SOME VERY LARGE DUMPS
Miss Rowena Proves That the Track Is
Speedy by Making the Seasons Mark
for Five Furlongs, 90 3-4-A
Lively Afternoon.

Three favorites. one second choice
and two shorts took the money yes
terday at the track. The attendance
was much larger than that of the day
before. and the speculation was lively.
The six races passed of with but one
hitch, and that was in the first. when
seven horses out of a field of IL went TO
the wire in a drive from a false break
away. The favorfte in the betting, st.
Aloysius. led under the wire and his
rider believed he had won the race. But
he didn't. and the horses were allowed
TO rest for 20 minutes and betting was
continued. In the actual race San Au-
justine. second choice. won. while st.
Aloysius finished back, eased up. The
card was first class and the crowd en-
loved an afternoon of good racing. The
winners were:
i San Augustine. four furlongs. so.
Oscillation. seven furlongs, l:2s&.
! Dolore. n mile, 1:4S1s.
Miss Rowena. five ~furlongs, 1:OO&.
Rossmore. mile and a quarter over
ave hurdles, 2:20h.
= watomba, n mile, 1:43i9.
Four Furlongs.
"A false ~breakaway sent seven of the
Geld OF IL ava and st. Aloysius led
che bunch under a drive past the
5udges' stand by a length and a half,
Xenia second. But IL was no race. and
20 minutes were given to make more
POOLS. San Augustine remained at the
post and Senator Mats, Alice Rix and
Black Orphan pulled up at the signal OF
the recall flag. which the driving bunch
ahead evidently paid no heed to. st.
Aloysius was favorite in the pools at
s25, San Augustine going for SIS.
GThe next trial at the post was not
successful, a rather struggling start be-
ing given, Distance in the lead. Sena-
tor Mats led aroun the last turn half
q length in front of a Augustine, who
was gaining, while st. Aloysius was
back in the bunch taking II easy after
his flight home a few minutes before.
San Augustine won out a length in
front of Senator Mats, who was four
in front of Distance third. Time, 80.
seven Furlongs.
Oscillation was a 800 favorite at one
stage and $50 as a rule against SIG for
Lady Flight. Reel 81. Saucy Eyes Sc
and Emma Rey s.. After four breaks
the field of five left TO a good start and
Emma Rey led Oscillation. Reel, Saucy
Eyes and Lady Flight. Oscillation was
a neck better than Saucy Eyes at the
quarter and Emma Rey was dying
away. Saucy Eyes beat Oscillation to
the half by a head, Lady Flight two
lengths back. Around the far turn Os-
culation jumped TO first n kept IL to
the wire, and entering the stretch she
was half a length in front of Reel.
Saucy Eyes next, a head short and two
lengths in front of Lady Flight, push
ing towards the lead. Emma Rey was
five lengths ehind and going slow. Os-
culation led a drive down and won a
length in front of Lady Flight. who
took second by a length and a half
from Reel third. Saucy Eyes was two
lengths back and 25 in front of Emma
Rey. Time, 1:29%.
One Mile.
II was at this stage of the game the
talent fell. and fell hard. An outsider
named Dolore, owned by the Pueblo
stable and ridden by Wilson. ran a good
race and took the purse. Flashlight
was favorite at $40, Lady Hurst S35.
imp. Missioner SIS. Los Prietos IS and
Dodore was taken for 81. 1t was a fair
start that sent the field around the cir
Gle. but Lady Hurst carried the rubber
with her for a hundred yards, but that
fact an enter as a factor to put her
fourth at the finish, for she was at the
head OF the stretch only a head short
of first. Flashlight was first under way,
but Missioner got 10 the quarter a
length and a half in front, Dolore mex
a length better thar Flashlight. Lady
Hurst closed up n was second only
half a length from Missioner and a
neck better than F1ashlight third, Do
lore last. The positions were the same
at the three-quarters, except that Do
lore passed Los Prietos and ran fourth
at a winning gait. Missioner was first
in the stretch. a head in front of Lady
Hurst and Dolore was only half a
length from her. II was one of those
exciting finishes which the crowd likes
10 see, and every horse passed the wire
under the whip. Dolore won by a length
and a half, Missioner second, a head
better than Flashlight. Time, 1881.
Five Furlongs.
