SARATOGA, Aug. 3.-This was q typical mid
summer racing day. with nothing to mar its
serenity beyond the delays at the post In three
OF the races The track was in superb condition.
and the sport proved TO be the best OF the meet
ing while the crowd in attendance was far In
excess Of any previous day.
The only stake feature OF the day was the
Filtration for twoyear-olds. with seven colored
to start, but the Woodford 1lly declined the
issue. Still there were Geisha and Briar Sweet
left among the others TO give an argument TO
Lady Marian, for both had beaten the Belmont
ally at Sheepshead Bay. But Saratoga air and
water have worked wonders with the lady. and
It was an easy matter for her TO dispose OF her
field to-day. Hewitt simply waited behind Briar
Sweet and Kilt for three furlongs, and then gal
loped past them. The struggle for place aroused
much enthusiasm. Thorpe brought Geisha up
from fifth place with rush, and captured SEQ
ond honors by head from Briar Sweet
The play opened very dishstrously TO the
talent in the fret race OF six furlonEs for two
year olds. The Keene colt, Black Cock. with
Sloan up, was considered Of the surest
things OF the meeting and there rush to
get on at any price. Black Cock fretted and

took the lead from him and continued TO show
the way TO the last furlong, when San Antonio
made play and won easily by a length from
Momentum. with the favorite three lengths
away.
The second race. OF q mile for threeyear-olds.
was the medium OF heavy speculation. as four Of
the five competitors received strong support.

The mile and quarter handicap, was disap-
pointment, as Sir Walter and Ben Holiday were
with-rawn, leaving only Divide ana Joe Miller
to run for the purse, The latter was an odds-on
tavortte. They ran like a team throughout and
the Canadian horse won only by a neck.
The fifth race brought out a field of ei ight with
desperate drive. by half q length from Orion,
while Green Jacket was beaten only by nose
Lucky Baldwin arrived In time to see his colt
San Antonio win the first race; after he had
backed him at comfortable odds. The summary:
