There was little In the racing at Jerome Park

more than $500 persons were present TO see the

furlongs over the straight course was worse than
no race at all, as Galilee and Rubicon were with.

Punch TO beat at weight for age. stonenell could
have carried 200 pounds more and beaten Mr..
Ningut's little colt, aud there was no speculation
on the event. The weather was autumnal, with
no trace of the promised cyclone in sight.
Rubicon, despite his 1925 pounds, was consld-
cred the surest of sure winners In the opening
dash for all ages over the six-furlong course,

to run second. Halton ran an astonishingly
game race, and Rubicon was forced to do his
best In order TO win by thrre-quarters Of n
length. Taral rode Black Hawk, and did not
succeed In getting any more speed out Of the
black colt than Griffin had on his last race.
