day between Jerome S. and Lonnie B.
The old chestnut mare took a notion to
run kindly yesterday and fKing, by
whirlwind finish, succeeded in landing
her first. But it was only by nose. and
mighty short one at that. Jerome 5.
showed his lack of condition coming
through the stretch. That race ought TO
fix him. and the next time out, with
good boy up, he may be regarded as dan
gero-s.
The races were OF a very good class yes
tcrday and the horses ran right up to
their form. Odds on favorites captured
the last three. and they all belonged 10
the same stable, too. Old Tim Murphy
tincanned around the turn and away from
his field in the second race. Commission
won at mile. and Morven finished up by
beating Bernardo.
The betting was very fair-better even

Johnny Weber got away III the lead on
Jerome S. and stayed there awhile, but
on the upper turn fell back to third:
