SAN FRANCISCO. April 1.-THE
Ormonde stakes, valued at $1,000, at a
distance OF three miles, was the fea-
ture of the days card and resulted in
disastrous overthrow. Only two
Pat DUNES colt Pepper opened up at
1 to 10. while Cadmus was backed
down from to l. to to 2.
CadmUs led all the way at slow
pace. Pepper moved up on the third
mile and forged ahead a little in the
stretch. but Cadmus caught UP to him
under the whip. The horses came to-
gether two or three times, fouling
each other for almost a furlong. Pep
per got the worst of the foul and was
thrown out of his stride, but Cadmus
won easily al the end and was by far
the stronger horse at the finish. Both
jockeys appeared to be guilty of bad
riding, inasmuch as they kept so close
together. The judges heard what the
Jockeys and patrol judges had to say,
but did not reverse the decision The
decision very naturally created con-
siderable comment, as the majority of
the people appeared to hold the opin-
ion that Cadmus bumped into Pepper
first.
Two favorites and five second choices
were the winners. The weather was
fine and the track good.
