Tanforans Spring Cap On Monday Attracts 19 Ying and Yang May Rule Slight Choice Oyer Bisco, Gaelic Gold TANFORAN, San Bruno, Calif., May 9. — Nineteen thoroughbreds, representing the largest field to go postward here all spring, this morning were drawn into the 2,425 Spring Handicap which will feature Tan forans closing program of nine races here on Monday. The distance is a mile and a sixteenth. I The nine highweights, pegged at from! I 120 to 114 pounds, are Jones and Elmcre Jr.s Ying and Yang, Mrs. Dana L. Fullers Bisco, Triple K Stables Gaelic Gold, Cy Patriquins Busher Fantasy, Fairlea Farms Gigantic, R. H. McDaniel Stable and Rodder Brothers Redistitch, Meschuk and Browns Khalex, R. S. Howards Whatitold-you, Raoul Walshs Bounty Bay and C. V. Whitneys Hit the Trail. Completing the field are Western Stables Cino, W. Lambrechts Wildoath, R. G. Campbells Hasty Score, Briar Cliff Stables Haydn, Rocking M. Ranchs Glade Flower, C. R. C. Stables Spike, Shima and Lauders Aly Tudor, F. Marshalls Circle Lea and Arthur Fellows Empiric. In such a large field, the horses which-are able to avoid trouble are likely to present the strongest challenges for victory. Otherwise, there is not much to choose among the various qualities of the Spring Handicap contestants. Most of them have raced creditably all spring. Among those in the closing-day feature who have either won or placed in stakes are Ying and Yang, who is Mondays top weight; Bisco, Gaelic Gold, Busher Fantasy, Gigantic, Whatitoldyou and Bounty Bay. Most think Ying and Yang, who has been racing with some of the best horses at this meeting, will rule a slight choice, but many of the others also have much to recommend them as threats.
