that this Jockey has pulling certain horses Of con
siderable reputation In several races at ms meeting

rests over little Lamey but that is dark enough.
Patrol judges are indispensable. 20 are ehergouo'

moss Of n hoary and petraed antiquity has been
thoroughly scraped OF.
Until these necessary officials with tho necessary

betting against Prince George opened at to j. and
rose TO 10 /. Prince George had plenty OF speed
In the first huff mile, but Instead OF going out with
him, and getting long lead. as Tarai did on Sep
TENDER L., Lamey kept Inn under pull on the
lower turn The result was that Prince George,
victor over Ajax at even weights September IL,
was unplaced, Ajax winning the race, with the
favoritc, the Moync gclding second, and the out
sider Spartan, third The Moyne geding IS very
fast two-year-od with nsA weight, but perhaps he
did not fancy ZIG pounds. However, sims rode him
with poor judgment, and a better Jockey might
probably have won with him.
When Lepano wins, rule he wins by running
away from his Held from start to finish In the fifth
race yesterday little lamley, for some mysterious
reason, kept him behind Aloha for six furongs, al
though Aloha carrying ia pounds while Lepanto
carried only 80. When finally Lamley permitted L.

him that Tom Rogers got up in the honestretch and
won the race. Tom Rogers had been beaten In so
many that the Handicapped put on'y % pounds

Bergen rode W. C. Days horse Cynosure In the last
race. Dablo was marked favcrite lut Cynosur,
