SILVER SUE RUNS
O|SAPP0INTINGLY
FAV0RITE FINISHES BACK IN
BUNCH
Vino Wins Feature Race at Ascot From
chsntilIy and W. H. Carey, Pop
ular Choice, Failing TO Run
Among First Three
By Jav Davidson

Silver sue ran disappointingly yes
terday m the feature race at Ascot
and only the short price chalked up
against her chances saved the talent
from a good drubbing.
Sue was made faVorite over Vino and
Chantily, both of which figured to
beat her. and with Milleh up was be
1ieved to be the goods. but she could
not get inside the 1928 division
Racing luck played an important
part in this race. however, and the
Williams flly should not he charged
with the sole blame for losing. She
was cut off on the first turn and held
q prisoner until IT was too late for
her to make a bid.
Vino was off nicely and raced leisure
" i'm third place until into the stretch.
when he moved up. taking the lead
without any great opposition from
Stoessel and Chantilly.
Once in the lead the son Of Fresno
showed the bunch the way TO the wire.
1t was a mere canter for him from
the final quarter pole.
Chantilly was heavily played by the
pikers and form players and ran into
second place after leading into the
Stretch The pace ruined his chances.
w. II. Carey was easily third after
making a game struggle for honors in
the stretch and. although neglected in
those behind him.
Sue was beaten in one-half second
better time than she showed in the
Santa Catalina selling stakes and car
ried fifteen pounds more weight.
Money Muss Wins
p. c. Donaleche, who put Ignacio
over at a fair price Tuesday, repeated
the operation yesterday sending
firgt in oa In O
race.
Money Muss was the class of his
field and ran accordingly. Getting
away second, ne forged at once to the
front and nothing in the field behind
him could get within shouting distance
afterwards.
SO strong was the fancy for Money
Muss that the short price offered in the
first betting was sent to evens at post
time.
Prince Ching, overlooked in the bet
ting. was bang-up second by a big
majority and Needful, coming from
nowhere, was third without an ef-
fort
Doctor c. won the second race in
spreadeagle style after Dixelle was
forced to pull up by the barrier which
was torn loose by Pyrrho and aired
like a pennant throughout the race.
Doctor c. was we'll liked by the spec
ulators and his win was no fluke, de-
spite the Interference with DiXelle.
Mi Reina was away first and led
the procession into the stretch. Doctor
G. made his move at this point and
ran over Mi Reina, going away from
the field like a bullet.
DiXelle slowly moved down his field
and finished full of run, but was at a
great disadvantage in trying to over
take Doctor C,'s lead. DiXelle ran the
best race, was probably the best horse
in the running and might have won
with start on even terms.
Huguenot Beaten
Bavarian came to life in the fourth
race and won in hollow style. The
Huguenot was made favorite for the
race ana was believed to hold the race
at his mercy, but chucked it good and
hard in The drive through the stretch.
Bavarian lost no time in going to the
front and avoiding possibilities of in
reference, With a long lead at the
first quarter Bavarian ran easily to the
Wire
Potrero Grande was played as if the
race was already run and finished
strongly, but was not good enough
to catch Bavarian.
Miller put up a great finish with
Grande and sent him into second place
Alencon, the favorite, won the fifth
event from the post to the wire, max
ing Il runaway race of it,
Cutter was the popular choice at. 6s
and was heavily played across the
beard. Fischer manipulated the Wern-
Eerg tilly with his usual skill and expe-
rienced no difficulty in keeping her
in second place, but Alencon was at
his best and untamable by anything
against him.
Alsono ran into the money after lay
ing away back until into the stretch.
His speed was saved for the finish, but
the Blute gelding could not come back
to his race against Alencon in the
early days Of the meeting and barely
ran into the show place.
S. NJ Williams added 1926 to his
bank roll by sending Lacene, the popu-
lar choice, across the wire first in the
final event of the day.
Lacene was we'll liked by the specu-
latively inclined and carried ton of
money. pugan had the mount and
showed his usual skill in rating the
Ingoldsby hlly at the head of the pro-
cession in easy manner
Boots Duruell showed another like
ly filly in Myrtle u. which was woe
fully neglected in the betting and ran
second. Astraea was played for a good
thing at S. and forced down TO 6s and
landed in the show position.
Handicap Today
Tho feature today will be the usual
weekly offering of the jockey club in
the form Of a $500 free handicap at
one mile.
Hans Wagner is assigned top weight
and will go TO the post as favorite i'm
this event Honus has shown rare
form since the meeting opened and
has performed exceptionally well.
This is ON time. however, that Ho-
nus will have something to do to win
and will hardly accomplish the trick
Druid has shown better form than
Wagner at this distance and has trav-
eled the mile in 1:4O Nat, the best
shown at Ascot this season.
The Weinberg tilly is right on edge
now and has enough class to go with
anything stabbed at Ascot Fischer
viii pilot her and this is an advantage
as the youngster is riding IN his best
form now.
Wagner can step a mile I'm 1:40 if
pushed, but whether he can do It any
more handily than Druid is doubtful.
