NEW YORK. June 19.-On a track
sloppy with mud. seven races were run
at Sheepshead Bay this afternoon. and
once mare the layers got it in the neck
through the success of four favorites
and two second choices. There was also
killing with Maiden, who was played
down to eights.
The Swift Stakes for three-year-old
at seven furlongs looked like an inter
esttng affair on paper, but when Old
England, Yankee. and Leonid were
scratched. the affair was a virtual walk
over for Hatasoo. Inasmuch as third
money seemed about to go begging, how
ever, ". c. DAILY sagaciously added
Trump, rather than let the 5000 escape.
Hatasoo was asked to pick up TIC
pounds, and for that reason Mr.. Feather
stone expressed regret that Old Eng
land. with 127, and Yankee, with 122,
did not start. The flly opened at the
prohibitive odds of l to 10, but receded
to ] to s, as there was a good play on
Trump, from twelves to tens. Bon Mot.
the only other starter, went up to
twelves.
Hatasoo rushed away from the others

but Father Bill got his 5000. and did not
murmu..
Herbert Likes Mud.
Herbert, notorious rlud-runner. was
In his clement in the handicap at mile
and a furlong. The blue pencil reduced
the field to four. Herbert going to the
post TO favorite. Monarka went
up from to to Is to 5. while Sadie S.
was lowered to 31s from fives
Herbert shouldered 126 pounds. He
got away last, but Smith whipped him
going around the lower turn, and he had
lead of two lengths as he entered
the back stretch. After that he won
as he pleased by five lengths in the
good time of 1:55 3-5.
Monarka had to be driven through the
stretch to keep the place by a neck
from Sadie s.
One for Washington.
Toscan, a sterling colt by Hastings. |
showed his heels to a good lot of two |
year-olds in the sixth race at five and |
one-half furlongs. The talent made AL |
sono the favorite at to 5, while Tos-
can was second choice at 3Ik. Blue
ID
Girl, was backed down to fives in spite
OF the fact that 122 pounds looked to be
a heavy impost in the going
Once away Toscan made such a fast
pace that the others were stood on their
heads.
Toscan was the winner by six lengths
in 1907 3-5. Martin pulling him up to a
walk. Alsono struggled home in the
place length ahead of Athelroy, who
beat Blue Ribbon by length in the last
few strides.
Femesole, a prohibitiye favorite at
to 5. dumped the talent in the first
event, selling race at three quarters
of q mile. Her defeat was principally
due to a poor start, as Graden, the Sec
ond choice, got away running and, re-
yelling in the mud. was never caught,
the favorite, who was the same distance
before Military.
Telescope. a half brother to Com
mando. was tipped as a good thing and
was played from 25 to L down to r.
He was practically left at the post, but
he got up to his field by fine turn OF
speed and was fifth.
