SPORT AT FLEETWOOD.
1t In Above the Average-Events
That Create Excitement.


wood management attracted only small
crowd to that track to-day. The sport,
however, was above the average. both
events creating quite little excitement
before they were concluded. 1t was a
case of Refina against Redinda in the
pacing race, and Van Zandt against Page
In the trotting event. Refina was favorite
i'm the first trial, and she won the heat
easily, but Redinda's getting the decision
In the next two heats made the race
very Uncertain. Refina, however, proved
the better slayer, and In the last two
heats managed to outpace Redlnda after
a struggle and was given the verdict.
In the trotting race the crowd was
much dissatisfied, after the third heat,
which was declared a dead heat after
Van Zandt had won by good half length.
The event was between the pair from the
first call, and Van Zandt finally won, but
not until she had been very hard pressed
by Page.
