Mary Cobb next made trial heat to beat
2:134. She was accompanied by,a runner
but broke after passing the starter and WAS
pulled down almost to walk. She walked
around the track and was given another
start. She made the first quarter in 3215,
half in :06 and the mile in 2:15, the fastest
heat she has ever trotted by ~ seconds.
During the time Maxy Cobb was trotting
Winship and matewere warmed mp
After circling the track once or twice the
pair came down the stretch, and Jim Golden
nodded forward, when the pair were sent
away in good style. Winship trotted around
the turn in faultless style, though his mate,
Gabe Case, was tagging little. Up to the
quarter they went in 800 without hitch
of any kind. Once in the straight Golden
cut the trotter loose and then the gait
was forced up. Although Winship was
/ doing most of the work and seemed
: to be pulling the runner he was at the half in
! the unprecedented time of 1:0l55, 2:03
gait. Here Golden began to hold Winship
Tor the finish, and the runner was allowed to
do little work around the upper turn. The
third quarter was covered in l ;34115 and then
the team swung into the stretch for the clos
ing struggle. Down they came, Winship
pulling his mate so that Golden had to put
the whip to the runner to keep him up
to his work, Whshp trotting evenly as clock
work, and as he came under the wire in mag
niticent form shout rose even on the
ind a.,1 IN In.
which greeted the announcement OF the
| time, 2:06, was deafening. Thus Winship
and mate have accomplished the wonderful
feat of reducing by ~ second the famous
record of 2:0615 made by Frank and mate.
The next attempt was that of Phallas to
beat his own record of 2:l33(, the best mile
ever made by d stallion. He was accom-
/ panied by a runner, and after being sent
away be trotted splendidly to the quarter,
which he made in 3314 He increased in speed
on the back stretch, but when about half of
it was covered he Broke, but was caught
almost instantly by Bithers, and then set
! tied down to splendid work. He reached the
half in 1:07T little Slow but on
the upper turn he heightened out
/ his stride, passing the three-quarters
in 1:421l. He made a splendid
dash down the stretch and finished in 2:15.
He did not come up to expectations in this
heat, but Bithers was still confident he could
beat the record, and after being rubbed down
he came out for another trial. This time he
showed up in splendid form and trotted to
the quarter in 324. He lost a little in going
to the half, which he made in 1:06I. He
did some splendid trotting around the turn
and down the stretch passing under the
wire in 2:13M, equaling his old record,
although he was unable to lower it,
The final event was an exhibition mile by
Rockefeller's trotting team, Day Drum and
Enchantress, which had never been driven a
mile before in double harness. Day Drum
has record of :21M and Enchantress of
1854. They were driven by j. P. Hilbert,
manager Of Rockefeler's stables, and COM
pleted the circuit in 2:2115 to road wagon.
