Three Winners

Jockey Fuller was the bright particular
star at Aqueduct yesterday. He rode

ing in the Nassau stakes for three-year-
olds at a mile and Il sixteenth. when he
literally stole the big end of the purse on

When Starter Cassidy sent the trio away
Gaviota was slow to begin. Odom made
the pace with Rostand, but when the head
Of the long stretch was reached Redfern
went to the front with the Keene filly,
both boys using their whips. Fuller
turned for home on the outside, but at
the last furlong pole he took Gaviota to
the inner rail and tEen went to the whip.
Redfern, meanwhile, had succeeded in
holding Odom safe, and sat down for
hand-riding finish. He never saw Full
Ter until the latter on even terms
with him. at a time when it was too late
to get an extra squirt from Stolen Mo-
ments. SO. in desperate drive Fuller
landed Gaviota the winner by a head in

by three lengths

the running, driving Mount Hope, $50 to

fuTlongs straightaway, with Riverdale the
fayorite at to , Sheer was also well
played at to l because Fuller had the
mount. but this time the clever jockey
