large attendance remained to see Glad
fator down Moondyne II in the maj
course of the open stake. Those VINO
STAYED for the finish were amply reward

when Gladiator did some pretty work.
Moondyne then shot forward and killed,
shutting himself out for first money.
Wild Tralee was neatly put out by the
winner of the stake in the semi-tinal
round by d score of IA to o. In the opin-

A great deal of enthusiasm was dis
played by bettors and spectators during
the race between Wild Tralee and his
sister, LOttie NJ. In quick succession. the
two rivals of the same litter fought hard
for supremacy. The courses were re-
