the fastest time recorded on this
track this season. but she needed urg-
ing. ana this was an element that Is to
tally absent III little MagnuseA. All he
could do was 10 give the mare her head
and let her come 10 the finish as she
pleased. a Ortiz had the best Jockey

made a holy show OF herself. She
frailed laZiiy the entire distance.

TO the post al . TO l. while FL PasO'S
odds were TO l. The distance does not
suit Calhoun very well. He seldom
extends himself in so short a race, but
he had gntten up winning speed III the
quarter stretch, and the Judgment is
that he would nave pulled out

Williams wild and reckless riding
He pulled Coda around until she col
