HANLEYS HORSE WON.

HANltTS HURSt WuM.
Yesterdays races at the park surprised
many. by placing favorites in the rear.
Anaconda, the PAGER with a record OF
2:Ol%. was beaten by Prince Alert, owned
by James Hanley In good time. In straight
heats. The judges became suspicious OF
Trout's work I'm the first two heats and
McHenry displaced him I'm n q third but
IL did not change the result, and Prince
Alert finished the heat a length ahead
All OF the races were very interesting.
In drawing for position for the cree for
all, Curry had the luck he wished for.
Prince Alert secured the pole. Connor was
next, while Anaconda was on the outside.
The track was In record breaking con
dition. When the word was given, Ana
conda started TO make rush from the
outside. and everybody expected him 10
get the pole before the quarter was
reached. He fell short. Prince Alert kept
the pole and was TO the quarter better
than a two-minute clip That's not like
Anaconda, despite the clip. He is not taxi
ing hold the way he has when paciag that
| clip" one was heard 10 say. As matter
OF fact, ne did not convey the impression
OF the great force and speed which have
marked other efforts OF his.
When Alert was at the half in 59iAs,
and was still able to stall OF the rush -
of Anaconda, IL appeared that the hop
pied PAGER from this city was speed
ier horse than his Boston rival. The third
quarter Of the mile was covered I'm "ls.,
decrease of speed from that shown Ia the
first two quarters.
Thousands Of eager eyes were strained
TO see what the favorite would do In the
rush down the stretch. At the half the
pair were nearly on even terms. Coming
around the upper turn Prince Alert gain
ed a neck. But when the seven-furlong
pole was reached it was plain that Ana
conda was all out
In comparison with Alert. he looked
like a road horse going against a race
horse Anaconda was certainly very
tired horse at the end OF the mile. This
was so seIf-evident that the odds chang
ed TO 100 for Alert and so for the field.
In the second heat Lnaconda made his
pace in the first part of the mile Inc
! first two quarters were quarter Oh
| second slower than the previous fractions
| OF the mile. but still the half was reached
| at a two-minutes gait
Anaconda tried several times 10 move
20 Prince Alert's head. but he could not
reach his suky wheel and hold IL, and
| the most of the time there was a clean
| open length between the two.
| Turikng into the stretch II was the same
| old story Anaconda was tired. while
| Prince Alert appeared TO have plenty or
| reserve.
The last quarters OF both miles were
| slow. making the miles anything put an
| approach 20 the championship marx III
was evident that the judges thought that
| Anaconda could carry his clip a bit far-
| ther. for when the trio came out for the
| unsl heat they requested Ayron McHenry
/ 10 take the seat behind Anaconda.
The change resulted in practically no
change The mile was rated dinerent, put
| the time was not so fast as the preceding
| one by n quarter OF second. McHenry
! had driven Anaconda in his best races In
! 1899 and 1900 ana yesterday he was 'all
over the horse at the finish.
