came again however. and Astarita was close upon

neck behind Grde- These three fillies headed the
field.
Irish Lad was fourth at this point. and as Girdle
carried Astarita so wide that she boted almost 10

on the rail. Girdle. having done all the mischief
she could, retired to the dust 10 emerge no more,
leaving Dazzling for few strides in the lead.
But the strong. powerful colt that had had clear
sailing was too much for the fleet fily that had
been so bufreted about and under Turner's fierce

VINO had gradually improved his position until Odom
was able to land him two lengths before Mizzen,
who made up lot Of ground after his misfortune
Africander closed well too. finishing in fifth place.
The race was worth $4,000 Il. cash. with a 81 500
piece Of gold plate added. AS the conditions called
for sweepstakes. the winner took all. 1t is a re-
rnarkabe coincidence that the Saratoga Special was
won last year by Mr. whitney's Goldsmith ridden
by the same Jockey who rode his sons horse to-
dag, and that the time the same IN each
race-1:6s l-5
Harry Payne Whitney backed his horse TO the
extent Of sloeo Sir VOORHEES, will in all probability
be unable &c run again this year. Shaw and Odom
both complained 70 the stewards OF the foul riding
but the Judge seemed unable to shed any light on
the case and no action was taken.
Aarmis won the Travers Stakes of $4,000 from q
neld OF seven other three-year-lds. including
Hyphen. the conqueror of Major Daingerfied and
Arsenal, winner of the Metropolitan Handicap The
winner ran IN the colors Of l. V. Bell, who bought
