MYSTIFYING DECISION TO BETTORS.

Winning in a Drive With Ten

MYSIlFYING DECISION 70 BETTORS

comes very lar from DelDR popular one.
There were but three starters in the race,
a six-furlong affair-Motor, imp. Elise and
Realization. The betting on the race was
very peculiar TO start with. Motor opened
up to favorite, but the coin from the
right place did not seen to be forthcoming
on the son of knight of Elltrslie and he
receded in the betting ring until IL to o
was obtaiuable. In the meantime Real
izatioD, carrying but SO pounds, had been
backed down from to 3 10 to 5, finally
going to the post even money IN few Of
the books. When the flag fell Realization
soon went to the front and, rOmping in
front all the way, won handiy by two
lengths.
After dismountIng Jerry ChorD, who
rode Motor. claimed that Flynn on the ia
vOrite had bumped into Elise just after the
flag fell. compelling him to pull up or go
over the fence. Flynn on being ques Toned
by the iudges admitted that the horse
sweryed in with him. but said he always
does it. and that the fouling was purely
unintentional. The judges however de-
cided to allow the claim, and placed Reall-
cation last.
There is always more or less jostlng in
every run while the horses are at the post,
and this was but one case in hundred
that has occurred since the meeting
started.
A rather unusual accident occurred
while the horses were at the post in the
! fourth race. Chevalier, who had the mount
| on North, was grabbed out of the saddle
by Jake Allen. the ugly brute biting quite
a chunk OF flesh out of the boys leg above
the knee and then tried to trample him to
death.
All of the ten starters in the opening
race at six furIongs faced the starters flag.

against the green background Of grass

tire distance, followed by Mainstay, until
they struck the last hill before the home
stretch. This proved too much for the

| Blue Banner, Gordlus and Mutineer re-
celved considerable support, principally
for the place.

Barney Schreiber's reliable old gray

was soon played down to 4 10 5 and even
money.

jumper, both received good backing. At

Another five-aud-a-ha lf-furlong scramble
ended In grand dump. The talent could
see nothing in the race but Zaragoza.
Chemuck and Ricardo, and good scranl-
bic ensued to '1et on" at top prices.
North, carrying bnt SO pounds, and who
tried his hand over the timber several
times and is sla ted to win the next maiden
steeplechase, was entirely overlooked,
going 20 the post 10 TO l. Dick O'Malley,
another 10 to l shot, doomed up very
dangerously at the finish
While at the post Jake Allen, an ugly
tempered brute, grabbed Chevaller, who
had the mount on North. by the right leg

tried tn paw him 10 death. Cnevalier was
placed in a hack and Starter Ferguson

Cheyalier was quite badly hurt. the man

The last race was ''corker" in more
ways than one, and out three horses
started al that. 1t was puzzler to bettor:
from the beginning of the betting and they
are still guessing. Motor opened fsvorite
