R0MAIR WENT TO THE POST LAME
AND WAS NEVER IN IT
WITH ING0MAR.
THE FAVORITES FARED WELL.

OTHERS HANpLY.

Enghshman, j. Talbot Clifton. was dimin-
lshed to the extent of $500 by the match
race at the track yesterday between his
morse Romair and the Kentucky stables
lngomar. The distance was seven fur
longs, each horse to carry 120 pounds. As
a betting affair the match was a decided
failure, Ingomar being an odds on favorite.
Romair went to the post on three legs and
finished 1.-TWO. 1t was only through suf-
ferance that Chorn allowed Romair to
Keep within length of his mount, and
contented himself with winning bv a
couple of lengths. Romair pulled up so
lame that 1t was with difficulty that he
i!mped back to the paddock The Bur
ungame horSeman took the matter very
phllosophically and seemed to feel keener
the loss OF his friends that had bet on the
crippled racer than he did of his own van
ished wealth.
The cool weather evidently had de-
pressing effect on the speculative frater-
nifty, Tor betting was much lighter than on
most OF the days last week.
1t was very good day for favorites, five
OF the SIX events going to the first choice.
Examiner, the TO 5 favorite, won the
opening race for maidens over the short
slX-furlong course after drive with Arctic.

shot was third. J got away with his
Jockey and ran two and three-ouarter
miles before he got him under control. He
was then excused
Griffin followed up his success in the
opening event by finishing in front on
Terrier, the favorite, for the second race. a
fulI slx-furlong run. The big chestnut was
to chance, with Lucky Dog a very
warm second choice, going to the post to

when the flag finally fell he got the worst

lead, holding until an eighth from the wire
where the favorite collared and passed her
and won easily by one and a half lengths.
Lucky Dog was third, about the same dis
lance behind Quirt.
The third was distinctly "crab" race
and nearly everything in it received some
support. Roma seemed to be the best of
