CLOSING BLOOD
HORSE RACING.
Three Strong Fav0rites Reward
Their Backers.
Acclaim Has Walkover-Pe scador, Almont,
FL Rayo and John Treat Run First Un-
der the Winning Wire.

For the closing day Of the Blood-horse Asso-
ciation's fall meeting the weather distributor
served his very best article OF climate. No fiuer
DAY, either for racing or for favorably mpressing
Eastern visitors, has been had for many Steele
Inc track was In fine order and The attendance
the best Of the meeting. On gate receipts alone
the association is well ahead Of all previous
records.
Acclaim, the crack three.year- old of the Coast,
galloped over for The first number on the card,
the Vestal stakes, and added an easy few hun
dred dollars TO the credit Of George Kennedy's
bank account there being no other fly OF her
age that dared contest her supremacy.
Some second Glass two-year-olds came out for
No. on the programme, a six and bali furlong
spin. which Pescador won, thanks 10 a start that
gave him three lengths the best Of II, In l 30 25.
The timers apparently went back again TO a fifth
fractional lime.
Joe Nsrvaez has learned lots about riding
while East this year, and rode The Coast race OF
his HE on Almoni for the one and three. quarters
miles race. wherein AlmOnt, an aged horse, gave
idaho Chlef, four-year-old, % pounds. Almont
tlfeG IN Inc Stretch but came again under Mar.
FaeZs bulldog riding and won the race amid
much excitement by head. Had any other
Jockey but Narvaez had the mount Amont
the CHIEF wOnld have won, and the hackers Of
the favorlte only saved their money by The riding
III Rayo was the best Of a lot Of tenth rate
craDs IN the mile run, and steered again by Mar.
Vaez, who out1ockeyed and outrode the others,
won little more money for the favorite- players.
1t was only question of whether John Treat,
the Old gray Shiloh geldiDg, would break down
or not uilng The runs for the tbree-quarter mile
aud repeat, for his hackers TO win OF lose their
money. He stood IN in good shape aud rOmped
IN easily for each run. The judges were very
vlgiant throughout the meeting about horses
peing RIDDEN out for each heat IN heat races, but
In THIS event they seemed only to look at the first
and second places In the first section OF the race
Howeyer II was the last DAY of the meeting and
also me last race, and possibly they were anxious
to get through with their duties.
