Judge had been let up in his work during the last

Gated that their statements were correct Judge
Morrow after running we'll for mile, was not able
10 finish with the thoroughly seasoned and hardened
stockton, who beat him easily. And yet Judge
Morrow's class carried him into second place at that
some time in ideal state of existence when racing
is conducted in a genuinely upright and honorable
manner and not chiefly for the promotion Of cutthroai
gambling no and no trainer will be allowed u
start a horse week after having phySicked him
and without any expectation that the horse will win.
but simply with the intention OF getting better betting
against other horse in the that he backs,
with the hope Of getting weight of in future handicaps
Unless the Monmouth Park Handicapped is snEulary
obtuse. this little trick Of starting Judge Morrow
when he not fit to race viii not avail in getting
one ounce of the weight put upon this colt in future
ha2dicaps.
The rain Of Thursday night at Monmouth was much
heavier than it in Ncw-York The track had

slow time for such course this. II the track had
been in the condition Of Thursday Ambulance could
hardly have been beaten in the Tyro stakes. she was
strong favorite but, has been said a great many
times, she is at loss on track which
is al all sticky. Her running was far below
her usual form. She a poor third, and the finish
was confined 10 Strathmeath and Bolero 1t was 50

beat Bolero by only. Russell was ridden by

swerved all over the track, and after the race WI,

out Of the saddle and almost over the fence. But

inudicious 10 intust the riding Of ill-tempcred,

Russell ought not to be started at all or
he ought 70 be ridden by a Jockey with plenty Of
