SECOND DAYS RACES.
Over 1000 people attended the races
and although the contests were not
as exciting as on the previous day, the
time made was fast. The harness events
we're decided in straight heats, as the
favorites won. Judge Davidson as
sisted materially in getting the races
over promptly, as he held the jockeys
strictly TO the rules as regards time
between heats and threatened to
penalize them if they did not score up
| promptly.
In the $50 race Windsorwood was a
pretty sight as he piloted the Others
| around the track in each heat. He
is a very snowy horse and moved like
a piece of machinery,
Cassie Fletcher in the 2. 20 class also
was as steady as rock, never showing
any disposition to break and could nc
| doubt have gone faster still had she
been called upon to do so.
The running races caused some an.
noyance. The judges were about hall
an hour in getting them started. The
favorites in each race were beaten.
A racing programme was announced
for the Fourth of July: The summary
2.30 class-Purse, $500.
