est was added to the second day of the
Breeders Association meeting Mt the

fast exhibition miles, paced by John r.
Gentry and Rebert j., with running
mates. The track was--slow, and it.; was
therefore IL genuine surprise when john
Il. Gentry went the mile in 202 1-2. This
is the fastest mile paced by Gentry this
season.
When Brown turned Gentry around
after tie heat and drove up in front of
the grand stand the, spectators went wild
with enthusiasm and round after round of
cheers was given.
Matthew Laird. the owner and driver
of Rubenstein (2:6), caught Gentry's mile
in 2O2 IL, same as announced by the
judges.
John S. Clark, who bred Gentrv's dam.
made it quarter of a second slower.
Both said that taking into consideration
the condition of the track, which had
been rained on for two day s. 1T was the
greatest performance sever accomplished
by John r. Gentry or any other horse.
Mr.. Brown, Gentry's driver, stated thar
on the back stretch the track was wet in
half dozen places and on the home
stretch there was a bad spot.
Robert j. made two attempts to pace n
fast mile. The first time he cast a shoe
before reaching the half; on the second
trial he made the mile in 2:06.
