Dell Proved n Slayer.
| 1t was impossible to secure good
start with field of ten candidates. The
| result was that three of the horses had
the worst of the word. Bronco and Billie
Gaines and Dell had pretty struggle
up past the club house, and it resulted
in Bronco's going forward and taking
the pole. Dell and Billie Gaines con-
tinued their race for second place down
+ the back stretch. At the end of the
stretch Bronco left his feet and Billie
soon had the pole and two or three
open lengths to his credit. Then Dell
| and Bronco fought it out all around the
turn. Bronco was the speediest. and he
not only beat out Dell, but he swept
past Billie Gaines and logged home with
ease three lengths ahead OF Billie
| Gaines. who was nose in front of Dell.
Indeed, 1t had been pretty race be-
tween the latter two the entire dis
lance of the stretch. Time, 2:301s.
/ Bronco got away first with Billie
Gaines scarcely nose worse off, and
dell was good third, but broke ut the
| club house, and Ollie Games moved up.
At the half Bronco broke badly and
fell back, and Dell took the pole with
good burst of speed, considering the
track; Billie Gaines was third, but he
left his feet and Ollie Gaines passed
him before he settled again. AT the
head of the stretch Bronco came with
rush from eight lengths behind Dell,
Ollie and Billie Gaines and finished
first by half length. Dell second, Ollie
Gaines third and Billie Gaines fourth.
Time, 2:2915.
Bronco broke soon after getting the
word in the third heat, and Dell went to
the front and took the pole. and soon
opened up wide gap over Ollie Gaines
and Billy Gaines. On the back stretch
Bronco settled down TO hard work, and
began desperate trOt to overhaul the
leaders, who were a furlong or more in
advance. The distance was too great
considering the condition of the track.
Still he passed to the second place, but
gave up the battle in the home stretch.
Dell logged in three lengths ahead of
Bronco, who led Billy Gaines four
lengths. Lady Ensign was fourth.
Time, 2:43.
The next heat was uninteresting. The
mud was so deep that the horses and
drivers were completely frescOed, and
|, the rain descended fast and steadily.
The stretch was river. Dell led from
the start to the finish, Bronco second
and Lady Ensign third. Bronco broke
at the quarter and Biddy Boru and Lady
Ensign passed him. Dell opened up
ten lengths down the back stretch. and
it was not until the three-quarters had
been reached that Bronco made an
effort to challenge Dell. who was still
ten lengths in advance. Bronco made a
rush up the stretch, but the mud and
water was too deep. Dell won by a
nose, Bronco second, Biddy BOru third
| and Lady Ensign fourth. Time. 2:43.
The last heat was not only trotted in
Il i u O.Iy ny,I
it was an utter impOssility to follow the
candidates with any certainty around
the circle. Dell rushed to the lead at
the start and held it throughout.
Bronco broke badly as usual, and was
soon away back, but he made Il fierce
! struggle down the homestretch, and
was only defeated by a nose. Dell won
| the heat and race, Bronco second, Billie
| Gaines third and Biddy Boru fourth.
