NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-When the
fourth race at Gravesend today had been
run, the crowd stood aghast. The great
Ben Brush, who could beat anybody s
horse few days ago, and was in the pink
of condition then, had his colors lowered
by a 2-year-old, and lame one at that,
and one that had not shown much CT
anything in his last race. So, with the
odds of to against Ben Brush, it was
not surprising that 40 to could be got
against Plaudit. Plaudit and Alice
Gray made the running to the upper
turn, when DR.. Catlett joined Plaudit
and Alice Gray fell back to the rear.
They raced head and head into the
stretch and down to the finish, when
Ben Brush squeezed in between them
Plaudit winning by a head with Ben
Brush head in front of Dr. Catlett
