BRIGHTON'S MEETING
A SUCCESSFUL ON {
Best in the History of the
Popular Seaside Course.
List of Winning Owners Headed nv
General McLewee-Hyphen a
Good Three Year-Old.

NEW YORK, Aug. 3.-Yesterday's rae
ing at Brighton Beach wound UP the
sport on tracks around New York until
September 1, when the fall meeting at
Sheepshead Bay will beSin, the feature
of which will be the great Futurity, the
richest stake run in America
Brightons meeting has without doubt
been the most successful ever held at
the popular seaside track. The quality
of horses taking part has been of the
best. and the stakes hung I'D have been
rich enough to attract the best perform
ers Of the year. The sport yesterday
was all that could be desired 1t is not
often that two stakes OF the value of
$4,000 each are run of on the same day.
and IL was not surprising, therefore, that
a vast throng OF people should have been
attracted to the course
Yesterdays two stakes demonstrated
that there are some good horses running
that have not heretofore this season
made much showing. Hyphen's victory
In the Derby was a brilliant one. and Il
is now a question whether or not Cap
tain Brown has not about as good
three-year- as there is in training
II Is true Hyphen did not carry equal
weight with Major Daingerfeld, but be
won so impressively that many were of
the opinion that he could have won even
with equal weights.
Hurstbourne. who took the Brighton
Junior. got home only by head, and had
little weight up. but he stood a long
hard drive and showed himself to be
thoroughly game. Dalesman's perform
ance was a disappointment both to his
owners and the public.
The Winning Owners.
list of the winning owners at the
Brighton meeting is appended. 1t shows
that General McLewee's horses won the
greatest amount of money, while Green
Morris is second and the Keene stable

except when they have chances to win
overnight selling events for moderate
purses
Though most of the large owners re-
Trained from racing their best horses
at the Beach. the Brighton management
enjoyed wonderful success.
The shifting of operations to Saratoga
however. means that thousands of local
racing enthusiasts will not be able TO
look at the bangtails again until the
Futurity is run at Sheepheads Pay.
Indications. however. point to larg-
er attendance at the Springs than a year
ago. in spite Of the increased admis-

That the bookmakers look for pros
porous meeting is shown by the an
rouncement that sixty-fve layers, mem

row afternoon.
Speculation IS rife as to the probable
winner of the $4,000 Saratoga Handi-
cap, at a mile and three-sixteenths The
entries as announced indicate a crack
ing good race If all of the horses go to
the post.
Although Frank Farrell and Trainer
Tom Welch do not think Blues can win,
the Sir Dixon-Bonnie Blue II horse
will go to the post just the same. and
