Bonnie Ola, with 12O pounds on his back,
established a new American record for
q mile and a furlong this afternoon,
when he won the Islip Handicap from
Tom Kenny in a drive by neck His
time was 1:51. the best previous figure
being Isl 10. made by Watercure, 100
pounds. and Roelsmpton, 81 pounds, both
on the Brighton track.
Bonnibert was made an odds-on favor
ite at to ), with Ten Candles. also car
rylng le0 pounds. receding to 312 to /.
Tom Kenny receiving fifteen pounds
from Bonnibert and Ten Candles, was
played down to fours, while Contend,
with gift of fourteen pounds, went up
to tens.
Contend took the rail and the track
as the barrier few up. and set rafting
pace around the lower turn into the
backstretch. Martin hung close to him
with Bonnibert. while Wcnderly follow
ed easily with Tom Kenny, Ten Candles
trailing and staying in last place nearly
all the way. Nearing the far turn, Bon
nibert moved up on even terms with Con-
tend
Kenny Loses Ground
As this occurred, Wonderly rushed Tom
Kenny close onto the Farrell colts heels,
SO that be had to.pull up. the Inspector
B. colt getting out Of a swinging stride
and losing much valuable ground. At the
head of the stretch BGnribert cut across
Contend who was pulled up by Martin
and. Incidentally, struck himself.
Wonderly had Tom Kenny going again
by this time, and, rushing up on the out
side, he challenged Bonnibert at the last
sixteenth. The favorite was coming on
rather easily under Martins hard ride.
but as Tom Kenny continued TO squirt
under the whip, Martin was forced to
ride the colt hard to win by neck. Tom
Kenny was five lengths before Contend,
who beat Ten Candies by two lengths.
With better ride 1om Kenny might
have WOE. Cochran. who rode Contend.
lodged a protest OF foul against the
winner, but it was overruled. Contend
was so lame that he hobbled away to the
cooling-out shed. evidently in great
pain.
Farrell Wins Big Sum.
Bonnibert's victory netted his owner a
big sum in bets, and also enabled the
talent to hit the ring hard. He was not
the only successful favorite, however,
as three others flashed past the judges
in front. while a second choice also won.
Rosetint, John Boden's good flly.
which he purchased frorl August Bel
mont. won another race today. cap ur-
ing the first event for two-year- old fl
lies easily from Stamping Ground and
Miladi Love. This fliy has been beat
en- only twice this year, and while she
has not beaten any CT the cracks. her
form has been so consistent that she is
one OF the NEST useful two-year-olds out
this season..
The steeplechase went to II. J. Laugh
Inns Rising Sun, equal choice with In
spectOr Stevens. Veitch rode a nice race
on Rising sun, and won comfortably at
the finish. The third event was cap

kell's mare, who has made several un-
successful attempts to earn brackets
;his season.
Clipper, the horse that won at 100 to
] few days ago. started again this
afternoon in the last race and finished
second. He was again AT a long price,
