Sydney Paget's Young

fremont Stakes.
Belmore Leads Out The
Quail for Brooklyn
Derby.
SPECIAL DISPATCH 10 THE CALL

NEW YORK, June 16.-Water Pearl,
that already had demonstrated his abil-
ity to race over dry track, proved
heavy going. With 129 pounds on his
back Sydney Paget's colt ran through
the slushy mud and in romp won
the fremont Stakes, worth sS125.
Horsemen now rate Water Pearl one
of the greatest colts ever foaled in this
country. They say he is as good as
were Sysonby and Artful two years
ago when they were as old as the son
of Watercress is now
The defeat of John E Madden's The
Quail by Belmore in the Brooklyn
Derby was largely due to the condi-
tion of the track. The Quail is dry
track horse He was badly beaten over
a heavy track at Belmont Park and it
was a surprise when the bookmakers
made him 1 to favorite. Belmore is
a noted mudder. He showed his liking
for a heavy track last season when he
led Ormondale to the last furlong pole
in the Futurity. Belmore carried the
bulk OF the money bet and The Quail
receded to to 10 at post time. Bel
more went to the front from the start
and led The Quail past the stand at
the end of the first half-mile by two
lengths. Summary:
