| a crowd of $4,000 turf enthusiasts turned
| out to enjoy a healthful outing But the
picking of winners was not an easy task by
any means, the books breaking more than
even on the six results.
Frederick Johnson's Entree, a receding
favorite, won the Reapers stakes, for three
year-olds, one mile and three sixteenths,
! after rough journey He was knocked
back at the start, when Garner cut across
| the field with California King, but at the
far turn Radtke saw chance to get the
rail by driving his horse in front of IL. p.
Nhitney's Ironsides, IL to s. and James b.
Pradys Make Witt, to 1, both OF whom
were tnterfered with. Then Radtke went
| on with Entree and took the race by three
parts of a length from Ironsdes, with
Moonshine. Is to 1, poor third. Miller,
| who rode Ironsides, made a protest of foul,
but it was not allowed. The time was
200 40.
Edward S. Burke, jr.'s w. H. Daniel. an
added starter, who was backed from Is
down to T. made all the running in the

when he won the first race for all ages at
six furlongs. He picked up 1877 pounds and,
quoted at to g. he simply made show of
his field, leading from start to finish. where
he passed the judges six lengths in front Of

pied with Penrhyn at 80 to 1. The time was

from 20 down to 10, won the steeplechase,
at about two miles, in walk. j. E. Wild

ond after queer-looking ride on the part
Of Butner: At that he only beat Tom
Cogan a head. Garter Knot fell on the
| backstretch at the first jump when he was
leading and going along nicely. The race
was run in 400 rs.
William Gersts Carew, go to l, stunned
the talent by taking the fifth event, at a

half in 1.39 As. Columbia Girl, to sec
