Brookdale Handicap Robbed Of All Inter.
est by Numerous Scratches.


NEW YORK May 2s-Sir Walter and Dr. Rice
were not sent TO the post in the Brookdale
handicap, which gave Don Alonzo a practical
waikover, and before the last race was over q
heavy thunderstorm came up and everybody
departed in bad humor well drenche6- Because
of Ed kearney's victory over Don Alonzo or May
10 he was well supported, while the other two
starters were nbbled ut kcarney set the pace
followed by Lowlander, Don Alonzo, and Roller
After the first quarter had been run + i-earney
boi.ed TO the outer rail- and tried 10 siinlo the
fence all the way Up the back stretch When
within sixteenth of the finish Roller came
strongly, and nearly caught Sims mapping. 4
few digs with the spurs and Don AlonZo shot
ahead like arrow, winning with ease
Rubicon was strong fayorite in the opening
race, and won in commanding style. There WAS
a good contest for second place between Armi-
tage and La Misere, and the formers Jockey
landed him second by the shortest of noses.
Watterson showed that his race of Saturday had
done him good, and he rated along un.il the
stretch was reached in the second race and won
with scarcely the semhlance of an effort Peter
the Great was the favorite, but could not get up
a respectable gailop Herkimer was made the
favori.e in the third race, but tho ridiculous
delay o; forty minutes at the post old not do him
any good and the best he could do was second
TO q long shot in Scarlet.
