THREE FAVORITES
WON AT PlMLICO

BALTIMORE, April 2G.-The feature of
the racing the Pimlico track yesterday
was the action of the stewards in
pending the certificate of Mr.. Robert NJ
Taylor. Maryland's gentleman rider, as an
outgrowth of his ride the favorite, Tar
pom, in the steeplechase for maiden hunt
ers. By the ruling Mr.. Taylor must
main on the ground until the case is re-
viewed by the National Steeplechase and
Hunt Association, which recently restored
Mr.. Taylor's standing a gentleman rider.
1t very humiliating turn OF affairs
to Mr.. Taylor. and it is the first time that
he has been in such a predicament. Mr..
Taylor had the mount on his own horse,
Tarpon, that was heavily played by the
bettors to win the race, and he went to
the post backed down to to =.
The defeat of Tarpon was attributed to
Mr. Tayior's ride, though it was evident
that it was his poor judgment that al
lowed Guardian, the equal second choice
in the betting to win. Mr.. Taylor held
Tarpon is restraint during a greater part
of the race, particularly on the last time
around, when it looked like Tarpon would
| race over the top of the leader, Guardian.
When they got over the last jump Mr.,
| Taylor let Tarpon have his head. The
horse made a game effort to catch Guar
| dian. but it was too late. as Tarpon had
! left all Of his speed on the intield and he
|
with Mr.. Charles X. Harrison another
| local rider, and that looked to be firing,
| also fooled the spectators, as Guardian raj
lied in the drive down the stretch ana
| won handily from Tarpon
The Country Club of Pmlico stake proved
| only a canter for the favorite. Ell Dorado
| with Lloyd up. 1t was one-horse race
1 as the other starters had no class
Dairy Maid was the real good thing of
the day in the fifth race-that for maidens
at seven furlongs. The tip was strongly
played, and made good, with little Goldstein
| in the saddle. Grafton, the favorite. ran
into the place, while st. Jeanne. owned
by Mr. Stewart Diffenderffer, at 20 to l
| in the betting. finished third.
| to even money. won the last race from AL
! lonby by four lengths: J. T.. Madden put
| a good one over in the initial race in De
Burgo. that opened in the D~ttiEg at 10
| and went to Z 20 l.

| victory of the meeting in the second race, at
