Valdez. the winner, had inJerfered with them be
tween the last two hurdles IT did look II
The interference was serious. and the claims
not allowed. MCGrathiana Prince led the field to
the very last hurdle. Then Valdez drew up
him and. after the last hurdle. shot away and won
easily by three lengths. McCirathiana Prince
four lengths before Fabius, and closed a practt-
cJy even favorite with the winner.
The best horse the race for three -year-olds
and over 70 be ridden by apprentices. which is
frequently not the in these races for mex
perienced riders. Irritable the favorite at
10 :, and justly so, and Fletcher just did have

make his own finish. Fifty yards from the wire it
looked if Irritable was beaten. but he pulled
himself together and managed TO get home head
before Kingraine. Colonel Bill We'll up with
