The rain had put the track in very bad con-
dition in several places, and at IL M. much
doubt was felt as to the advisability Of at
tempting to carry out the racing programme.
BY vigorous soraping, however, aided by the
warm sun, the track was got into u fairly pass
able condition, and at 2:30 o'clock the
horses for the 9 43 class were called
up. There were five entries but
only two appeared for the start,
Billy Boy and Mambrino Prince. With
agood track these horses would have made
driver felt justified i'll putting his horse to his
speed. The result was that Billy Boy won the
race easily, taking the first, third and fourth
heats. Time: 2:45, 2:4l, 2:3711l, 2:43.
Great Eastern, the LeViathan of the turf
was then brought out for an exhibition trot
under saddle. Before starting, the judges an
nounced that Mr. Green only allowed the horse
to appear to satisfy the curiosity of the crowd,
and that, owing to the condition of the
track, no effort would be made
to make time. To make the exhibition as ex-
citing as possible, Mr.. Chapman Smales, of the
Fairmont Hlnt, rode his hurdle racer by the
81 4, Of Great Eastern, thus making very good
race, though the time was slow. It was un-
fortunate Tor the audience, the reputation If
the horse, and above all to Mr.. Green, who de-
sired to show his appreciation of the generous
and honorable treatment of the association, by
giving the best exhibition of speed ever seen
OF the track. The horse was in fine condition
for such an exhibition, and only the condition
of the track prevented.
Decidedly the most interesting feature of the
afternoons racing sport, vas {. mile dash kind
