the cOlOrS OF rat Murphy, was tne
surprise of the racing program at AS
cot yesterday Dutiful formerly be-
longed to j. A. Weinberg. Yesterday
the gray horse at the sood odds Of 40
to / romped home winner in front
of Tim Payne second choice in the
betting, and Blissful, the 6 to ) ia
vorite
The fifth race on the card was the
4-year-olds and upward, a selling af-
fair at one mile. Blssful was made
favorite and was well played at to
and even money. The mare finished
third, after running her race. The
field was sent away to a perfect break
and under keen urging the gray
streak" took the lead. She stuck it
out gamely and was never headed.
Agnes Mack. who ran second in the
last race of the day, furnished another
surprise for Tie talent by losing after
having the race practically won. She
was well in front when the boy al
lowed her to swerve badly. Hersain
came up on the outside and beat Ag-
mes Mack a half length for first
money. Flo Manola was third.
The first race on the card brought
together as fine bunch of bologna
meat as ever graced the racing pro-
grams at Ascot. Tangible played for
a good thing. but went to the post
sore and unfit and wound up bad
third. Lauretta Phillips at to
turned up the winner. with July Gyp
third.
Ben Lear, always favorite, won the
second race from Sir Christopher and
Great Mogul. Ben Lears performance
was so far ahead of his last essay
when he was piloted by Jockey Law
renee that the judges suspended Law
renee indefinitely. In this race Nellie
May ran with shoes not in keeping
with the racing rules. Trainer Tomil-
son was ruled off for not reporting the
matter to the judges before the race.
The mile and sixteenth event, third
on the card, went to Position who
was held in the odds at 8 TO l high.
Capable, at to 1 for place. finished
second. Great Eastern, the favorite,
landed the show money after meeting
with all kinds of interference on the
first turn.
Harry Stover's Kenilworth captured
the fourth race at the liberal price
of to g with Judge Denton, the IA
vorite, second and Hilona third.
Track Notes
Tangible. the supposed real goods"
in the first, was away bad to a poor
start, and was pocketed and cut off
on the back stretch. At that he had no
chance from the fact that he went to
the post unfit.
Tab Lady Rowell. She showed a
world of early speed and will about win
the next time out.
Ben Lear came to life suddenly.
Last time out he could not raise a re-
spectacle gallop. Yesterday he was
eased up by several lengths The re-
versal cost Jockey Lawrence an in
definite suspension.
The judges were not satisfied with
The running OF Nellie May and ordered
farrier to take off her plates. The
mare could not get up a respectable
gallop after being heavily played by
the public on the strength of some
fast workouts.
Ledatrix showed early speed and ran
as if short.
Hogg on Capable put up a mild ride.
The horse finished on his own courage.
Borghesi is q good future prospect
and is worth remembering.
The probable chances are that Hide
brand will not be seen in the saddle
again at Ascot. The judges took action
in regard to his rough riding and
warned him. Rather than to take
chances Of being suspended he has de-
cided to not ride here any more.
That Dutiful is a good horse has
been demonstrated when he beat a good
field yesterday. That the victory was
a popular one was shown when Pat
Murphy received an ovation from his
ANiiSN iipl oNlilNAAt winch NlilCu ell Lllt
bar with a round of drinks. Murphy
took Dutiful away from McCafferty in
a selling race.
Agnes Mack. after showing a world
of early speed, blew up in the stretch
and was firing badly The distance
was a trihe too far for her
ethel Scruggs closed a world of
ground and found the distance too far.
