Shakespeare had the inside and tn
horses got off very even on the secon
trial. Arlington at once took the lea
and soon drew to the inside an
opened a wide gap and passed tn
score on the first round, considerabl
in advance of his competitor. Th
track was very dusty and heavy, whic
began to tell on Arlington befor

last half mile, and the home stretc
was commended bravely, but the scor
was reached with Shakespeare half
, neck ahead, giving him the fri
money. Shakespeare was driven b
Tom BrittoD, and we never saw bill
behave so we'll. He never made
skip. Arlington broke once, but los
nothing thereby.

the rules of the turf, but varied thei
exercises, occasionally, by short run
and came home close together, Tan.
