who has developed into a superb race

Heno was withdrawn from the Metro
politan Handicap by Trainer Charley Hill.
who left His Eminence and Kamara to
represent Mr.. Mackay, bu; if Heno had
been allowed to run in the big handicap
and had displayed the form he did today
there is little doubt that he would have
made Arsenal's victory a much harder
one.
When Heno was inspected in the pad
dock before the race it was noted that
his off fore leg was a trifie bowed, and
for that reason some of the more venture
some layers took liberties with his
chances. Heno was asked to beat only
]. b. Higgins Bon Mot and J. E. Mad
den's Colonel Bill over the last six and
half furlongs Of the Withers mile, but 1t
was possible to obtain as much as to D
against him in the opening quotations
This was SO readily taken that TO 20 was
the closing odds. Bon Mot was backed at
fours and Colonel Bill at IL to 2.
Start Was Poor.
The start was poor, Colonel Bill getting
much the worst of It. At the quarter
Heno led Bon Mot by a head After that
he drew away with case, and although
Burns kept check on him all the way,
he romped past the judges pulled up by
three lengths. 1t might just as well have
been an eighth of a mile.
Colt Is a Good One.
Heno covered the distance in 1:2iik.
IL seconds slower than the track record,

the two three-year- olds, who have held
the center OF the stage thus far. Heno is
now regarded as the coming horse. and a
dangerous factor in the big events in
which he is engaged.
Large Crowd Present.
Another crowd of perhaps 9,oeo persons
turned out TO see the sport and enjoy the
atmosphere Of Westchester but Us far as
picking winners was concerned only the
bookmakers had a chance TO exult. Two
favorites, Heno, and Sweet Tooth in the
second race were victorious, the other
events going to a second and third
choice and two long shots.
Another good performance. also by
three-year- was the victory of Albert
Featherstone's black flly Hatasoo. by Al
bert-Hoo boo, who took the New Rochelle
Handicap for three-year-olds and upward
from a good field. This race was run over
the last seven furlongs OF the Withers
mile. and Mr.. Mackay's fve-year-oli mare
Kamara was the choice at to 1. There
was enough play on Hatasoo to cause her
odds to fall from fves to fours. while the
Pepper stables whiskey King was cut
from fours to threes.
Hatasoo Was Speedy.
Hatasoo showed wonderful flight OF
speed. and rushed away from the barrier
30 fast that she soon had a commanding
lead. The FLY did not stop. and rounded
into the stretch with lead OF three
lengths over whiskey King. who was a
length before Smart Set. Hatasoo tired
bit In the last sixteenth, but o'Connor
rode him hard. and won the race by a
length, with Kamara beating Whisky
King an equal distance. Smart Set was
only a head behind Hatasoo's time.
