John F. Cockeril's Speedway favorite, Swift
Frank Creamer's Fred S. Moody, well
known on the Brooklyn Speedway, and
Monk, owned by Charles H. L'Hommediei,
were the only starters. The Hamiin geld-
ing, True Chimes. formerly owned by A.
Z. Perren Of Buffalo, was entered. but for
some reason did not start. The time made
In each Of the heats was very much OF n
surprise TO trotting horsemen present. for
the track. especially on the back stretch,
was by no means fast. Samuel Willetts.
the well-known fancier OF heavy harness
horses, was starter.
While there was much scoring owing 70
the bad action Of Monk. they were sent
away In good style in each heat Fred 5.
Moody was very unsteady. In the frs,
heat he broke at the turn. and before
Creamer could get him into his stride he was
30 far back that II was useless for him TO try
to close the gap and he finished second.
Swift won by twenty lengths Fred s.
Moody cut out q fast pace in the second
heat and at the turn had a good lead, but
on the backstretch he went up In the air
and did not get down again until Swift
was too far ahead for him to get nearer
than eight or ten lengths at the finish,
with Monk. away back, third The third
heat was much the same a. the second.
Swift went to the front and trotted Q half
that few Speedway trotters could equal
under the same conditions. Some watches
caught il in 1867. The official timers, gave
II out as ,Oola. Fred s. Moody was not more
than a second back and outside watches
made his half as good as 1857.
The four-in- hands, while making an
imposing show, were not up TO the best in
that line. There were only three entries,
two from James H, Hyde, who drove the
winning four himself. while Morris Hewlett,
the European whip, fooled the other. F.
G.. Bourne's four was the other entry.
but owing to the fact that one Of his horses
showed up lame, he got the gate The
four driven by Mr. Hewlett was not deemed
worthy Of a ribbon. Later Mr.. Hewlett
gave an exhibition Of tooling four-in-hand,
which displayed his skill as a whip.
Only two champion classes were judged,
that for single harness horses and the
saddle class. In the latter there was not
as much Of contest as might have been
expected. Charles F. Hubbs's chestnut
mare, Cigarette, was easily the choice
Only two were shown, DIR. j. T. Ryder's
San Toy, taking the red ribbon. In the
contest for championship honors in the
single harness horse class only two entries
appeared for judgment, the prize going
TO F. c. Bournes breedy looking chestnut
gelding, Moscow. while Royal Swell, first
day winner, was second.
One Of the most interesting classes Of the
