Three-Year-Olds Seek Omaha Twilight Event Marga and Pepper L. to Match Speed in Bold Venture Purse By PAT CAUDILL Staff Correspondent AK-SAR-BEN, Omaha, Nebr., June 22. Twilight racing will again prevail at this mile oval with Thursdays eight-race program to get under way at 3:30 p.m. Headlining the card will be the Bold Venture Purse, a test for allowance grade three-year-olds with ten named to go postward in the six furlongs affair which offers a purse of ,000. J. K. Houssels Marga, to be ridden by jockey Robert Ford, gets in with the light impost of 105 pounds and appears well placed to garner her first victory of this meeting. She has been meeting the top grade sophomores in previous outings here and appears to be taking sufficient drop in company tomorrow to merit top consideration. Pepper L., owned by W. D. Rorick and L. O. Lane, who suffered her f irst defeat in three starts in her last trip postward, is weighted at 110 pounds and will be ridden by jockey Robert Mundorf. He appears the strongest threat to the chances of Marga with R. Fannings Molly Darling, to be handled by jockey Sonny Ray Williams, also appearing to have a strong chance. F. O. Akin will be represented by an entry of Fire Fire Fire and Fillerup, with the field being completed by Mr. and Mrs. Carl Craigs Sharp Share, C. Dennys Ribbon Boy, R. J. Clarks Broad Moat, T. A. Gaughns Phils Brothe- nd I. L. Beckers Tribal Chief.
