TARAL'S BIG LUCK,
How He Rode Ramapo to
Victory.
HE WON THE SUBURBAN.
Three Famous Triumphs for One
Jockey.
HE WON THE SUBURBAN.
HOLDS THE TURF RECORD NOW.
Gone to Ride in the American Derby
With the Favorite as His
Mount.

NEW YORK, June 21.-Suburban day
came in hot, but before the first race was
run the breeze from the land died out, and
just as the horses went to the post cool
breeze from the sea made the heat trifle
more bearable, although it was still too
warm TO move about The attendance
was about %, 000-by no means as great as
on Brooklyn handicap day at Gravesend.
but still there was an uncomfortable
crowd. There was a long delay at the
post. and finally They're off, was heard,
and they were. Nearly 2 minutes and
seconds elapsed. and Taral drove Ramapo
to the head of the lot. with Banquet hang
ing on like grim death to his saddleskirts.
The crowd rushed to the jockey-stand and
Taral was carried off to his room. He
was out of his silks in few seconds, it
seemed, and then before the race had
been over ten minutes was out of the
grounds on his way to Chicago to ride
Domino in the American Derby. His face
was wreathed in smiles, as he had won
the triple event and in good style.
The delay at the post spoke Of jockeying
for place. Griffin. always quick boy to
get off, rushed 10 the front Immediately
with Kinglet, but he only got length
away when Banquet shot out after
him, followed by RamapO. Pickpocket and
Henry of Navarro. The pace was not
pushed, Griffin taking hold of Kinglet's
head and reaching the quarter post in 251S
seconds. length in front OF Banquet.
Ramapo and Henry of Navarro next. all
lengths apart.
The pace Quckened trifle after leaving
the quarter post, but KiRglet still led by
length at the half. which was reached In
51A seconds, Banquet second, Tapped to
the head By Ramapo. Pickpocket and
Henry of Navarro being close up. Kinglet
then began TO tire, he having performed
his duty Of pacemaker for his stable COM
panion Ramapo in clever style.
Passing the three-quarter pole game old
Banquet made a brave bid for victory
and taking the lead from Kinglet showed
the way into the homestretch, but only on
sufferance. as Jockey Fred Taral seeing
Klnglet gave it up went to work on
Ramapo and with giant strides the fav-
orite slowly but surely overhauled Ban
queL while Sir Walter forged into third
place. Sport coming up fast.
All through the homestretch 1t was an
easy thing for Ramapo, who woneasily by
a length. The vast throng of excited race
goers threw their hats and handkerchiefs
about in token of admiration for the VIC
tor. Banquet, whipped and spurred, but
all to no purpose, so far as the first money
was concerned, struggled into second
place. three lengths before Sport, with
Henry of Navarro and Perkins back in the
ruck. The time, 2:06 Is. is very fast time
for Sheepshead Bay track. The mile was
run in :40R. after which the pace fell off.
Kinglet had them leg weary during the
first part of the journey. leaving his stable
companion to win the rich prize for Gideon
