| I Yes You, Option Entry SetforTatnall Purse Palatine Stable Duo Hold Edge Over Six Delaware Park Rivals DELAWARE PARK, Stanton. Del.. June 28. — The Tatnall Purse, designed for sprinters of the 0,000 to ,000 variety, features tomorrows off-day program and the eight-horse field includes Yes You and Option, who race under the banner of Frank Rosens Palatine Stable. Others entered for the six-furlong dash are Mrs. Henry S. Clarks Puppet, Arnold Hangers Baluster, R. Roy McClarins New Oxford. Mrs. William E. Snells Toreador, Taylor Leatherburys Vagrant Cloud and Mrs. Frank Wrights Witch Way. Either of the Palatine entrants could earn the major share of the spoils, but Yes You must be accorded the edge due to the conditioning he has received during the meeting. After winning over the local strip in 1:11%, he came back to be beaten only one length by King Mowlee in 1:11 flat. Had he not drifted out while being urged through the stretch, he would have been the winner of that dash. Option has won but a single race this season but has been freshened since May 9 and should turn in a creditable effort. Toreador, a Bull Lea gelding with a pair of local triumphs, revels in the mud and could come up .the favorite and winner should this condition exist. He was, however, t beaten five and one-half lengths by I King Mowlee in a recent effort, while Ye* You was beaten but a length. Baluster is the most frequent winner in the Tatnall field, having won four races prior to being unsuccessful in three local engagements. His first two races here were satisfactory, but he appeared unable to handle i the sloppy going when beaten off by Windflower in his last. Puppet won his debut in Maryland but has failed to score in four other starts this season. New Oxford, on the other hand, failed in his first three starts and in his Vagrant Cloud launched her campaign belatedly here several weeks ago and was no*: disgraced when nine lengths behind Merry Risk. Witch Way, too, is a non-winner this year, having started four times, most recent effort beat ,500 sprinters in 1:11%.
