A COLT WINS A BIG RACE.
An Unnamed Out Of Sunbeam Bags
the Realization Stakes.

Garrison Roundly Scored by Foxhau
Keene For Failing 20 Land st. Leon
Ards the Winner-The Winner of the
Chicago Derby Finishes Next to
the Last Horse.
New York, July THE realization
stakes contested for at the course Of the
Coney Island Jockey Club at Sheepshead
bay to-day, was won by Brown 81 Rogers
Unnamed, colt, by Troubadour out of Sun
beam, after a most exciting finish, with
James r. and Foxhall Keene's St. Leon
ards. Sir Walter was third, while
Boundless, the western crack and
winner of the American Derby, was
badly beaten, finishing next to last and
ten lengths back. Garrison rode an ill
judged race on st. Leonard's laying too
far out of the race in its first stages, and
riding directly contrary to orders The
Messrs. Keene were justly angered at the
conduct of the jockey and plainly told
him so, when he returned to the stables
BIG CROWD OUT.
The beautiful weather and fine pro-
gramme presented, induced large crowd
to attend the races and the management
declared that it was the biggest day of
the meeting, barring Saturday, and long
before the bugler called the horses to the
post in the first race, not a seat could be
had in the lower stand, while the lawn
was a solid mass of humanity.
The track was in superb shape.
The race was the fifth on the pro
gramme, and the crowd took little inter
est in the first four races, as far as look
ing at them was concerned. The victories
of Lifeboat and Hornpipe caused little
enthusiasm, except among those who had
tickets on the winners.
IN THE BETTING RING.
After the fourth race the crowd made
a rush for the betting ring to pick the
winner of the realization. St. Leonards
was installed as the favOrite by the
| bookies, even money being his opening
price. Boundless, which had come from
the west to do battle with the eastern
champions, was the second choice.
| The horses went to the post shortly
after o'clock and after few minutes
delay got away at the first break to a
| beautiful start. Sir Walter and Ramapo
| had slight advantage, but Accident i'm
Passing the stand Accident was still in
| front setting slow pace a head in front
of BOundless, a length before the Sun
| beam colt. Garrison had taken his mount
well in hand and was six lengths behind
| the leaders. Boundless at this point was
under a stout pull and looked as if he
| could gallop over the moon The order as
| given above was maintained clear into the
middle of the back stretch.
RIDICULoUsLY SLOW PACE.
The pace thus far had been ridicuIously
| slow, being in fact, little better than ex-
erCise gallop, and one shrewd horseman
near the press stand remarked that the
| 'best Splinter in that crowd will win -
! Nearing the back stretch, Sir Walter had
| been laying fifth, and st. Leonards moved
/ up rapidly and joined the leaders and the
! racing began in earnest AS the pace
| quickened Accident dropped rapidly from
| the front to the rear where he evidently
! finished
Boundless, also had enough just before
the turn for home was made. A groaI
went up from his thousands of hackers
| and admirers as he was seen to falter
and drop to the rear. Sir Walter was the
| first in the stretch, but was only by neck
and shoulders. St Leonafds was to the
| right of him, on the side nearest the
| stand and coming rapidly.
| Fer moment the admirers of the Keent
| horse did not notice the bay colt, whose
rider wore the cherry and white stars OF
| Brown & Rogers, and they gave vent tC
| shouts of exultation.
sUNBEAM's GREAT FINISH.
Their cries, however, died almost al
| their birth, for the next instant it was
seen that the Sunbeam colt had passed
| simultaneously with their favorite and in
l Il Ia Il,
| sat down and rode his hardest, but Sims,
! also n master hand at finish, was
| his opponent on the Sunbeam colt,
and would not be gainsaid A curl
Gus and highly exciting finish ensued
| through the entire stretch, but the
| Sunbeam colt held his muzzle in front
with persistency that was CALLING to
| the hackers of St. LeOnards. And so
they passed the wire Sir Walter was
third, three lengths back, head before
Ramapo, who was length before
Boundless, with Accident practically
beaten off.
