Abstract
"Dates for the two big running races of the Washington state fair -- the Washington Derby and the Spokane Handicap -- were announced Friday by Secretary John W. Pace. The Washington Derby will be run Tuesday, September 27, over a mile and one-eighth course for a purse of $1,000. The entries on this race are limited to three olds or you and will be closed September 1, the horse having to be named by the 15th of the month. The Spokane day handicap for a purse of $500 will be run Friday September 30 over a mile course. The race has been placed on Spokane day because of the special train of Spokane businessmen which will be here on that day."
