strong. and he tipped the string winner OF
the heat in l :47l.
Second Heat.-Fe!ter did not strip well, as
he showed up rather dry, although his wind
was unimpaired. Sweet Bay seemed trim and
ready for four mile heat, judging from the
way she cooled of. Denver was Withdrawn by
consent Of the judges, on account OF his
lameDess. After three false starts they got
of, the Voucher gelding leading.
At the first quarter, Sweet Bay and Felter
had crep. forward, Leonard length behind

passed first by neck, Felter second, Leonard
third, in So seconds.

Leonard closing up, but Sweet Bay showed
her mettle and dashed down the home stretch
and under the string a winner of the heat,
one and a half lengths ahead; Leonard Sec
ond, Felter third. Time, 1:46a.
Third Heat-A large crowd gathered in the
cooling ground to scrutinize the horses. Sweet
Bay had evidently been sweated too much,
and betters had some hesitancy in placing
their money on her. In the start the mare
led. closely followed by Port, Felter last. Port
and Sweet Bay had it neck and neck at the
first quarter, Felter at their heels, making it

and they passed under the string, Sweet Bay
three lengths ahead, under pull, Leonard
second, the Boone horse last. Time, 1:49.

this heat. Leonard not h wing won heat was
sent to the stables. and the contest was now
between Sweet Bay and Felter. When stripped
they showed up well, the mare having some
the advantage. An even start was effected,
but the mare on the turn drew away and
passed the quarter leading in ~ seconds; the
same positions were maintained down to the
home stretch, and Felter drew away from the
mare. Notwithstanding she was under the
whip. Felter took the heat in :4S.
Fifth Heat.-Large amounts Of money were
now staked, as both the contestants had won
two heats each. In the pools they sold even,
and betters were lively. A good start was
made, Sweet Bay having slight advantage,
but Felter at the first quarter passed hun,
and on the back-stretch there was a severe
struggle. On the turn Sweet Bay led
length, but in the home-stretch Feiter closed
up, taking the track and lead, dashed under
the string winner OF this severe struggle in
1:4Sa.
