IT'S meeting yesterday, the weather being mder and
mere enjoyable than before, the track in finer con-
dtion, the attendance large, and the racing OF ex
ceptional quality and interest The only unhappy
people were the bookmakers. who were massacrcd in
. pftess manner Public form was justified com
'pletely both In first and second places in several

management was even successful than on pre-

that it was possible to get tempting odds as IL

place. when the colt was good second in the Nur-
sery Stakes But this in part explained by the
fact that the stable put up the little known and I'M
popular tot Of jockey, Freeman. Yet this little
atom in the saddle handled the colt fairly WELL and
Heyday beat the whole of the field, with the excep-
ton of Diablo as easily Diablo beat him.
