Special Dispatch to The Call

Special Dispatch to The Call
sHEEPSHEAD BAY, Sept. g. The
feeling of the regular racegoer to-day
was one Of satisfaction, inasmuch as
there was an absence of the enormous
crowds which invaded the grounds at
the Coney Island Jockey Club course
on Saturday and Monday. Still specu-
lation was brisk and the volume of bet
ting on the last three races was large.
Two decidedly unpleasant incidents of
the day were the serious injuries in
| flicted upon Jockey Raynor, who rode
, Dekaber in the fourth race, and the
busting of n blood vessel by Cock Rob-
in, one of two horses which started in
the Oakdale Cup, a steeplechase for
horses ridden by gentlemen riders.
With respect to the injury inflicted
upon Rayner, the stewards announced
they could not get sufficient evidence to
I be able to punish either Jack Martin or
Hildebrand, who were the two jockeys
nearest to Rayner when his mount De-
kaber was forced against the rails. De-
kaber finished pulled up. Her riders
left leg had been so gashed by the
fence rail as to be cut in two places and
IL was necessary to lift him out of the
saddle at the paddock gate and take
him to the hospital tent. Meanwhile
Pulsus, at 512 TO 1 and well backed. had
surprised the talent by leading all the
way and winning by a length and a
half from Marmee, with the favorite,
Cloverdale. running much below expec-
tations. Major Daingerfield was run
ming so strong as they entered the
stretch that it seemed he had chance,
but he curled UP after that. The time
Of the race 2:06, is fair. 1t was the
first race won this season by Frederick
Gebhard, who is the owner of PulSuS.
