much in evidence yesterday at Ascot
His good Faraday gray colt oxford wor
the three-year-old purse event, Pasa
dena captured the three-year-old condi
tional race and Snow Bound finished
second in the two-year-old dash fol
f1llies.
oxford and Pasadena were always
favorites to win their races while Snow
Bound was held at to 1 in the bet
ting.
One of the best cards of the present
season was presented at the local track
yesterday and another large crowd was
on hand to take chances with the fif.
teen bookmakers who cut in. The
ring was flooded with money and with
four favorites winning the blockmer
quit far behind on the day. Silver
Sue at to 10, winner of the first race
was heavily played and she rewarded
her hackers by scoring an easy victory
over Snow Bound and Sizz. The lat
ter was one of the extreme outsiders
in the betting.
Jackfull upset the books by annexing
the second race on the card at the good
odds of Is to 1.
Hans Wagner receding from to
to 4 to 1. led his field from flag fall to
wire and disappointed those who un-
wisely backed Orchan into favoritism
sending him to the post a to first
choice.
Sinicado, backed to win the last race
on the card, closing at to 2, after
opening at As, took a bunch of money
out of the ring by finishing five lengths
in front of the next nearest horse.
Silver Sue the Best
The days sport opened with two
year-old race, for fillies over furlongs
of ground. Silver Sue. best liked by
the talent, forced fierce pace the first
quarter, then gradually pulled away
and won as the rider pleased. Snow
Bound was slow to begin and was in
a pocket swinging into the stretch. She
got clear sailing near the paddock
gate and easily wore down Sizz in the
run for home.
The one mile selling affair for three
year-olds and upward, second on the
card, drew out eleven of the most ordi-
nary kind. Jackfull, played for a
good thing, going to the post at s tc
] having been backed from Is to 1, got
away none too well but made ground
fast on the back stretch. He took the
lead at the quarter pole and held the
field safe the rest of the distance. On
the end he appeared tired enough to lie
down. Hersain made her move a
trifie too late but she got up in plenty
of time to take the place from Maggie
Mackey.
The mile purse race, third on the pro-
gram, went to Oxford. Sir Brillar set
the pace for six furlongs. Oxford
trailed close up and upon entering the
stretch assumed the lead. From this
point home it was easy for the Nc
Laughlin colt and he won cleverly. Sir
Brillar was much the best of the others
and beat Judge Denton four lengths
for the place.
Hans Wagner was fresh and good,
although the betting would have led
one to believe that he had broken a
leg before leaving the paddock. On
class he stood out by himself yet his
price receded from to to to 1. The
talent tried to make Orchan win and
hammered his price from 4 to to to
1. Hans Wagner got away full in his
stride and led his field all the way
round. Glennevis, in a long stretch
drive Just managed to nip Orchan for
the place. The latter in turn was third
length and a half in front of Sinner
Simon.
