MORRIS PARK, Oct Rapid
Water took Dolly Spanker into camp
easily in the Dixiana stakes to-day at
Westchester. Rapid Water was a slight
favorite. After the race the spectators
wondered why as good as even money
was quoted against him. Dolly Spank
er had no excuse. Shaw got him away
well and made the running to the
stretch, where Rapid Water moved up
with ease. Dolly Spanker then stopped
badly.
The Manhattan handicap, at six fur
| longs down the hill, nearly furnished
the biggest kind Of surprise. Race
King, which went to the post at so to l
and which was at one time at 100 to 1,
raced to the front and led by three
lengths. He held his lead until the last
fifty yards, where Broadcloth, the sec
ond choice, got up in time to beat the
good thing scant length for first
money. Castalian should have been
second, but was badly fouled by Broad
cloth and had to pull up. Burns made
no claim.
Sidney c. Love, the favorite in the
opening event, won from Thistle
Heather handily.
The second race furnished a red-hot
finish between Candida and Waterlight,
the former winnig by a nose. Summary:
