Surf Stakes Captured by
Monte Carlo in Hard
Drive.
RACE RUN IN POURING RAIN
Big Crowd Sees Sport at Sheepshead
Bay Despite the Heavy Rain-Tidal
Stakes Marred by Scratching-Fa-
vorites Lose.

NEW YORK, June 21.-The good card
offered by the Coney Island Jockey Club
this afternoon drew a very large crowd
to the track. notwithstanding the pour
ing rain. When the horses were called
to the post in the opening event there
were close to 1000 persons present.
The rain, however, interfered with the
chances for good sport, as the track was
a perfect quagmire after the drenching
it received. Consequently, there was
little interest attached to any OF the
events, especially as the talent failed
TO pick the winners successfully.
The main attractions Of the day were
the two stake events. the Surf, for two
year -olds. over the last five and one
half furlongs Of the Futurity course. and
and a quarter. with guaranteed value
of 500, 200.
Yankee Was Scratched.
More than ordinary interest was at
tached to the race, because II was ex-
pected that W. C. Whitney's crack colt,
Yankee, would make his debut as q
ne was in the best possible condition
and would be certain starter But the
rain upset all plans. and Yankee being
a long-striding horse, his owner and
his trainer. John Madden, thought 1t
best not to race him. and Goldsmith car
ried the stables colors. Old England
was also withdrawn, and Emshee was
scratched
This left only Major Daingerfeld,
Goldsmith, Remorse. Gold Cure, and
Dixieline to make up the field. Owing
to his good race in the mud at Grave
send. Major Daingerfield was consider
ed unbeatable, and for that reason ruled
an odds on favorite in the betting.
Goldsmith was second choice, and,
while he had quite a following, his odds
receded. as did those of Dixieline. Gold
Cure and Remorse had little support,
except from the holiday crowd.
Daingerfeld All the Way.
From the time the barrier was lifted
until the finish was reached, Major Dain-
gerneld held the others safe. Shaw
sent him right to the front and for six
furlongs he was attended by Remorse.
with Goldsmith running third. several
lengths away and Dixieline last.
In the far turn Goldsmith went up to
but Shaw let out a wrap
on Major Daingerfield and the race was
over. He drew away easily from Gold
smith and came home the easiest kind
Of winner by eight lengths. Goldsmith
finished an easy second with Dlxieline
third The latter closed strong at the |
end but could not get up.
