Dick Welles Selections SelectionsAt At Aurora LAFE 31 CLOPOIITE OLD PAIGE PAIGEBumper Bumper fields are again in order for to ¬ days racing and the opener is no exception seventeen being1 entered The race should afford LAFE M an excellent opportunity of making amends for his last out when he was handed a trimming by Bathilde Seth after being made the medium of a heavy play lie is a natural front runner and is quick to get in motion and should be able to carry his speed for the five and half furlongs to be the winner If CLOPORTES most recent races at Columbus count for anything she is going to make the race interesting for the winner Jn her last four starts at the Ohio track she was the winner once and then ran to the place in her three next starts OLD PAIGE failed to finish in the money in his first start here but at that was only beaten by about three lengths We think that race was all he needed to put him on edge for todays battle and are expecting to see him much closer up at the finish finishHOXXIE HOXXIE LIZZIE P T BARXUM MOVE OX SETIf SETIfSeventeen Seventeen more were entered in the second tilt a dash of five and a half furlongs The Huntington performer BONNIE LIZZIE is our choice to cop with P T BARNUM and MOVE OX SETH occupying the place and show portions of the purse The former was looked upon as one of the best sprinters at the last Havana meeting and then con ¬ tinued 011 her winning way at Huntington If she turns in the same kind of a race here she stands an excellent chance of scoring P T BARNUM lias only had one race to date at this track when he finished un ¬ placed We take it that he needed that race for a tightener and expect him to show to much better advantage today MOVE ON SETH is the kind of a racer that is apt to spill the beans most any time out and is al ¬ ways dangerous One of his good races would find him a close up contender contenderBATHILDE BATHILDE SETH DESPAIR DELL EVAXS EVAXSThe The race that BATHILDE SETH put up in her first appearance here was such a good one that we think she ought to be able to account for this number if in the same kind of trim She gets in with a postage stamp on her back and if a capable rider can be found for her that can make the weight she should just fly over the threequarters DE ¬ SPAIR is in the hands of a smart trainer and will not be sent to the post unless fit and ready He has run some good races in his day and assuming that he is now ready for a race think he will be the one to cause the winner the most trouble DELL EVANS is a speedy individual when in a running mood and reports are that he is now in the pink That being the case he will bear watching in the race and may be the one to upset the dope Of the others IDLE THOUGHTS seems to be the best bestCARTOOX CARTOOX CROSS BOW COGWHEEL COGWHEELThe The race put up by CARTOON in the Joliet Handicap last Wednesday was a surprise to even his trainer He simply had speed to burn on that occasion and if he has retained that same form will have to be reckoned with Jn this race the Wild Rose Purse It is an allowance affair and under the condi ¬ tions he gets in with 101 pounds The one expected to give him the most trouble is CR6SS BOW which chased him home in the Joliet His last three races here have been of high order and he is bound to improve We look for him to be much closer up today than he was in his race Wednesday COGWHEEL has but to put up the same brand of speed to take down the show the same as he did in the race won by CARTOON CARTOONMAX MAX BRICK CHINK STRUT MISS The StCharles Handicap feature race on the half holiday card brings out the best horses in training at the course and a good race should result If MAX BRICK would run as well over the firm footing as he did in his last race which was in the mud we think he should not have much trouble in scoring He gets in with 114 pounds the same weight he carried in his last winning performance CHINK makes his initial de ¬ but of the year to Aurora racegoers here He put in a busy season at Hawthorne last year and WPS last seen in a race at Havre de Grace this spring He did not show so well there but since being quartered here has been turning in some fine moves A race back to those works would find him close to the winner at the windup STRUT MISS LIZZIE came into her own her last out and easily beat Pegasus and Statler among others She is a speedy mare when fit and is apt to cause the others plenty of trouble bsfore the official sign is hung out SANOLA looks dangerous also she having won her last two races here hereBROTHERLY BROTHERLY LOVE EQUITY MAR CARET GAUT GAUTStill Still another large field is promised for the sixth event a run of a mile and seventy yards The aged Helmet gelding BROTH ¬ ERLY LOVE demonstrated that he still has a few winning races in those legs of his in his last out when he finished second to Bullet Proof We like his chances here and think he will be the one to score EQUITY showed quite an improvement in his last race over a preceeding start and if he puts forth the same effort today may again be the one to place MARGARET GAUT just missed getting the decision iii her first start here being beaten by Tick Tock She will carry the postage stamp of 95 pounds and at the weight looks like the danger in the race BOBBIE SHEA has been1 close up in his most recent races and if he runs in the same manner today may have a word to say when the numbers are put up up31ERCUTIO 31ERCUTIO RUXQUOlTMART BTJXCH BTJXCHThe The two time winner MERCUTIO gets the call in the final race on the card over the mile and a sixteenth distance The usual bulky field is to be seen here when the bugle calls the racers postward no less than seventeen being entered His last out was the most impressive of the two for he merely toyed with his opponents to be the winner by several lengths The same kind of racing today should find him running his score to three RUNQUOI showed an extreme reversal of form in his last race and if that showing was not of the flukey variety may be expected to again account for the place money MART BUNCH ran one of his poor races his last appearance but can do much better We will be very much surprised if he does not get the show at least SETTEE js about due and should a surprise winner come with the running look to the latter One Best Bet MAX BEICK in Fifth Eace
