SYNOPSIS It was post time for the Santa Anita Handicap. “Coronado," the favorite, with fourteen straight wins, pranced on the track to the applause of the crowd. Dan Milla, his owner, a sportsman of high calibre, hung on the rail. watchiM, Just a fa* hours ago. ho had cob lapsed in the tach room and Charley Baesitt, horseman of unsavory reputation, had taken "C ron.d. to the receiving barn. Thrilling with eac itement. Dan's I (-year old daughter, Heather, watches from her boa. tn the unreserved section Is “Slim" fiaynard and his pal. "Snapper" Elliott. "Slim." born Andre* Branson Maynard, knew horses: his father had a string of thoroughbreds when Slim was * boy. but a flood ruined the Hayward stables and Slim is now on hi* appose. All h* and Snapper could scrap* together was bet on "Co-o nado." Slim see* Baesitt com* from th* ISO window with a wad of tickets and wonder* which horse he waa betting on. Coronado, fractious at th* post, pinions his leg on th* stall gat*. With the yell. •They're Offt," he rushes to th* Iced, apparently uninjured, but before the horse* had gon* a eiattenth of a mile, Coronado's leg* buckled and ha crashed headlong to the ground-dying ot a broken back. Th* blow is too much for Dan and, nest day. he dies. All that ar* left to Heather ar* * breeding farm in Carmel Valley and “Artichoke*," a etable-hand of whom Coronado was especially fond. Three day* leter. Heather sit* in the lobby of th* Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles, crushed and lonely. The place buczed with insinuation* regarding Charlie Baisitt and Coronado'* "accidental" death. CHAPTER IV It was then Slim Maynard sauntered near Heather on his way to the bar with Snapper. Wherever horsemen gathered, this pair eould usually be found, a* Slim put H, “bussing around." "Well, I'm glad the meet's about over.” Snapper was opining gloomily, Jooking back over the winter racing season in unpleasant retrospection. “I’d rather take my bath in th* good old conventional Saturday night way instead of every afternoon in those Santa Anita mutual*. And Coronado's crack-up waa th* final washup. "Slim, thing* have been so tough, I bcicha if they took a blood teat of me right n«w it would come out "0 per cent coffee and doughnuts and the rest hamburger." Slim chuckled. “Aw, we'll stagger into another lucky streak one us these days," he comforted hi* gloomy companion. But what good would it do If they did, he wondered. Money they won was like so many beer ehecks to be tossed right back over the bar es chance. What the mutual* missed, the bookies got. Slim waa like that—restless. Once Slim had parlayed a shoestring into a pair of spats. He ran his roll up to 11.000 and then, in one grandiloquent swoop, tossed it off on a 12 to 1 shot that's still running. “What price on the little sunbonnet girl in the black euit?" demanded Snapper, nodding toward Heather. Unobserved by the girl. Slim's ?uick eye took in her lithe figure rom head to to* “Odd»-on." he replied with conviction. “About three to five. I'd say.” And Slim never hung out a generous price on any lady. “Ten to on* in my book," ehot beck Snapper. “But mebbe I'm prejudiced. You know how I like 'em." “They're all about the same,” Slim said with an indifferent ehrug. But Slim caught himself slowing

Slim's attention was drawn from Heather by a familiar figure. Charlie Bassitt was marching through the lobby, herding a nondescript group to the bar. Raasltt was looking much better ♦han be had the day of ths big race, when Curvoade died tn the hope of one last victory.

Slim signalled to Snapper with a Jerk of hie head in Baesitt'* direction. If Slim had looked then h* would have surprised Heather, who htd heard, with her blue eyes astorrn with indignart tears. But Slim, with Snapper, was trailing th* Bassitt party late th* bar. "Tell us, Racaitt, what was«tha real low-down on Coronado?” they heard on* of the party ask. "Tow read what th* vet said in the papera," answered Bassitt. *y*. Ing himeelf In the big bar mirror. “Strained his baek when he got cast in the gate, broke it when he fell."

"All your thing* and , Mist' Dan's picture is in and everything is ready for to go back.” Heather stood up. Her slim figure in the black suit drooped with despair. “Go baek,” she repeated, unhap- . pily. “To the ranch —to Carmel Valley Rnt whs* fv fhm to go back to, Artichoke*? There’s no Coronado any more. There never will be. never in this world again, another hors* like Coronado " Her voice broke. Artichoke* shuffled his large feet in embarrassment. “Mebhe not.
