great sprinter Roseben, an added starter
and carrying tho coIors OF L. o. Applcby,
showed a reoovery Of his old form by pick
ing up 1872 pounds and winning In q breesing
gallop in the fast time OF i;I2 2-5. Roseben
WIS hacked from Q to 1 down to ga 70 l and
with Lyme up he broke away from the post
without faltering and proceeded to Aet a
heartbreaktng pace.
Tho Ormondale Stables OrmOndale, last
years Futurity winner, a hot favorite at
8 TO 5, went after Roseben and hung to him
until the homestretch was reached. Then
o~rmondale backed up under h strain and
Neva Lee, a is to l shot, who had come
from nowhere, ran over the Ormond colt
and finished two lengths behind Roseben.
Ormondale was quitting rapidly, yet he
managed to beat Dolly Spanker. 30 TO 1, a
head for third money. Barney Schreiber's
DIR. Gardner, backed down to 7, was promi-
hen for about a half a mile and then stopped.
Hamburg Belle, who went up in the betting
to 7. never had a look in and was nowhere.
There was an upset in the first race, when
r. T. Wilson. Jr's Monfort, a Q to 5 favorite.
vas beaten a head by Tenaceo a 30 to 1
shot, who got up in the last jump. This
was a five and a half furlong dash for two
year-olds, Inc Somnus, 8 to I, made the
running for half a mile with Monfort, Magma
Stella and Bemay the c~ontenders for that
distance. The time was IO7.
The Inaugural Steeplechase, at about
two miles, proved the easiest sort of a victory
for the Brownleigh Park Stables English
jumper, John M. p. by Misunderstanding
Star, who was backed from 0 10 2 down to
0 to 5. He took the obstacles in splendid
fashion and was so much the best that he
was eased to a walk at the end. where he
defeated Belligerent, a 10 to I shot, by a
couple of lengths, in 4'o7. a new record for
the race.
T. Hitchcock, Jr's Orc. coupled with
Commandment at 5 TO I, was third. Delcan-
ter. II to 5, second choice, fell and so did
Standard Bearer and Vestment. Balzac,
well supported at ), threw his rider, Hueston,
who hung on to the bride and dragged
for a hundred yards before he let go.
Tn start in the fifth race undoubtedly
killed the chances Of John A. brakes Yves,
a ~ to S second choice. When the gate
went up IVES was left at the post, while
Hot Teddy, S to 1, with Miller up, was of
running. Donna, a 80 to 1 shot, was the
runner up to the end OF the back stretch,
where Vino, even money ~favorite, attempted
to overhaul the leader.
YVES med nWDllS was training alOnR many
lengths back. apparently hopelessly beaten,
but he began to gain on the turn and when
Garner got him Strengthened out for nome
he showed a brilliant turn Of speed and to
many Of the spectators appeared to get up
in time to win by a nose. The judges gave
the race to Hot Teddy by a few inches, with
Yves in the place, a half a length in front Of
Vino. With an ever break We would
have won in a gallop. The mile was turned
in l.39 2-S.
c. d. Henshall's Ginette, o to 5 favorite,
won the last race, at a mile and a sixteenth
on the grass, after chasing the Oneck Stables
Kiamesha, backed down to fOurs, for nearly
a mile. The French mare had a length
and a half the best of il, with Barney Schrei-
ber's Nealon, 10 to 1, a poor third. The race
was run IN in 1.t8 SIS. only three-fifths Of a
second behind the track record, held jointly
by Dolly Spanker and Entree.
In spite OF the defeat Of four favorites.
the ring did not win a great deal Of money
for the reason that Roseben, Electioneer
and Hot Teddy all were heavily played.
