"a 20 fast enough 70 win. Little Albert
was considered rood for n heat, but
NOT much more thar that. To the sur
prise Of the racing men, he reeled on
the first mile In 2:10. and followed that
I'M with n mile in All. Then he made
n mistake in the home stretch tnat cos,
him his chance 20 win the race In three
straight heats. Walter T.. was so close
ON his heels that the slightest skip was
s,,re IN forfeit the heat, and he at o7ce
10Y advantage OF the eelding's slip.
| rhe fourth heat was won by Walter Er
hacarse he showed himself the better
horse.
| ~nos,fion TO win as Little Albert, but he
lost his stride Just before he reached
the wire and with II the race. Ihe
2.1s trotting race developed some more
unexpected speed. The first heat was
trotted at a mark below that generally
Anticipated, and was won by a horse
that was not even considered dangerous.
Euard had been a strong and steady
f~ayorite from the time the first pool was
GOLD. While Lees Pilot did not have
quite speed enough to win. he gave FL
lard a hard chase, and the bay stallion
had 10 20 at his best in every heat OF
the race. A ~favorite was thrown down
in the race for ~two-year-olds. when Direc-
tors Flower defeated Chris Lang win
ease. The latter was thought TO be
a sure winner upon the form that he had
shown In the circuit races this season,
but Directors Flower trotted the fastest
two-year-old race Of the year and got the
money. The PA pacing race continued
from the day before was won by Hal
billiard. Paul was the ~favorite, and
after the race the judges declared all
pools on the race OF, as they believed
there had been dishonesty In the race.
Paul was supposed to be at fault, and II
is said that steps will be taken to punish
the offenders. Directum trotted a mile
TO beat the record OF Maud s. 70 an old
fashioned sulkey. He went in PA. The
half was made in 104h. n had the
horse not lost his stride the chances are
thai he would have been successful.
There was an enormous attendance.
