The start was very good, Fellowcraft being OF
nrst, Artist second, Booster third, stanford
fourth, Minnie Mac fifth, Red Dick hliy sixth, the
Others close up. They ratified up the home stretch
at racing pace, Artist leading to the stand Sur
vivor second, Minnie Mac third, Stanford fourth,
Carib00 fifth, Fellowcrat sixth, Mate seventh, Red
Dick flip eighth, Boaster ninth. Artist and Sur
vivor ran close together around the upper turn and
passed the quarter pole close together the former
showing the way, Stanford third Mate fourth.
Minnie Mac dfth, CaribOo, sixth, the others follow
ing few lengths apart, the pace being too sharp
for them to keep up with the leaders. The horses
then passed out OF sight, and when they appeared
again on the lower turn Artist led neck, Sur
vivor second two lengths ahead OF Mate, Fellow
craft fourth, Minnie Mac fifth, Cariboo sixth,
stanford seventh the Red Dick Oily eighth,
B0aster ninth. After passing the three-quarter
pole Survivor ran to the front, and, coming
on gallantly with the game little Artist at
his saddle skirts, most exciting ana spirited
contest only terminated at the stand by Survivor
winning by neck Three lengths behind Artist
came Nate half length ahead OF Fellowcrat,
Cariboo fifth, Stanford sixth, Minnie Mac seventh,
the Red Dick fly eighth and Boaster ninth.
Time, 2:17 The victory OF Survivor gave severe
shock to the hackers of Mate, whom they supposed
to be fnvncible under any circumstances after his
gallant race with True Blue at Saratoga last sum-
mer. They did not calculate the extra weight he
had to carry IN such dangerous company nor as
certain his condition In fact. they wagered their
money blindly and paid the penalty.

Sherman then sailed match with the Osceolo and
beat the latter easily.
