form today, capturing the Cypress handi-
cap the feature event at CITY Park. with

home under good ride by Jockey Garner
and landed by a length. The Corrigan entry
carried a world of money. the adds being
hammered down from 9 to : at the opening
to to , at post time. The public a so fav-
ored James Reddick, the three ear-old OF
Charles Ellison. who gave away Jumps OF
weight to every other starter in the race.
James Reddck made his usual game bid
for the money. but with his best effort. even
by cutting the corner at the turn into the
homestretch. he was a poor second.
Goldic was taken wide on entering tho
straight but when Garner set his mount
down there never a doubt about his
winning Bellindian thought to have a
chance by the long-shot players and they
pounded his odds down al post time BelliR-
dian attempted to race with Godic for tho
first six furlongs. but the Corrigan horse
easily outgamed him at every stage. Shaw

great burst and passed Bellindian out for
third money.

count of being a two-year-old. made his
run just before the last turn was made. and
after being carried to the outside, drew
away with little effort and won going away.

next to the inside rail throughout, and had
no possible chance.
Ralbert won the first race, creating con-
sternation in the ranks of hundreds who

Goldproof, which ruled IL to 20 in the bet

| to be the case, Goldproof ran himself OUT
