of Ihr people aho play the horses around here don't know one thing about rating and furthermore do not care The odds they eetabllah through the totalltator day In and day out. are the moat ridiculous you'll Chid anywhere In the country They pit k horses by the I'hlnear system the hat pin system, the pretty name eyotem. the hunch system. the my barber told me system and sc orea of others Just ar futile It has been auggeeted that metropolitan tracks owe their tremend oua patronage to the fait that tens ot thousands of New Yorkers are curious to find out what a horse looks like wlthoiU a traffic policeman riding him or without a milkwagon behind him They know nothing about the various stablea. or the jockeys. or the blood lines, or the trainers, or the distance, or the times or the past performances. or apy of the things that are important to a true horse lover. There is no more kinship between a crowd at Churchill Downs, say. and one at Empire City or A-iue dud. than there is between Curie Sam and Aim: Jemima That s why I say I am surprised that some one has not started raring mules oe other animals Hay you started a mule track It would be much more profitable Farmers would bring In their mules and race for very small purses being as mules are not as expensive to maintain aa thoroughbred horses There would be no need for etpert and expensive riders, or for highpowered trainers The fact that the mules took three or four minutes to run a mile wouldn t make one bit of difference to your average Naw York race track devotee He would only be gr-attfied and feel that be was getting more for his money than he did at a horse truck where the races are over so qatckly Speaking of times. I have always maintain ed the New York trucks could flash a new world's record after every claiming race and that only a few persons would question the validity id It To make the mule track a complete success you could eliminate the seventh race and put in roulette. with names of horses instead st numbers oa the wheel This would give your New York "home lover" a chance to get even for the day without havtag to bother about the unpredictable esaAieti of the four legged mails
