LADY Woodruff looked uncommony well yesterday and
her erds very hopeful Of success they backed
her freely at about two to against Pathen about
i've to agant BroEn Dick, who waa thought to be
entirely out Of his element In two mile heats. The Lady
was very stiff in her shoulders after the first heat,
which may have been caused by the hardness
! Of the track; yet she seems 10 trot faster
| on hard track than any other owing
probably TO her great weight and her DISLIKE to extend
Ing herself soft ground, the case in her race
on the Fashion Course week or tro ago. Toe mare,
however, did not chow any stiffness after she got away
and the time made shows that she rotted very not
wi;hstandpg her numerous breaks. Dick looked foe,
and in the second heat trotted very WELL but We know
