Thus It fell out that the FarandOle colt had
quite as easy time of 1t as he has had in his
previous contests The half dozen that were not

track record Considering the fact that he was
never hurried and that Burns was looking
around from the last quarter pole, his per
torrance was really the best the public had
seen. Waterbok gave d good account of him
self, and beat Teronese for the place in a sharp
drive that lasted from the head Of the stretch.

\the place. The latter was preferred at even
money.
