and was taken by William Murry's
speedy daughter of imported Friar Luck.
Gree. the 9 to 10 favorite in the betting.
Fifty yards from the wire the FLY made
a bad stumble, which might have cost her
the race under less skillful riding of an
other pilot. but "Soup" Perkins caught
her cleverly and placed the $500 end of the
stake to the credit of the pertly Sacra-
mento owner and trainer.
The card for the day, which was a most
excellent one, was marred by one unfor-
tunate incident and that was the accident
to young frankie Coady. who had the
mount on Charles Quick In the second
race. While nearing the turn into the
homestretch, rum ing close to the rail
back in the bunch the colt stumbled, un-
seating the boy, throwing him against one
Of the fence posts, causing compound
fracture OF the right leg below the knee.
Coady has been doing the lightweight rid
ing for Frank Van Ness since the accjd ent
to Eddie Jones and gave promise of be-
coming quite clever jockey.
Six maidens lined up for fve-furlong
dash, The first rare on the card, all being
two-year-olds with the exception of
Wicklow II. My Charm was the supposed
good thing. opening at TO /, and going 10
the post to g. My Sweetheart was the
actual favorite, going to the post TO 2.
When the flag fell Bot Isom took
Barcsldine out in front, keeping him there
to the finish. winning by four lengths.
Bravura, 70 to shot. came fast the last
furlong, securing the place from My
Charm, who got away badly.
On Saturday Last Ro bin Hood won
ive-furlong race by three lengths under
double wrap, yet in the second race yes
terday at the same distance, with seven
pounds less weight. he opened in the bet
ting at 6 to l. or course he was meeting a
much better class of horses, but he showed
in his previous race by the manner in
which he WOE that be could give any of
the platers now running tussIe. AT post
lime be had been backed TO threes.

The Quinlan stakes for two-year-olds,
five and half furlongs. was cap ured by
Murry's speedy FLY Gree, who after run
ming several lengths ahead of Mainsta
all the way. came very nearly being nabbed
and beaten the last sixteenth, aided by a
stumble fifty yards from the wire.
The betting greatly favored Gree who
went to the post l 10 shot. The Elkton
stable entries, Olivia and Mainstay, were
second choice at threes. The only other
starters were Sunrise and Headflower.
Soup" Perkins shot out in front with
the flying Gree as they were sent away,
followed by Mainstay. Entering the
stretch four lengths in front, it looked like

riding Mainstay hard came very nearly
nabbing her the last sixteenth. Fifty
yards from the wire she STUN bled. but
Perkins catching her very prettily, landed
her winner by a length and a hall,
Olivia finished a poor third.
Frank Van Ness i'm ported mare Elise,
the favOTlte for the fourth race. had the
run In hano from the fall of the flag. The
knights of the block were very chary
about marking the odds against Agitato,
finally laying to against him, but he
came a long way from beating the Van
Ness entry. Zaragoza received con slider
able backing at long price. but was never
prominent. Imp. Paramatta ran a very
good race. considering his long ''lay Off"

lowed by Agitato. Around the far turn
Paramatta passed Agitato, but entering
the stretch Smith made a wide turn. al
lowing Agitato to again have second po-
sition. The imported mare won easily by
two lengths, Agitato beating imp. Para
ma tia fully twelve lengths for the place.
Captain Coster IS rapidly regaining his
lost prestige, which gave him such wide
reputation by his phenomenally fast trials
as an early twO-year old. After getting
away fourth In the last race he ran past
his field and won III true racehOrse fashion.
Opening at to he went to the post at

Good Bye, the Corrigan entry, 8 10 l
shot. ran a poor race. Roeder, formerly
the Mura colt, ran an excellent race under
his new name.
To good start they ran closely punched
down the back stretch; Captain Cosler,
away fourth, wendell his way through the
bunch and, passing the half, was a short
length IN front of Roeder. Jake Johnson
but a head away. Captain Coster had a
clear lead OF length into the stretch,
Jake johnson length in front OF Roe

stretch. but was unable to catch Captain
Coster. who finished strongly length in
