an Actress was withdrawn in the final
The final of the feature event proved
heavy betting race. Both Anton and
Roman Actress had scores of support
ers. The talent played the son of
Rocker to take the deciding trial and
they sent him to the slips a ( to
shot. 1t was an easy victory for the
favorite, as. he assumed the lead from
the slips and never gave the Actress
chance to get on the game.
The winner of last weeks event,
Agile Squirt. ran up to form, but was
unfortunate in getting a severe trial
in the third round. In the semi-final
Roman Actress had no difficulty in
leading and defeating Squirt.
Favorites ran closer to form yes
terday than they have for the last three
months But two short ends scored
in the rundown of the Champion event,
and these two were at close odds. Bon
Ami was made false favorite over
Freeport at to and King sold
on the long end over Race King.
In the Open stake some good cours-
ing was witnessed by the large crowd.
Foxhunter was looked upon by the
talent as the most likely winner and
the big black greyhound sustained the
judgment of the favorite players, as
it outran everything in this event.
Louis Lagarmisino's good greyhound
Real American, ran surprisingly well
and took second place. In the semi
final the son of Real Article. after an
undecided course with Four Paw, was
slipped to a very strong hare. which
took the greyhounds all over the field.
This race proved too much for Lagar-
misinos dog and it was withdrawn.
George Sherman's entries ran we'll,
but they were unfortunate in getting
hares that took all the steam out of
them.
