the Season.
One Of the Grandest Races Ever Run on the
Western Turf.


by Three-Year-Old, and With
in a Quarter Of q Second Of the
Worlds Record Made by Buck
wa.
has fallen. Plaudit, the greatest three
year-old Of the year, met his first de-
feat of the season to-day in the La
tonia derby, after one Of the grandest
contests ever witnessed on the Western
turf. Han dor is the colt that lowered
the colors of the Madden pride. Ten
thousand people cheered Han dor as
he came down the stretch like a wild
horse, and looking every inch a win
ner. Martin was whipping Plaudit, and
riding like a demon. A hundred yards
from the wire Plaudit made a gallant
effort to come up, but it was Of no use.
His speed and endurance were gone,
and Han dor crossed the wire WIN
ner by three lengths, amid great excite
ment in the grand stand and loud
cheers of the hundreds of stable hands
in the field. No race run at Latonia
ever created more enthusiasm, and ev-
it the grandest race since the days of
Tenbroeck.
The track, contrary to expectations,
was lightning fast, and all conditions
favored good time being made.
The race from a time standpoint was
a most remarkable one. There were
but two starters, and little time was
lost in getting them away from the
-
gether, and Han dor at once set out
to make his own pace. Plaudit could
never overtake him from the start Han
dor led by three lengths until the
stretch was reached, when Plaudit
tried to make his run, but the killing
pace told on him, and the former won
in handy fashion
The time for the mile and half was
2:3212, but Il of a second slower than
the worlds record for the distance made
by Buckwa, and the fastest time ever
made by a three-year-old.
The mile and half record is held by
Buckwa, who ran the distance at Oak
land December oath, last, in 2:3214, but
as a siX-year- he carried only 1O3
pounds, SO that Han doris record is
the better. The best previous perform
ance by -year-old was Lamp
lighters mile and a half August 9, 1892,
at Monmouth Park, in 2:32%4, with 100
pounds up.
Jockey Conley, who rode the winner
was surrounded by large crowd after
he dismounted and was carried to the
scale room on the shoulders of sew
eral enthusiastic friends.
Plaudit was always ! to in the bet
ircr It'll
had on Han dor
