interesting all around. Los Prietos was

prettiest race of the day and a fast one.

One MiIe-Los Prietos.
There was something of an upset in
this race where Pat Morrissey was
made favorite. and when Los Prietos
won by a nose from Creedmore l. there
was not a great deal of surprise ex-
pressed. Indeed if Creedmore l. had
won there would not have beeen much
surprise. The talent were divided into
half a dozen squads and they put their
money up as fast as the call went their
way. Coda was first to show from a
fair start except for Daylight, left at
the post. Pat Morrissey went to first
in the first turn and led to the head of
the stretch, New Moon going second
to the big bend, where Los Prietos
took the place, and in the drive home
the contenders were Creedmore l. and
Los Prietos, the later winning by a
nose from the Melodramatic colt and
Pat Morrissey. the heavily backed one,
was third two lengths back. Time,
1:42%.

Six Furlongs-Peixotto.
Again the coin of the talent went
glimmering and circulated through the
second division of the talent, who
backed Peixotto. Serrano was f~avorite
at almost ever money. The start was
good and Lady Flight showed first, but
Peixotto went in front and stayed
there, but not without challenge. Joe
Cotton ran at second around to the
stretch and Serrano third. Serrano
challenged the winner down the stretch
but could get no nearer than a head.
