GETAWAY DAY AT BRIGHTON.
Anaconda PAGES Mile in Race
With Prince Alert In 2.OI "a.

With Prince Alert In POI "a.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE seaside
meeting at Brighton Beach closed today,
the feature race of tne day being the
1ree-or-aH for PAGERS. The field had
dWlndIed down to two starters, Anaconda
and Prince Alert and before the start
both drivers consented that the distance
should be waived, presumably from the
TACT that heretofore Prince Alert has
sometimes been cratic in his races.
But ne was on his good behavior to-
day and made Anaconda step a merry
clip before the race was finished. The
hrst heat was won handily by Anaconda
In 2:O512, but there was fast going from
the start when the PAGERS took the word
for the second heat. They sailed around
TO the first quarter in thirty seconds and
at the half they were head and head In
loo and this clip was maintained to the
three-quarters, which they flashed by in
1:3O. Down the stretch they kept up this
marvellous gait until the distance flag had
been passed, where the Prince slackened
and Anaconda passed under the wire in
2:O1A, with the Prince a couple of
lengths behind. This is the fastest race
of the year and is also a champion record,
as it is the greatest time ever made in
a race by gelding.
The postponed 20S pace, in which two
heats bod been completed yesterday, was
first on the programme with one heat
each to the credit of Martha Marshall
and Dan Patchen, and the latter quickly
settled affairs in straight heats The only
feature was in the fourth heat, where
Martha Marshall made Patchen step the
trst quarter In :3eS4 seconds, the half in
1:0lM, and the three quarters in 1924
With but five, starters in the PIG trot,
Waubun was o. decid4d fayorite and he
won in straight heats in commanding
style s5
The 2:15 pace had a field Of ten and of
these Beausant, a stallion which cost
$1,000, was a hot fayorite prior to the
start, but like many another good thing.
it went wrong for he caught the flag
in the first neat, The winner turned up
in Ononto, a mare, bought by former
Park Commissioner Samuel Mcmillan, of
this city, last May, for SLIGO.
