The feature Of the sport at Brighton Beach
yesterday afternoon was the superb struggle
between Bun Up and Buckwa In the third event,
at one mile and q sixteenth. All but this pair
declined the issue. the talent figuring Buckwa
40 invincible with 1o7 pounds in the saddle.
Buokwa was an oddson ~favorito, and all Of the
plungers supported him; but in Sun Up he met
his match. The pair ran head and head for
nearly o mile amid tho greatest excitement. and
then Sun Up drew away and won by nearly two
lengths In the very fast time Of 1:47a, the first
mile being run in 1:40a and the three furlongs
up the backstretch in 34ia seconds. Few horse
men nave witnessed greater flights Of speed, and
there was never q moment during the first seven
furlongs whom either racer had the slightest ad.

stride, with the big crowd applauding tumult-
uously.
It was decidedly day OF surprises, MichaelI

and the talent lost back TO the layers q goodly
portion Of the sums they had won during tho
early days Of the week. The feature Of the pro-
eramme for yesterday was tho Speculative

the contenders, Clawson and Hirsh putting up
their best efforts in the way Of riding. Cherry

at the furlong pole with Julius Cesar. and, be-
