The above result was not reached

,ho drivers and various examinations of
,aonosed 4 year olds by the committee.
rba result. however, was to give the
.scopd money to Lambert.
THE DOUBLE TEAM RACE
r,s rather thinly disguised by calling it
, matched horse competition, Sin which
.oocd alone was to be considered. With
nj. view of the case the entries were
arr Mr.. Harrlgan, with a black and
white drawing first place, the Baxter
team of bays second, VIM. Robertson
hrl Mr. Finchs black mares fourth.
The send off for the first heat was only
rained after four attempts, with Harri-
lap in front, position which he held
orly TO the first turn, when he broke and
III the Baxter bays in. This was viz
naIIy the end of the heat as Danforth
.ont the G. neral's team along to win,
and it was clear that he could outspeed
the rick vcrv easily. The position at
hp half was about the same as at the
close, the only question being whether
rba last two teams would be shut out.
The Judges, however, did not care to
make this decision.
In the second heat the Baxter team
took the lead easily and leftthe others as
If standing still, with Finch second at
,he half mile, Harrigan third and Robert
son last. The second half was a repe-
tton of the first, except that Robertson
managed to get second place.
