two-year- old performance stamped
him. and rightly So the king of the
Western turf, lowered his colors this
afternoon before a gamer and a bet
ter animal. Without being touched,
and with only little shaking up near
the wire, Typhoon II. landed the COW
eted prize. Showing the way the entire
distance of one mile and a quarter, the
chestnut colt was never in distress at
any part of the journey. The finish was
not of the sensational kind that stirs
the spectators and furnishes sensa-
tons to those who have wagers on the
outcome, for TyphoOn's victory, well
and gamely contended, was won with
an ease that clearly proves his supe-
riorlty over the five other colts con-
