OF THISTLE STAKES Al SHEEPSHEAD BAY

lislleS New Track Record
for Nine Furlongs.
Special Dispatch to The Cali.


SHEEPSHEAD BAY, June 24.-vet-
eran turfmen rubbed their eyes when
they saw the hollow victory achieved
by Walter Jennings Dainty in the
Thistle stakes to-day at the Coney Is
land Jockey Club course. A few days
ago she was beaten by Sheriff Bell
after q dead heat, which Dainty should,
undoubtedly, have won. In the run off
on that occasion she failed to stay,
Notwithstanding the race was run TO
suit her superior sprinting ability.
Few who saw her defeated in the run
off considered that she had a chance
to-day and Whorler. which won the
Brooklyn Derby last year, was made
heavy favorite. His defeat was de-
cisive, however, for after running
prominently in company with Gay Boy
he gave every evidence of being in dis
tress. Dainty passed both leaders as
if they were anchored, eventually win
ming in a style that was astonishing.
Not alone did Dainty win handily,
but she established new track record,
running nine furlongs IN 1852. The
track record was :52 1-5, made by His
Eminenee last year Two horses ran
remarkably good races in the event
won by Dainty. These were Buttons
and Bob Murphy. both or whom were
off badly. Both showed great flight
of speed. Buttons lasted long enough
to earn second money. Summaries:
