Off; but in q moment, up went American Girl who
was very rank IN her scoring. and she lost three
lengths before she settled Judge Fullerton trotted
three lengths ahead OF the Girl: and as they turned
into the lower turn which is the fast part of the
track Fullerton had the best oil 1t by three lengths
American Girl encroached little on the gap as
they passed around the lower turn; and, as Judge
Fullerton went by the half-mile pole in l:0sa4,
American Girl was only two lengths behind him.
Up the backsfretch Fullerton showed the way; and,
