ted Miss May BOWdtSn 10 act as pace
maker to the head of the stretch, where
he moved UP and assumed command,
In the swim to the wire Lord Badge
outpaddled Miss May and fioated under
the wire four lengths in front and
could have made it forty lengths with
slight efforts. Miss Bowdish was sec
ond, beating Graphite for the place by
nose.
Everybody laid off the other races,
with occasional piking chances, and
saved up their money to bet on Lord
Badge. When the plunging brigade
ambled into the ring for the purpose OF
breaking the books on the win of Lord
Badge they were dumfounded to note
the liberality of the bookmakers, who
laid 1 to against the chances of Lord
Badge.
Mary Glenn proved to be another
high-class mudder by running away
from her field in the fifth race. Mary
was so good that she won by five
lengths and was eased down at the
end. Durbar, the disappointment of
several outs. was second and Kinsman
was third. This race was procession,
several lengths separating each morse
all the way around.
Lehero, at Is to 1, won the first race
handily from Brannigan and MY sur
prise. Lehero ran a remarkable race
in that he was away poorly and was
never prominent until in the stretch,
where Jockey Kunz set him down FOR
the money. Barranca led the field into
the stretch, but quit almost as fast as
Smithy Kane is accustomed to do.
Kumiss Wins
The second race was won by Kumiss,
which finished stoutly and ran over
Mazapan, which led into the stretch
by four lengths. Kumiss raced under
the wire six lengths ahead of Mazapan,
which stopped badly and only beat
Kougrock by a length for the place.
Bauble was away in mess and could
never get up, finishing twelfth and
last.
Kumiss and Bauble opened as equal
choices at IS and were strongly played,
each closing at 16 to o. hum1ss won
and Bauble ran last. Kougrock car
ried a ton of public gold on show
chances and many of the tickets cashed
on this race were made valuable be-
cause of the mud running procl1Vitles
of this one.
Seed Cake had slight difficulty in de-
feating Babe B and Turkey Foot for
the honors in the third race. Babe b
showed great speed for half a mile,
but gave way to Seed Cake in the
stretch. Miss Berg and Lisbia were
left at the post, both refusing to break
when the barrier sprung.
Pachuca won the final event. Patsy
Brown was favorite in the opening
betting, but a continuous and heavy
play on the chances of Pachuca forced
this one into favoritism as the odds
on Patsy drifted. Patsy Brown led the
field into the stretch, but Pachuca
closed stoutly and won by four lengths.
Patsy was second and Bailey third
Dixelle was greatly fancied and was
played down from IS to 5s and many
of the bookies took occasionn to get
on a few hundred of their own, but
Dixelle was never prominent in the rum
ming.
