His price was to l. He beat Found. Is
to 1. and Lady Strathnlore. TO s. very
easily; The mile and one-sixteenih MAS run
in l:a7is. the best time made for the distance
this season.
Found had los pounds--a heavy Lpey
Fsuntleroy, up. She was giving Little Scout
seventeen pounds on the Club Members
when she gave him beating.
Found got off well and set the pace. Lingo
Snd Lady Strathmorc followed. both under
Heavy restraint Little Scout and kunja
At the three-cighths pole sheehsn sent
Scout along on the rail- He passed Lingo
end Strathmore. The latter was taken
bsek to last place they turned ont of the
back stretch.
Found tired at the stretch entry and
Scout Made a fast move on the outside.
Strathntbre was in third place and looked
like a dertain winner. as Troxler had her
IN i'm hiS lap. She was running easily when
!. he Set h9r down. however. She failed to re-
4spcnd aststronely as the previous conscrvs-
> ton of her specd would lead close OBJ
server to imagine. She. did close bit. but
Sheehan let out link on Scout and he
rolled AWAY. Found easily beat Strath-
more for the place.
Strathmore and Lingo did not respond
when called on, though both were well
saved to the stretch. Kunja ran dull race
and ccn DO better.
The other races were very evenly run and
favorites had good day. Hilee. at !; to
2. and Lunar. at to 10, ran nicely. VII
sens good rail ride helped Lunar a lot
with n clever rider Ladas would have
shut her off the stretch and won.
SheriYhed won the last race easily.
fXiickasha was rated to the stretch. which
seemed a mistake. She could not hope to
beat Cherished in the stretch and. with
eighty-three pounds up. should have gone
on and made the pace.
