Dick Welles Selections At Aurora DOWXCAST COUNSELLOR CONNOLLY CEO DETER DETERThe The initial race on the program is framed for maiden threeyearolds and with one exception it is a bad lot that are to compete The Upset gelding DOWNCAST has been most unfortunate in many oC his races and he stands out head over heels orer the others He has been racing against horses of good class and at the finish usually was well up Against this sort of company he should not have the least bit of trouble in scoring by a large margin He seems to be the best play of the day COUNSELLOR CONNOLLY ran a couple of fair races at Lexington and appears to be the one most apt to land in the place position GBO DKVER has had plenty of racing of late and he seems doomed to always be a maiden However he managed to cop off the plait or show money m some of his races and we think he may go well enough here toget the short end of the purse purseKEUKY KEUKY GIRL IO U IS A O AY BOY IJ IJThe The second race will inaugurate the new Exposition Course distance This ney dis ¬ tance is 150 feet less than six and onehalf furlongs and it should result jn some good racing as it makes use of the long back stretch with only one turn being made KERRY GIRL is our choice to be victorious here She ran a fine race her first appear ¬ ance winning by many lengths She was then pitted against horses much better than herself and as a result met defeat in her next two starts Today the company is more of her own and we are expecting her to repeat her initial effort LOUIS A raced in much improved form his last out and seems to be nearing winning form If he has retained that form he will take plenty of beating before being declared out GAY BOY II has but to run one of his good races to take down the show money moneyDESPARD DESPARD MISS = XA CY MISSOURI BOY Tsasmucli as the long shots are going pyef with regularity at this meeting we are going to take a crack a one in this number It is over the new distance of the Exposition Course and all in all it is a bad band We are picking DESPARD on the strength of some information which we received to the effect that he is now in good form and ready for a winning effort This gelded son of Light Brigade used to win his share of purses a year or so back and last winter at New Orleans managed to get in the money on a fev occasions If the info which we re ¬ ceived is correct look to him to 1 eat home this bunch MISS NANCY turned in a good performance her last out and if she shows any Improvement at all will most likely be the one to place MISSOURI BOY has been turning in some good moves of late and has but to race back to those works to account for the small end of the purse purseJ J G BICKEL MELTINA MEDDLING SETH SETHWe We are picking J G BICKEL to be home the winner in the fourth event Its another poor lot that meets here and the winner is apt to tome from anywhere We are pick ¬ ing the latter on his Havana form He ran some good races at the Cuban course and beat horses better than he meets today If he would run as he is capable of he might be the winner MELV1NA used to be a pretty good sprinter a few years back Of late she hasnt done a great deal but If in any kind of condition at all should he the onc to place She ran a few good races over the Ohio courses and basing on those per ¬ formances seems best of the others MED ¬ DLING SETH seems unable to win at a distance over fiveeighths of a mile and we dont think he will last long enough today to get better than the show showAM AM I EARLY JOSIE HARTMAN THE WIRE WIREA A limit siaped field is promised for the fifth race given over to the baby racers which are asked to negotiate the fiveeighths distance for the first time at this meeting AM I EARLY seems to be the best of those entered here and she has but to repeat her last race to run her score to two The longer distance should also be of help to her as she seems to gain speed as the race progresses That she will meet worthy oppo ¬ sition Is evident for JOSEE HARTMAN which has a win to her credit over her is aloo carded to start These two will very likely dominate the running throughout unless one of the others should show a sudden form reversal JOSIE HARTMAN is riot quite the racer that AM I EARLY is in our estimation but should give her a battle for the winners portion of the purse THE WIRE came to life in his last race and beat home a bunch of ordinary ones On that race he looks to be the best of the others othersGREEN GREEN WOODS ROB ROY COLUMBIA II IIThe The sixth at a mile brings out the best horses of the day and while it carries the claiming clause some fairly good ones are scheduled to go postward GREEN WOODS looks like the logical play here Her only race found her finishing third to Green Blazes and Skivesdale and it was a good performance If a good rider can be found for Her we thing she will be the one to lead the others home ROB ROY failed miserably in his two races to date but he can do much better At Tijuana he scored in a couple of races and beat somegood ones too If he races back to that form he will be a hard one to beat COLUMBIA IL was claimed in Tier last start and it niay be thaj the change of trainers will work to her advantage She is possessed of a fine flight of speed and if ready will give the others a rare battle GUNNY SACK usually shows best over a muddy course but he may be good enough on the fast strip to get in the BROTHERLY LOYE FRANK GAILOR RUNNING FOX FOXBROTHERLY BROTHERLY LOVE is our pick to cop honors in the final race on the card He has started here but twice to date but on each occasion was close up at the finish His last race was especially good for he came from far back during the run down the stretch to finish in fifth place only beaten a little over two lengths If he would race in the same manner today we think he would be good enough to win FRANK GAILOR has one win to his credit here but dont think he can repeat that effort on the fast track That win was achieved over a slow course where he performs the best However he may be able to take down the place money if given a good ride RUNNING FOX can do much better than his last race showed and if he runs kindly should be the one to show CHEREBU is not to be overlooked as he is quite capable of turning the trick One Best Bet DOWNCAST in First Race
