NEW YORK, May 4.-In q race that
was a magnificent spectacle and was
run with perfect fairness, Clarence H.
Mackay's famous horse, Banastar,
by Farandole Blessing. carrying top
weight. 12S pounds, and superbly ridden
by odom triumphed in the rich Metro
rolitan Handicap al Morris Park this
afternoon. More than $4,000 men and
women saw the great race, and when
Banastar flashed-past the finish post
head in front Of r. W. Walden & Sons
Contestor. by Galore Conjectrix, there
was mighty shout OF approval, even
though thousands in the throng were
financially beaten by the result
1t was Banastar who. two years ago
won the Brooklyn Handicap and was
then left al the post in the Suburban Of
the same year. At that time he was
owned by the late william H Clark,
and ii was because Of his failure to
get away III ihat valuable STAKE race
that his jockey, Danny Maner, was
punished by suspension. Banastar did
not appear in a race again until last
fall, so that when he came upon the
track today II was for the second time
since he afforded racegoers a memoir
able disappointment.
At the sale of Mr. Clark's stable Ban
astar was purchased by Mr. Mackay
for $4,000 There was no doubt after
the Metropolitan had been decided that
Banastar was the best horse and was
Justly entitled to the laurels that were
awarded him. Strange 10 say, however,
the public at large did not fancy the
chances of Mr.. Mackay's horse. He
was considered a possible back num-
Der and then, again, the fact that he
was an acknowledged bad actor at the
post caused a feeling Of timidity.
But to the men and women who saw
the son of Farsndole warm UP before
the race II was apparent that he pos
sessed all his old time speed and yigor
That was the best line that had been
obtained on Banastar's true form, and
those who appreciated the fact took ad-
vantage OF the liberal odds of l6 to l.
Confession ran grand race also, but

the last two yards the Galore colt did
