SARATOGA, Aug. 1s.-Eastern people had a
chance to see clifford in his true form at the
races here to-day. II was in the race for the Moet
and Chandon Stakes, q mile handicap. in which
he met and defeated Rsmapo, the winner of the
Metropolitan and Suburban.; the great Western
race mare Yo Tambien, President wallaum's
good handicap horse Lamplighter. and four
others. A crowd fully as large n not larger
than that Of last Saturday was at the track, the
out-of-town contingent being exceptionally
large. as the card was as good a one on paper as
has been on for decision anywhere this season.
The handicap was the fourth race, and was
the medium of n large amount of betting, as
Ramapo, who was a slight favorite, Clifford. Yo
Tambien, and Bamplighter were all well played,
the talent being very much divided In opinion
as to the merits Of the big four that ran. Yo
Tambien was conceding weight TO everything in
the race, and was ridden by Jordan, but that did
not prevent the Western people from p~lunging
on her. The task assigned her was too great =
one, however, and she was beaten very handily.
starter Caldwell got the horses away together,
with Ramapo, Yo Tambien. and Clifford on the
inside rail and Lamplightcr on the outside Of
the track. There was a lot Of crowding In the
rush to the nrst turn, for which the riders Of
Restraint and Aurclian were to blame, Ramapo
being the principal sufferer, as in the messing
he was knocked back from second TO last place
When this was all over Aurelian was in front

to last. and that was where Martin

Peacemaker got the place by u length from West
Shore, and ran q very creditsble race. Henry
