Show COMPETITION TOO KEEN FOR JUAKfcZ Colonel Matt J. Winn, vihu manages the race track at .Juarez, la anything but pleased with the winter meeting at his track, for it lias been more or less of a failure. During the time when the New Orleans track was shut out of the game and Hot Springs no longer a mecca for the runners. run-ners. Juarez was looked upon by Colonel Winn as an ideal spot, and he succeeded in forming a stock company to build a fine t rack, which is st ill accounted one of the best in the country. For several seasons the Juarez track made money, and every prospect for its success was ! bright. j And then camo the blow. New ( )r-leans )r-leans was reopened and the. cream of the stables of most of the big owners was quartered and raced in the Crescent city. Horsemen naturally prefer a city which has attractions boasted of by New Orleans, Or-leans, and it appears thaL from now on the J uarez meetings will continue to be failures unless some "first, aid" scheme is cooked up by Colonel Winn and his associates as-sociates to lure the horsemen back. |
