FLEETWOOD PARK RACE TRACK,
N. Y, Aug. 28.-Azote, Beuzetta and
Klamath came together to-day in the
$4,000 free-for-all at the Grand Circuit trot-
ting meeting. and one of the most notable
and important races in the history of har-
ness racing ensued. Azote opened at even
money in the betting, but the play was so
heavy that he was backed down to to
before the start.
The first heat was ''1uke," Azote win
ming in 2:091a. To another good start
Azote went off in front as before. Coming
UP the hill Azote heightened his lead until
he had five lengths to spare at the head of
the home stretch. Mcdowell eased him in
the last furlong, and he finished with
speed in reserve in 2:05H. Beuzetta,
driven out in hopeless chase, trotted the
mile in 2:064, and Klamath dropped just
inside the distance post.
The announcement of the time was
greeted with enthusiastic cheering, as it
was the best time ever made by harness
horse on the Fleetwood track, and beat the
record by more than a second. Prior to
Azote's fast mile the mark stood at 2:O6A
made by Nancy Hanks in 1893. The third
heat was conceded to Azote, who won
again without sign of effort, trotting the
mile in 2:07.
