BRIGHTON BEACH RACETRACK,
n Y, July 22.-The Brighton Junior
Stakes, which was run on this track
this afternoon and won by the 20 TO
outsider, Accountant. ought by rights
TO have been productive of one OF the
best races of the year. Yet such are
the idiosyncracEes OF the racing game.
II Is hard to reason the matter out.
There were good two-year-olds enga ged; !;
good two-year-olds took part; Supertn-
tt tndcnt Willie Glare had the track in
splendid condition. but the fact remains
that Accountant won, ana in 1:14 40.
which the yeriest selling platter could
have beaten Oyama led down to the
baCkstretch. but ran out there. Ac-
ccuntant then came with a wet sail on
the outside and passing Albert F. and
Timber had little trouble In winning by
half a length. Pegasus came from the
rear of the bunch and finished second
and Don Diego. who ran a game, plod-
ding race. was only a head behind him
McKittredge ran his usual race, losing
many lengths TO commence with, but
closing fast in the stretch, and finishing
fourth a neck in the rear of Don Diego.
Coligny's Steeplechase.
Coligny won the Brighton steeplechase
somewhat easily. He was ridden by j.
O'Brien, who had sufficiently recovered
from his bad fall of Wednesday last to
do him Justice. and who rode him a
pretty race. He permitted Maiden and
HyIas to make the pace, and lay behind
within striking distance of them Half
way home he raced 10 the front and
easily had the foot Of Hylas. Grandpa
was third.
The Seashore Handicap. won by Wild
Mint, was almost as much of sur
prise az vas the Brighton Junior, though
Wild Mint was always held NJ to / He
has never before shown an ability to
stay, but today he went out in the lead
ard never permitted his nearest follow
er. ButtlinG. TO get within two lengths
of him Blandy fought out the issue
gamely, but the best he could do was
to get within half a length of ButtIing.
ChaIfonte was an odds-on favorite, and
was the only first choice 20 win. The
jumper. Collgny. was heavily played,
and closed almost. though not quite. as
close a favorite rs Hylas.
