For tho three-year-old 2:27 trotting
class the starters were Auditor, Sidney
Howard, Patti Rosa, Jasper Ayres, Car
RE c., Lottie, Silver Ring, DIR. Puff, STAIN
b. and Zombro. The latter brought $40,
as also did Siam b. and DIR. Puff. The
rest sold in the field for 50.
First heat-Stam b. soon cut out the
work, followed by DIR. Puff and Jasper
Ayres. In this order the circuit of the
track was made. the others all being
strung out. The time was 2:2I. At about
the seven eighths pole great cloud of
dust arose, and the cry went up that some
horse was down. 1t was soon discovered
to be Zom bro. driven by his owner, G. a.
Durtee. Before the hose could gather him
self the leaders were well out of the way,
but Zombro soon came dashing down
the track, Keeping the pole steadily and
the broke sulky flying from his heels at
every jump. AS he passed the grand
stand it was seen that one wheel mad COL
lapsed. Zombro made for the gate lead
ing to the stable ana went safely through
without a collision. lie was found to be
uninjured, and showed up in the next
heat. Durfee himself also escaped in
jury. They were warmly cheered when
they came out again.
STAN b. now became taVOrite at $40
against 81 for the field.
Second heat-The scoring was long and
tiresome, and owing to the heyt was hard
on the horses. The heat was very holly
contested between Xombro, STAN B. and
DIR. Pun. STAN b. and Zouu bro went TO-
gether to the quarter, but going up the
stretch Zom bro drew ahead little, but
at the half STAN Il. was slightly in front.
Around the turn the three leaders were
Tapped, but before reaching the head of
the stretch Zombr0 pulled out, and led to
the wire by couple OF lengths in PIG,
DR.. Puff second, and STAIN Is. third.
This was remarkable achievement for
three year-old-to 60 out and win a heat
in such last time after having dragged
broken sulky for half-mile in furious
runaway. 1t proved Zombro to be
phenomenal colt.
In the pools after the heat Zom bro sold
for $40, STAN B. $50, and the field 50.
II. Carrigan was taken from behind DIR.
Puff in tins heat, and Walter Mabsn put
up. Carrigan. however, had consider
able money on his horse, and his friends
say he had been doing his best to win.
Third heat-Sidney Howard was in
front at the quarter by two lengths from
DR.. Puff, Zombro third. Going up the
stretch ZombrO broke and fell back, and
the Doctor took the lead from Howard.
He led into the stretch, where Siam b.
came up with rush and passed him.
winning out 10y a length in 2:Io9, Howard
third.
Fourth hoat-This was an exciting con-
test. All the horses were punched from
the quarter to the far turn, with STAN b,
a haif-length the best of it. Zoinbro
came up from fourth place at the head of
the last stretch and made strong play
for the heat, but the best he could do was
to land his head at the leaders, wheel.
Jasper Ayres was third.
