Works a Mile.


In force yesterday morning and. taken
altogether. the best bunch of work OF
the season was accomplished. The
track was in very fair shape and is
rapidly acquiring that resiliency so
much sought after by trainers OF race
horses.
The first animals to. put in an ap-
pearance. shortly after Z o'clock, were
Rejected and Alta Stacy. ridden by
Fears and Thomas. respectively. They
worked three-eighths Of a mile in :3Sh.
going to the quarter In PAX. Rejected.
in a nice finish. finished half a length
ahead OF the little native-bred mare.
Socialist. with Piggott up. cantered
eighth. He was then set going again
and ran from the three-rurlong pole to
the same mark in las. The time of the
first eighth was :13; the quarter. :25is;
three-eighths. :3s. and the ve-eighths.
1903 As. From the half-mile pole to the
stand was covered by the big bay in
:504-5. Socialist started out at a ter
rife clip but tired perceptibly toward
the end OF the mile.
Time Center cantered.
Carter II. Harrison. Jr.. traversed
mile In 1:4SH, going easily. The first
six furlongs were caught in 1:19.

with the white ghost" lying last.
When the animals got going three of
their drivers forgot time and pace. and
the passion OF racing took possession
OF them. giving the spectators a chance
e. witness finish which is not likely
g. be equalied on race day.
At the three-quarter pole ali with the
exception OF waldo J.. which was still
behind. could have been covered with
the prov.roial blanket. At the head
OF the stretch the Fiddle" died away
and tn. issue was desperately fought
out by Abdine and wayboy. Almost
To the wire the former had slight ad-
vantage. but in the very nick OF time
Wayboy. by supreme effort OF game
ness. forged 10 the front and finished
ahead by matter Of inches in 2:20 As.
