QUICK STARTER STARTERIn In each of his last few races a majority of race goers have been predicting his de ¬ feat but as yet no horse has been able to take his measure An unusually quick start ¬ er and an easy and free running horse to ride Harry D Knows the shortest way home Fiis front running proclivities have kept him reo from the interference which a thorough jred encounters when coming from behind Even despite his success the speculators looked for something to beat him this after ¬ noon and as a consequence he paid the good price of 230 to 1 1The The victory of Harry D in a claiming race made a handicap play second fiddle in popu ¬ lar approval when the days racing was re ¬ viewed The handicap was the sixth raco on the card a gallop of an even mile It called postward a field of seven with Re ¬ buke from the Commander J K L Ross string installed an oddson choice Rebuke ultimately won the race but he had a tem ¬ pestuous trip Soon after leaving the post Rebuke stumbled and lost much ground Jockey Claver did not rush him umil the backstretch was reached when he urged the horsa to a position within hailing distance of the leaders Here Rebuke was the vic ¬ tim of considerable buffeting when he at ¬ tempted to get through on the Inside Final ¬ ly CJaver found a clear course for his mount and the solid black answered the call to come through the stretch with a great dis ¬ play of gameness He eventually wore Halu down and Rebuke was the winner by inches Rebuke carried the top impost of 113 pounds and was giving away from seventeen to twentyeight pounds to the others othersPAISLEY PAISLEY ONLY SPRINTER SPRINTERBlack Black Betty from the Irwin stable was Laird by the length of her neck over Paisley the latter and Halu being coupled as the Allen and Tryon entry Paisley was making his first start at a long distance and showed to good advantage for seveneighths of the journey He showed in front momentarily midway of the stretch but it was discernible that he had reached the limit of effort After all perhaps it was stretching it out to ask the horse to go this distance It is believed he is strictly a sprinter sprinterAnother Another victory for Irwin came earlier in the afternoon when Tom Craven annexed his first set of brackets since his present owner claimed him last spring Irwin exhibited a waiting game with much patience and he had the satisfaction of seeing the horso finally win a purse Irwin is rated as a David Harum with the thoroughbred but his business acumen was somewhat awry in the case of Tom Craven He claimed him for 3500 and was required to wait almost a year before seeing him earn his oats oatsNeal Neal Bartholomew appear to have a snug hold on the twoyearold races for this firm won their second juvenile victory This time it was with Norwood a Honey wocd colL This baby was starting for the first time and despite racing green and going extremely wide on the far turn he was much the best and won by plenty of daylight daylightFrank Frank Fogarty was a wild horse in the seventh race and well ridden by jockey Molters He made a show of his opponents He finished out the mile and seventy yards a winner by four lengths from Summer Sigh and Vic The winner was a slight choice from Summer Sigh and they finished as tho betting indicated indicatedTho Tho longestpriced winner of the day was Lobelia in the fourth race This maro scored a close verdict from Delancey in a thrilling duel which lasted throughout the stretch stretchWilliam William Red Walker filed a claim In the seventh race for Silk Sox but inasmuch as ho had not signed his name to the bid it was disapproved by the stewards stewardsJockey Jockey Rails and Molters took the riding honors each having two winning mounts mountsColonel Colonel R L Baker reports that his speedy Jim Daisy came out of his last race with a badly sprained foot and will be on the shelf for the next fortnight fortnightHenry Henry McDaniel trainer for the Ross stable is elated with the splendid manner in which Spanish Maize is training Mc ¬ Daniel says the horse has taken on much needed flesh and he expects him to do well hero
