were thrown. Billy c. stopped at the
three-quarters post, but Nicol B. kept on
with the field, running wild In the
stretch the runaway horse pushed ahead
and followed behind the sulkies of Pearl
onward and Castleton. Just before reach
ing the wire the runaway passed in close
to the rail. and while the spectators held
their breath, expecting to see a smashup,
Nicol B. poked his head under the wire
just ahead of Pearl Onward, who won the
heat. The runaway horse showed up and
turned al the first quarter, when he was
caught. Although Murphy and Nc
Laughlin, the drivers, were badly bruised
by the spill, they drove their respective
horses, Billy c. and Nicol 3. in the
fourth heat, both having been given
places Nicol b. won the heat, pacing
clear around the bunch. Darkness pre-
vented the race being finished.
