Murphy had been gradually improving his
position. Rounding the last turn before
strengthening out, KinglnAn's head was
down, but he seemed not ANXIOUS TO cut
the pace at a liveler speed. He had the
others beat at any time and the only ono
that made q show against him was Bali
Rowan. A furlong from the post King
man was on even terms with Balgowan,
the rest beaten back. The struggle was
brief. Another kink OF Murphy's lines
went out, the whip descended and the
colts response was burst OF speed that
shook the hard whipped and hard ridden
Balgowan off and sent him winner OF tho
