passing the three-quarter pole, when he was
overhauled by Crown Prince, who came In
two lengths ahead, in 2:2eA. After elaboration
the judges gave the heat to Grown Prince Camors
broke down on the homestretch, and Doble could
not whip him into decent gait. 1t was asserted
that he had been drugged previous to the trot but
there was no foundation for the report.
