NEW ORLEANS. March 7.-Notasulga.
the good-looking two-year-old flly by the
COmmoner, that cost A. Hamel 5000 re-
Gently, earned some of her purchase price
yesterday. by winning the National Stakes,
worth $1.3s5. at the City Park track. She
got a poor start in the race and was COM
PEELED to run around the field.
Behind Notasulga at the finish, beaten
out of all prize money. was E. NJ. Fry,
tie best colt of his age in the south. Weight
as We'll as pace brought about his defeat.
He carried 123 pounds and gave away big
Jumps of weight to each of the others. This
proved to be too severe a task. After he
had followed Black Mary. the early pace
maker. to the stretch he tired badly and
finished fourth
Notasulga's race was an excellent one.
1t stamped her as one Of the kind of FL
lies that will improve with racing. She
was not in her stride when the start was
made. This caused her to lose ground In
the first furlong, and it was not until round
ing the bend for home that she began to
play an important part in the struggle.
AT the head of the stretch she caught
Black Mary. After hard sprint under
a strong hand ride from Garner she went
to the front and won by two lengths.
