One of the most remarkable races on
record took place recently in Australia. In
the three-mile race for the Champion
stake, Wallace, the 3-year-old son of Car
bine, ran a dead heat with the 4-year-old
Trenton mare Culver. According to on
lockers no more gallant struggle was ever
seen on the turf, and judging from the
time made this statement would seem to
be no more than true The first mile and
half was run in 2:45ia. and the last mile
and half in 2:37A, the last half mile
being covered in 52h seconds. To give an
idea how fast this time is IL may be stated
that the first mile and a half was run
faster than Ormonde's Derby and the sec
ond mile and half five seconds faster
than the fastest Derby on record. The

added immensely to the intense excite

between Wallace and Culver. who not
only finished together. but ran neck and
neck. a regular ding-dong race. for the
whole OF the last mile.
