Royal john Cudney's bay gcding whalebone Nor
cross chestnut geding License and Goldsmith's bay
mare Huntress. or these Whalebone Royal John
and License did not start and IL was looked upon az
so sure victory for Huntress that there was but
little betting before the start, Huntress being
favOrite 800 to $50 against the Others
FIRST Hedt-Susle had the pole Huntress second
and Sea Foam outside: the horses scored half
dozen times before they were sent or the Judges
being anxious to give neither advantage. Susie
went to the front as they made the journey down to
the turn, Huntress second and Sea Foam next. Well
three OF her peculiar jumps and after she got
on even terms with Susie and went Tapped to the
na IN o Around S ntn tine turn Sea Foam
finish, Susie won the heat by half length, Sea
Foam length ahead OF lIuntress. Time, 2:25.
Second Heot-Huntress continued a favOrite In
the pools. The mares were sent Off the first time
they came for the word and Susie showed
turn was reached Hnntress took the
pole and opened length to the quarter;
Sea Foam took the second place. and the favorite
straight side Sea Foam forced the pace around the
upper turn, and all the way down the homestretch,
crossed the score an open length ahead but the
heat was given to Sea Foam, in 2:26
Third Heat-Huntress was still favorite In the
pools and on the word being given she went to the
front, followed closely by Susie and sea Foam At
the quarter Huntrcss had two lengths the best OF
1t, Susie In the second place. On the back side
Sea Foam made one of her bad breaks, and when

third, inside the distance having trotted the last
quarter quite fast.

place as soon as the word was given, Josie next to
her and Sea Foam in the rear. length separated
Huntress from Josie at the quarter, but at the
half-mile pole they were Tapped together, Hun.
tress still keeping slight lead, by the aid OF
her jumps. Around the upper turn Susie outfooted

both the others; at the head OF the stretch they
all together, but Suse the heat. Hun
tress was set back and the place given to Sea
Foam. Time, 2:26b.
Firh Hedt.-This was not very closely contested
heat. Apparently all Susie and Huntress wished TO
do was to keep Sea Foam In the rear, at least so 1t
looked to outsiders, and apparently to the judges,
for after Susie had beat Huntress out length,
and with Sea Foam well up they consulted to-
gether some time before they gave the heat to
Susie, with Iluntress second. The following Is
