Jockey Club programme to-day. 1t was
won by N. F. Dwyer's colt Previous, by
imp. MeddIer out of Sunnyside, with
Philip J. Dryers chestnut colt Hand ball
second and A. II. & D. H. Morris bay
colt Varus third. Frohman, the favorite,
was never prominent, and Hand ball, at
the weights, showed clearly that he was
the best horse in the race.
Sloan secured a slight advantage with
Previous at the start and shot his mount
10 the front. Thorpe on Aratoma went
out in swift pursuit, followed by Hand
ball. Both passed Previous in the run to
the turn, but they were forced to surren-
der the lead TO Varus, this young giant
running around his field with a dazzling
burst of speed at the turn. When we'll
straightened out Varus took a decided
lead and his followers began 10 claim the
victory. Aratoma quit above the furlong-
role, and Hand bail and Previous chal-
lenged the leader.
1t was then that superior condition told,
Varus firing badly and leaving the Dwyer
contestants 10 fight it out to the end.
Previous had five pounds the best Of the
weights and in the last few strides forged
slowly to the front and won by a saddle
half for second money, while KiteiOot
was only head away. Handpress, Great
Bend and MurllIo followed in the order
named, Frohman being pulled up by
Taral when he saw he had no chance to
win.
TaraI said afterward that Frohman
would not run any, and volunteered the
opinion that the son OF Himyar was
sulker.
There was considerable applause when
Sloan trotted Previous back to the stand,
and there IS no doubt the victory was
popular, as Dwyer has not lad the best of
luck Of late on the turf.
Archduke and Great Bend were off
badly. Varus should be hard to beat the
next time he goes TO the post. He un-
Questionably had the speed of the party
to-day, but lacked stamina to carry il.
The winner was bought as yearling by
his present owner at sale OF NarTagan-
sett stud youngsters. His sire, Meddler,
was a famous colt by St. Gahen derby
winner) out OF Busy body (Oaks wInner),
which won so many races for Abingdon
Baird and would have been favorite for
the Derby in his year had his owner not
died while on visit TO tins country. Med
dLer as a three-year-old was bought by w.
II. Forbes of Massachusetts Tor $75, 600
and he is in stud there now.
1t is natural that he should get great
racehOrses.
Previous is not great, he is a second Ban
quet, thatls ala rough, tough customer
mat IS never beaten until the wire is
passed. The Great American stakes was
worth $4,000 10 Dwyer.
