second Race
Mile heats, best three in five, for an Asso-
citation purse Of $500.
After three false starts, Egypt, Arizona
and Granger got off, Granger leading.
When rounding in to the home stretch,
Egypt shot past Granger, closely followed
by Arizona, who made play for and took
the lead, passing under the wire first by a
very short half length, Egypt second and
Granger third. Time-1:4I..
The boys now went to the pool stands,
fully convinced that Tennessee had the best
of the bargain, and the manner in which
the greenbacks were piled up on Arizona
would lead one to believe that there was
no such thing as "h4rd timesIn
Second HeGt.-The horses responded
promptly to Col. COckrill's call, and GOT a
good send Of, Arizona and the Granger side
by side, with Egypt about length behind.
Nearing the three-quarter post, Egyptis rider
turned him loose, and the three started
home well together, but the pace was too
warm for Granger; passing the distance
stand he was a length behind. The Others
went under the string neck and neck, re-
sulting in a dead heat between Arizona
and Egypt. Granger was q fair third.
Time-I:46s.
Third Heat.-After one false start, they
GOT away, Granger leading, Arizona second,
Egypt Ihird. On reaching the halfmile
pole, the gaps had been closed and they
came round the last turn at a tremendous
gate, side by side. 1t proved too fast for
Egypt, and before reaching the distant
stand she relinquished all claim to the
heat, leaving the others TO contest for il;
which they did in gallant style, first one
and the other leading, but Arizona won the
heat by a neck, Granger second and Egyp,
third, four lengths behind. Time, l:49.
Fourth Hedt.-Another good start was
given them, but Egypt refused to run, and
before reaching the first turn she was in a
walk. Granger and Arizona made very
pretty run to the three-quarter pole, when
Arizona forged ahead and came home win
ner Of the heat and race by four lengths,
Granger second and Egypt distanced.
Time, 1:511.
The rider of Egypt was called to the
Staad BY the Judges, who thought there
had been foul play, but the owner said he
was satisfied the boy was not TO blame, and
50 the Judges decided that Egypt was
played cat, so far as that race was con-
cerned. .e-r.-.
