 valued at s1,SOO, for 3-year-olds, was the principal piece of today's rather ordinary card. Owing to the rains of Sunday night and Saturday, which left the track muddy and sticky, half of the entries were drawn.
 The race proved a good one for the three who finished in front, half a length sep arating Grayless the winner, from Love s Labor, who was half a length in front of Celeritas, the favorite. Glenn Lake, Gray less, Celeritas and Loves Labor were first to show at fag-fall. Wedderstrand was lucky in getting Grayless well placed, and when he was ready came on and won in a drive. It was pretty struggle for the place, Loves Labour lasting long enough to stall off the whirlwind rush with which Winkfield brought Celeritas up. The time the track. The last race dwindled down to three-horse race Lord Zeni, who had started twice before at the meeting, win ming in a rattling finish, Hand Press sec ond and Crockett third. The books had the best of the days play, only two out of the six favorites finishing in front.
