The meeting which ended at Brighton
Beach yesterday was the most successful
from every point Of view In tho history Of this
popular track. Tho attendance was greater
than ever before, the racing was of a vastly
improved quality and the public got the bulk
OF the money from q speculative standpoint,
In all 1850 races were run. In which sixty-four
~favorites were successful. Many heavily
played second choices and good things sup
ported at liberal odds were triumphant. so
that 1t Is safe TO say that only a handful OF
bookmakeTs made money on the session &C
the beach. Y. Hitchcock, Jr., heads the list
of winning owners with s3o.eeo to his credit

Brighton Steeplechase. which was worth
te,230 to the winner. Rams Horn won the
Brighton Handicap, placing W. s. Williams
second on the list with one race. Salvidere's
race yesterday was pronounced a marvel.
He picked up 128 pounds and gave fourteen
pounds to Penarris. twenty-nine to Charles
G.. Gates. seventeen to. iowric. thirty six
to Lord Lovat. thirty-four to Dan Buhre,
twenty-four to Remiss and James Crawford.
He won 80 easily that the sharps were ready
TO hail him as the champion two-year-old
But 1t must be remembered that in the Winged
Foot he had only a fair lot to beat.
1t 10 a remarkable fact that both salvidere
and Accountant. who won the big stakes
yesterday, were sold at the order of W. II.
Brown of Pittsburg before he realized OF what
value they really were. In fact. 1t Is said that
Brown Is now rather cut up about the matter
and wishes that he had not been so hasty.
Accountant sold for $4,000. but James b.
Brady has more than won him out. The
Filigrane colts share OF the Derby yester-
day was si2. 900. He earned SIS. 5s5 when
he took the Realization Stakes. with ~. $50
as a result Of success In the Tidal. As Brady
won some good bets on him In addition, II
can be seen that s45 900 was not such a big
price for the colt after all. Accountant
has other valuable engagements. and as Matt
Allen is handling him With his usual tkill.
IL looks as II Brady would have more bank
roIla tn ON IN n UNIV haf0ra the and Of the apa son
Brady did not bet much on Accountant yester-
day, for the stake was valuable enough with
out putting down checks at such prohibitive
odds. knowing how Brady has looked
at his horses in previous races. a large crowd
Of curious race goers gathered near the
judges stand. while the Derby was being
run, to watch Brady. who was in a private
box in the grandstand. But this time Brady
was very cool. He watched the race from end
TO end and then, as Accountant neared the
wire, the dolly turfman took of his pearl
colored derby hat an d made a low bow. indica-
tive OF his deep admiration for the game
horse that bore his red, white and blue jacket.
Maybe Davy Johnson didn't get the money
on Joaquin in the sixth race! And Frank
Farrell. Joe Cassidy. Alderman James Gaffney
and u few others who we're in the knowi jac-
auin had won a fine race on Friday in the mud
from a poor lot, but the form players lid not
believe that he could beat Far West and
