GRAVESEND, Sept 21 - Tommy
Burns rode two winners in one day, the
first time IL many weeks. On Funny Side,
after LetOla and Flammula had raced
with each other so fast that they tired,
Burns came along in the last half fur
long and she won under clever hand-rid-
ing. Burns other winning mount was on
Mamie Worth, which was the victim Of
some very rough riding when she last
ran
Not much Of a complimentary nature
can be said of the steeplechase. Tank
ard performed so badly that many could
not account for IL until they saw him pun
up very lame. Step Lightly landed bad
ly, and, in endeavoring 10 pull him to-
gether. Ray fell of. Cephalalgia refused
at the first jump. Faranlass fell at the
second and Gascar at the fifth. Manilian,
which al one time had a long lead, fell
at the last jump. Joseph E. Widener S
Borough came on an easy winner in slow
time. he had jumped badly repeatedly
Baron Pepper was second and The Ragged
