Other Races.
New York, Sept. I-Ten thousand
people saw Henry Of Navarro win the
race ct Sheepshead Bay between the
cracks of the year, Henry of Navarro,
Domino and Rey FL Santa Anita. II
was thought possible few days ago
that Clifford would also be a contestant
but later his owner decided to keep him
out. The race today was the fifth on
the card. consisting of sweepstakes of
$1,000 each, al a mile and furlong.
There was some delay at the post but
when they were sent away Domino, who
had the rail. got a trifie the best Of It.
The black Whirlwind caught out the
pace and a fast one it was, with Ma
varre keeping well up and the Califor-
MIA crack length behind. Not until
II
begin. Perkins, on Navarro, then
made an effort TO come up with his
mount, and Taral, on Domino, drove
his horse along at a terrific rate. Here
also Rey FL Santa Anita started for the
leaders and it seemed as though he
would be in with the driving finish.
When they strung into the stretch Dom
inc still had a length to the good but
was faltering, and Navarro was hold
ing on with the tenacity that has al
ways characterized his work. Taral
used whip and spur but gallant black
was unable to hold his own against the
Belmont crack, who, just before the
wire was reached, poked his nose in
front, and driving along with undimin-
ished speed beat the faltering Domino
half a length. Rey Ell Santa Anita was
far in the rear.
The other feature on the card was the
September stakes which brought to-
gether a large field Of crack 3-year-olds.
Flying Dutchman was an odds on favor
lite but could do no better than third,
Nanki Pooh winning from Counter Ten
or in drive, and making a new track
record at the distance, one mile and
thre furlongs, of 2:2l.
