.puddin' Mcdaniel was source OF
1oy and profit to his admirers at the
Benning course yesterday. He rode three
winners ,he Shaughraun, Orfano and
The Friar. and one second horse in his
five mounts AS all the winners were
at liberal odds, McDanels friends went
home loaded with bookmakers' money.
The Shaughraun. a nce-looking young
ster by Observation-Disclosures a half
brother to the Futrrity winner. Ballyhoo
Boy. won the second race easily. HIS
success was the start on the road to
wealth by the followers Of Mcdaniel.
AS high as to 5 was offered against
The ShauShraun, but as eX-Jockey Vic
Britton. who owns the cot, was free with
his advice to back him. the odds dropped
to Z to 10 Then followed a tip on Ma
yuma. and the money that poured into
the layers hands on the latter did much
to send The Shaughrauns odds back to
even money.
For a brief period the favorite's back
ers were greatly disturbed. for Mazuml
had much more speed than The Shaush-
raun and led him merry clip until the
last furlong. Mcdaniel was hard at work
on the sluggish son of Nasturtium to
force him TO the leader. but all of his
Efforts seemed of no avail until the end
OF the old betting ring was reached
"Blood Will Tell"
That blood will tell was verified by
The Shaughraun. BY sheer courage he
wore Mazuma down and caught him.
Once in front The Shau2hraun ran away
from his chief opponent. and passing the
winning post was nearly two lengths In

The victory Of Orfano in the fourth
race showed in a remarkable manner
how much ground nay be lost and gained
by ride and close turn. Orfano, the 4
to farorite. owes his success entirely
to the guiding hand and the quick per
ception of Mcdaniel. When the home
stretch was reached Lrfano was in sew
