WATERCOLOR WINS THE TIDAL STAKES
AT sHEEPsHEAD BAY IN \ CANTER.

! Watercolor. one of the handsomest colts in
training. the Tidal Stakes yesterday at
sheepshead in mere canter. his closest rival at
the finish being the St Florlan colt Smile. who
won the Baychester Stakes at Morris Park, and
4 Smile lengths away when the black colt
pranced by the judges a winner. The flag fell TO
good start after short delay, and Watercolor.
Military and Smile went out together. An instant
later Spencer was seen pull up shortly. and
q moment later the field had passed him. IT looked
as IL the St. Florian colt had been crowded out,
but Spencer did not complain to the stewards. He
sent his mount along well after the bad start.
however, that he finished only two lengths behind
the winner. The rest Of the field was nowhere. 1t
mighty good performance for the Water
color colt for he covered the mile in l:SS As.
The tumble for which many racegOers have been
looking ever since there began 10 be much foul

and il seemed a miracle that serious injury
suited TO neither horse rider. Shaw was the
victim. and Margraviate, his mount, turned about

Prince of Melbourne made his first appearance of
the year this race. but II was feared that he
was short a race. as, indeed. the event proved
Wax Taper the favOrite but got of badly. and
Combs took him over the overland route there
after. All Gold and Margraviate were the first TO
show, and they made the running for the better
part Of three-quarters OF a mile. Fonsolee. the
rankest of outsiders. was well up with them and
Wax Taper too. had by that time improved his
position. MargraViate collapsed coming INTO the
stretch. and All Gold, Wax Taper and CarDuncle
raced by him-WaX Taper the outside. As the
latte. went by Margraviate stumbled, and a big
cloud OF dust shot up as he went down and rolled
over and over barely missing crushing his rider
Shaw lay limp and still the rest Numbered on,
and two policemen picked him up and carried him

and soon recovered and walked down to the

stewards took this view Of the case, too, and dis
