Two Good Purse Races Support the Feature Contest — Allegro Given Difficult Task in Cadillac. DETROIT, Mich., June 23.— Ten speed-: sters, representing the best of this division quartered at the Fair Grounds course of the Detroit Racing Association, were named for the ,500 Cadillac Handicap, to be renewed over six furlongs as the feature of tomor-. rows program. The stakes tops the best program of the meeting and although the eight races, post time for the first race which will be 2:30 Oclock, attracted only small fields, they are i well balanced and competition is expected to I be brisk. Supporting the Cadillac is the Detrola | Radio Corporation Purse at one mile and j seventy yards, and the Colin Purse for two- I year-olds. Both are combination affairs, but i they attracted only horses to compete under allowance conditions. Having the toughest assignment of his career, Allegro will carry 122 pounds, or three pounds more than he toted when scoring a driving victory in the Open Heart Fund Handicap ten days ago. It is the same package allotted the five-year-old Bernard F and by the scale Allegro will be called upon to give much weight to all of his opponents. RETURNS TO SPRINTING. After winning the Col. Alger Memorial Handicap, Bernard F. met defeat in the Motor City Handicap, also at one and one- sixteenth miles. It will be the first time since the Keeneland meeting that Bernard F. has indulged in sprint racing, but he trounced a good field at Oaklawn Park over an abbreviated six furlongs and last fall won two races at Latonia over six furlongs. Star Boarder, a stablemate of Allegro, win- ner of the Motor City Handicap and also a three-year-old, will pack 110 pounds. He too will concede weight to many by the scale, for the older Night Editor, who has the Belle Isle Handicap to his credit, gets in under 113 pounds.

G. H. Ellis, Toronto physician, appears well weighted under 110 pounds. He is coupled with Teddy Haslam and Bomber, but the latter is expected to pass up the stakes in favor of the Detrola Radio Purse. Pompeys Pillar, recent arrival from North Randall, is named also for the fifth event and like Teddy Haslam and Bomber, gets in the fea- ture under 105 pounds. TIME PLEASE IN LIGHT. Narrowly beaten last Saturday by Banner Man, Prince Argo, leading sprinter of the Fairmount Park season, will tote 109 pounds j and Time Please is the low weight under 101 pounds. His best hold appears to be an ad- ! verse track and unless that kind of footing prevails, he probably will decline the issue. Domkin, disappointing favorite in the Sal- Ian Cup Handicap, will have an opportunity to make amends in the Colin Purse. He is I top weighted under 119 pounds and those to oppose him will be Baltee, Joe Greenock, Mighty Fine and the Doumani and Hoik- heimer entry of Dream Boat and Windsor I Chief. Although only six were named for the ] Detrola Radio Purse, they appear to be j evenly matched. Golden Era will tote the i top burden of 117 pounds and among his op-14 ponents will be Our Willie, who was fast wearing down Allegro in the Open Heart Fund Handicap. Our Willie should be more | at home over the one mile and seventy yards j and probably will be the pre-post favorite. Cool and clear weather prevailed for the big ladies day crowd today and the fore-50 cast is for fair weather for tomorrow.
