distance being three miles. IL was the longest
race OF the season. Benuclers maintained his
washington cup form and the son OF Salvador
went to the post a , to . favOrlte. George
swain had the leg up on the gelding and in
the absence Of Notter and Mcdaniel was the
eOpnOtCh Jockey yesterday. Beauclere had
lO4 pounds in the sRddle. an increase Of 7
pounds on the Washington cup burden. but
the opinion was that with the track In such
good condition the extra weight would not
bother him.
Ironsides was similarly weighted. and as
second choice he met with considerable sup
port among the takers of odds. Old Banker
was asked to carry iO7 pounds, and as ii was
supposed TO be his last appearance carrying

all he knew to send him first under the wire.
When the barrier sprung Banker was the first

that Beauclere was only waiting IN the field.
swain was holding him hard. while the horse
fought for his head. As he strobe around
ahe second time-the finish of the two miles
Swain let him out a little and he easily shot
into first place.
For a short spell Right ROYAL looked like
challenging. but Swain lOOsened the ribbons
and Beauclere drew away a. the crowd
cheered. IL was all over then and the Sal
vator gelding galloped along smoothly TO the
Hnish. winning with the greatest ease by
i've lengths from IrOnsides. Right ROYAL

beaten out Of the show money by Banker.

The steeplechase. which was the second
ITEM on the card, developed into a rafting
race between Kara the even money favOrite,
