aged, by imported Payton, - Lightning.
r. Shea entered b. b. Duke Of Kent, four
years old, by Bonny Scotland, - Fannie
Barrow.
In the pool Keno and the Duke of Kent
were the favorites, the former horse selling
in some pools at slightly the advance on the
Duke, though the b. b. had many strong
hackers a fine start was made, and the
nags swept into the turn in bunch. Harry
PAXTON ran well for the first half mile, when
he threw up his tail and dropped behind,
Keno, Duke OF Kent and W. K. running to-
gether. At the three quarter Duke took the
lead, though well pressed by Keno, and the
run home was good, Duke winning by full
| length; Keno second, w. K. third, Harry
| Payton way behind. Time 149.
An intermission Of half an hour was al
lowed before the next closing race. There
were four entries, as will be seen below,
and the money of the betters lay between
Bonuy Castle and Pride, with possibly the
| odds slightly in favor OF the former. The
| pools showed Bonny as the fsvorite at first,
| but before the commencement of the race
| Pride became first choice and brought more
money King Dutchman had some back
| ers, but he and Tom Montague were con-
sidered in the ield. At quarter to five the
entries were called to the track, and the
| Jockeys carefully weighed, this matter in
| selling race being of considerable impor-
| lance. The race was mile heats, best two
in three, and was as follows:

First Heat.-A start was effected without
trouble, and the horses got off well, Pride
/
entering the turn BonnY Castle took the lead,
King Dutchman securing the second place,
and Pride, passing Montague, got the third
position, thus making a string which was
maintained without change until the last
quarter was neared, when Pride overlook
King Dutchman and made for Bonny Cas-
tie, and the three we're nearly In bunch as
they showed at the head of the home
stretch. The race down was exciting, but
was won by BonDy Castle, clearing the
string half length ahead, Pride second,
Kirg Duichman third, and Montague
fourth. Time 1:50.
Second Heat.-A very satisfactory start
was obtained, Montague taking the lead,
Bonny Castle second, Pride and Dutchman
being together-very little change through
out the mile until the break for the home
stretch was made, and lively race ensued
between Montague and Castle, Dutchman
being passed by Pride. Both Bonny Castle
and Tom Montague apparently were on
their best in the final run, and they passed
the Judges stand amidst the most enthusiast
tic applause, Castle leading by a neck,
Montague second, Pride third. Dutchman
distanced. Time 1:4S%.
