There was. plenty of excitement at the
Benning track yesterday afternoon. the big
crowd being worked up considerably over
the finish OF several events. In the jump
ing race seven horses stayed on their feet
until the next to the last jump had been
reached, and In going over that obstacle
four Of them went. down In heap, leaving
three to straggle home in the money. Con-
over made the running all the way and won
by dozens Of lengths. After going over the
Liverpool the second time the jockeys APP
parently decided that all the trouble was
over and made "a dash for the next hurdle
in a bunchaz Goodnight got. over first and
horses and riders spreading out over the
track like handful of marbles. Schtfl. on
| Goodnight. was quite seriously shaken up.
but after an examination 1t was round that
no bones were broken.
In the fourth race Redfern. on Highlan-
| der. and Fuller, on Meistersinger, had a
great battle down the stretch, and but Tor
the good sense Of the former the latter
would probably have been thrown over the
fence into the inf1eId. Highlander Is a hard
brute to manage, and in the rush at the
finish bore over on Meistersinger to dan
gerous extent, Fullers leg was scraplng
the fence and he cried out in alarm. which
made Redfern pull UP his mount allowing
Meistersinger to get out of the jam and TO
win the race by a head. Jockeys, as rule,
get SO excited at the finish that they can
| see nothing but victory In sight and care
nothing for the other riders, but Redfern's
good Judgment not only landed his horse in
second place. but he also received cOngrat-
ulations from many horsemen for his
action. Had he kept on an accident would
| have Resulted and Highlander would have
| been disqualified. @
three favorites got the decision, while the
other winners were fairly well backed.
