The card for the opening day at Ingle-
side fully warranted the large attendance.
1t atoned in way for many days Of cheap
racing. The weather was just triae
warmer than for some days past and the
track fast and velvety. Asthe programme
looked as though it might be hard one
to pick the bookmaking fraternity was ar
rayedsin full force in the ring, eighteen
layers of odds making up prices. 1t
proved one of those "split-even" days so
often heard of. three favorites and three
outsiders getting the purses. w 18th posi-
bly, one or two exceptions the finishes
were all of the driving sort.
That incorrigibie youngster Lincoln II
bobbed up again, furnishing the surprise
OF the day. 1t all happened in the mile
purse event for which Salisbury II. carry
ing 1O6 pounds. ruled to favorite.
Pat Dunne's Damien, with Bob Isom and
"a pounds in the saddle, it was thought
would prove troublesome but receded in
the betting from twos to to and was
evidently not much iancied by his stable
connections. A stiff play on Installator
cut his odds down from Is to 6. Kamsin
was also extensively played at 5 to L.
At the barrier both Kamsin and Damien
Damien acted sour, and the former was
eventually left. Damien started off as

have stayed in the stable. Salisbury ii
went out with his usual show of speed and
looked all over winner until sti light
ened away in the stretch. Here Installator
and Lincoln II began closing the gap and
Jones went to work on the favorite. II e
managed to hold Installator on the out
side safe, but Lincoln getting through next
the rail beat him out half a length in
1:4l%. The winner was overlooked in the
betting at odds of u to /.
