Rowan, the young lad who threw away a
race on Irma last Saturday by taking a nap on
| the mares back while running in front with a
comfortable lead and being beaten out by Bob
Thicker, repeated the trick again yesterday

After yesterdays run it is beginning to dawn

promising youngster, and no more fancy odds
will be obtained about him. His owners Neil

About the only sensational feature of the
racing Yesterday was the win of the old
warhorse Toano, who a few years back
was able to hold his own with the best
sprinters in the country. But age told on
the old fellow, and his former perform

second race yesterday he seemed to have
gained q renewed lease of life, for he led
his field the whole distance and won romp-

stiff play cut his odds down to II. In

reputation and proved himself one of the
best youngsters at the track by taking the
third event, five and half iurlong spin
for two-year-olds, in fast time. He opened
at to in the betting, was backed down
to ~ and later receded to threes. The
Schneider entry, Laura F, ruled to 1

longs. Judge Tamm and Irma were about
the only ones of the eleven starters that
seemed to be in demand. The former
finally closed an to favorite in the bet

relnquished the lead to Irma. The latter
had a mortgage on the purse, but while
running in front with comfortable lead,
Rowan, her rider, fell asleep a sixteenth
from the wire, and Chorn on Judge Tamm
purloined the race by half length. Val
