The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1902-08-14

and the Raiah Takes Horse Review
Stake.
NEW YORK, Aug 13-The events
OF the grand circuit meeting at the
Brlghton track today proved to be the
most exciting to date. The attendance
was large and speculation heavy, the
books doing a large business. The first
race, the 2:03 pace, was on the novelty
plan, and Major Muscovite was a hot
cholce at to 10 for the heat. The
geld1ng chestnut had the pole and
started or at merry pace to win,
with Winfield Stratton and Major
Muscovite close up. The fight all the
way around was close, but the chest
nut came away and won by two
lengths. Sphinx finished sixth
In the second heat, The Bishop was
the choice, and this time the talent
made no mistake. Winfield Stratton
led to the half, when the favorite
caught him, and with Tom Nolan, the
trio shot down the stretch, The Bishop
winning by two lengths, with Nolan
second. Strange to say, Sphinx S was
a prohibitive favorite at 1 to 4 for the
second heat, and as soon as he got the
word he went like a flash, but was
soon caught by Major Muscovite, and
the pair went like a team to the seven
furlong pole, where Sphinx S came
away and won. The judges fined
for the first heat.
Hiram Woodruff Purse.
The $4,000 Hiram Woodruff purse for
the 2:20 trotting class, was most ex-
cltlng race. Before the first heat Dulce
Cor SOLO at even money against the
field. She proved a counterfeit and
was never formidable. The heat was
battle between Wilque and Patchen
Maid, the former winning by a length
Wllque was now the choice at 4 to /.
At the post Dulce Cor shot out and
was at Wilque's saddle at the turn,
with Chase at her wheel and all tap
ped, they passed the half and came
into the stretch punched.
1t was close finished, Chase winning
by half a length. Chase was made
the choice at 100 to 65. and in another
close and exciting battle he beat
Wilque by small margin. Chase
was now a prohibitiye choice, and he
led to the top of the stretch, when
he tired and Wilque won by half a
length. The final heat Wilque won as
he pleased.
Horse Review Stake.
The $4,000 horse review stake for
three-year- old trotters proved to be the
greatest race of the season for the
class. nine colts and FLIES coming up
for the word. The rSols before the
hrst heat were The Rajah, 500; Wy
gent Jr., 500; the field, $1Oo. John
Mack had the pole and kept it we'll
up the back stretch. He was soon
Joined by The Rajah and Vyzant, and
the three shot up the back stretch
and around the top turn, but once in
the stretch The Rajah came away
with an electric rush winning by two
lengths from John Nc. He won the
next two heats with equal ease, taking
the third in 2:14%. This is the best
three-year-old record of the season.
The zRajah won SO easily that he looks
like the champion three-year- of
next year. He was bred byAS. De Rid
der. of Louisville, KY, who still owns
him.ssi
The amateur race was won by Mabel
Onward in very close contest by
half length in each heat.
