The Freehold Stakes was. for many reasons.
the race Of the day. Montana and I1aceland
were Withdrawn. leaving Banquet. Poet Scout
Ienny. and the three-year- Locohatchee to
try conclusions at even weights. Jockey Gar

contestant. but the withdrawal Of the Sub

always be had against the fnvorite Poet Scout
Locohatchee and Banquet selling almost even
second choices. with Tenny the outsider. Poet
Scout was the picture Of a racehorse. and ms
for Banquet and Locohatchcc two or three
hard races every week seems to be
the tonic they require to keep them on razor
edge. Tenny looked well. but went short in
his preliminary. There was no delay at tho
