When Hildebrand Gives the
Potomac Colt His Head
He Wins HandiIy.
Special Dispatch to The can.

SARATOGA, Aug. 19-Racing was
carried on to-day over a fast but d
dusty track in the presence of a large
attendance. The most important race
of the afternoon was the Huron handi-
cap, for three-year -olds, worth $2030 to
the winner.
n. Dyment's colt Fort Hunter, win
rer of the Kenilworth Derby, finished
first. Fort Hunter carried the top
weight, 122 pounds. After Spring had
led for six furlongs Hildebrand gave
Fort Hunter his head and he strode to
the front without an effort St. Valen-
tine was second and Spring third.
The disappointment of the stake was
the defeat of John Sanford's Adriutha,
which did not show the same electric
rush at the finish which she has dis
played in previous races. Summary:
