The San Francisco call., 1904-06-05
Hildebrand and Lyme
Ride Their Hardest
at the Finish.


GRAvESEND, June 4.-without
doubt the most interesting race of the
afternoon was the Broadway stakes,
for ree-year-olds, in which Highball.
admitted to be last years best two
year-old, was for the first time this
season required to meet only colts Of his
own age. instead of being pitted against
the best horses in training.
At the start there was a cry of dis
may when Highball was apparently
not ready, yet he could not have lost
much ground. for Hildebrand at once
drove him up to the others, and with
Montresson setting the pace and Bryn
Mawr third, a pretty contest was going
on. Dolly Spanker was being ridden a
waiting race. The pace was apparently
good, though not fast, yet at all times
Bryn Mawr was close enough up to
win. He generally drops far behind. On
this occasion he was slightly pocketed,
and on the far turn both Highball and
Montresson outran him. AS they turned
into the stretch Highball cut across
behind Montresson and took the rail,
while Bryn Mawr came up in the CEN
ter of the track. Apparently he was
winning easily, but Hildebrand began
TO ride Highball hard and inch by inch
he closed. 1t was not until fifty yards
from the finish that Lyme on Bryn
Mawr realized that he was in danger
Of defeat. Then he worked hard for a
few strides, and with Highball closing
rapidly the two pasesd the judges a
short head apart, Bryn Mawr in front.
