NEW YORK. June lo.-There was
heavy track at Gravesend to-day. and
the showers which came occasionally did
not improve the going. The attendance
was fairly good. but not as heavy as
might have been looked for on a Derby
day. The chief event Of the day was tho
Brooklyn Derby. at a mile and qusr-
ter. for 3-year-olds. and six went
to the post. with Scottish Chicftian, one
of the Belmont. string as the fav0rite.
The Belmont pair, Octagon and Don de
ORC. were second choices. and Buddha
third in favoritsm. The betting was
heavy and the bulk OF the money was
on Scottish Chieftain.
The delay was slight at the post, and
they got away I'm good order. Oetason
showing the way past the grandstand for
the first time, but all being under
choking pulls. As they rounded into the
back stretch they were well bunched,
with the exception OF Octagon. WHO was
running free. i'm front of the otheh. At
the upper turn Thorpe made a play with
Braw Lad and got up into second place,
but the effort was his last. and he
slowly dropped back TO the rear. and was
soon Joined by the F'riar and Scottish
Chieftain, neither seeming to care for the
going.
As they came into the stretch, Don de
ORC moved up into second place 10 his
stable-mate, Octagon their position In
the Carlton Stakes of a week ago being
reversed. Doggett then began to urge
Buddha, who had been tagging. but the
best he could do was a ding-dong finish
for second money. which he got by
nose on the post. Octagon winning easily.
