so far for the race.
Around the turn they flashed with
very little jos;ling, for so sharp turn
and SO narrow track, and then the
half-mile mark was reached, and they
were Strengthened out for the run
through the back stretch. DIR. Rice was
anead. in front of Copyright, and thus
far very few inches only had separated
their noses as they ran side by side so
closely that blanket would have cov-
cred both. Two lengths behind was
Henry of Navarro, head in front of
Herald. and ali running easily. Bitten
was still hanging on to fifth place in
good style. while Doggett thought it
was about time to bring Sir Walter up,
and he was sixth at the half-nile.
Comanche was still in the seventh
place, Banquet had fallen back to the
eighth and Ajax was beginning to hold
out signals of distress in ninth. Basset-
law and Diablo followed. and Sport and
Clifford were far in the rear, unable to
gain au inch on the flying field.
They passed the three-quarter mark
with Henry of Navarro in the lead. a
head in front of Copyright, with DIR.
Rice within striking distance and Taral
handling him in mastery fashion.
Sir Walter was fourth and Bassetlaw
was becoming dangerous. for he had
moved uD five pegs aud looked good for
much more. Comanche was sixth, BAN
Quet seventh and Diable eighth. The
mile was covered by Henry of Navarro
in 1:42, and he was head in front of
DR.. Rice, who had come up. Copyright
had dropped back to sixth, Sir Walter
was a length behind DIR. Rice and two
lengths ahead of Bassetlaw. who was
still very much in tie race. The others
were running in the order that they
passed the three quarter pole and COM
pletely out of it.
Into the stretch the horses flew, Sir
Walter and Bassetlaw getting whip and
spur. DR.. Rice began to wear down
the gallant three-year-old. and, driving
with hands and feet, Clayton was urg-
Ing on Navarro to his utmost, but his
horse was stopping fast under him.
Bassetlaw was hanging on to Sir
Walter, with Comanche close behind.
The frantic yells from the crowd, and
as the watch ticked 2:G714, Dr.. Rice, the
cast-off from the Gideon & Daily stable,
flashed under the wire length Ill front
Henry of Navarro, with the great Sir
Walter one and a half lengths behind
and two lengths in front of Bassetlaw.
Comanche was fifth and the others any
where. all in the stretch.
Hats went into the air, and for the
second year in succession Taral was
placed in the floral Jockeys chair and
carried off by the crowd.
1t was a true run race and we'll won.
Lowlander was not a factor.and Clifford
and Sport, owing to the faulty start,
were not given chauce to show their
work.
