showed startling reversal Of form.
Monday he could not get up a respect
able gallop, but yesterday he tip-toed
his field all the way and lasted long
enuogh to win from Brennus, which he
beat a head, with Revolt Tapped on the
winner.
The latter was ridden all over the
track by w. Davis, and the finish ne
put up was one of the worst seen on
this track. Throw out her race for
future calculations. Woodthorpe showed
q good turn of speed, but quit at the
paddock gate when put to a drive.
Buttons, the to favorite in the
second race, was in soft spot. Nc
Daniel allowed Retropaw to make the
pace for half then came on and won
easily. He did not run out at the
home stretch, as he usually does, for
Mcdaniel eased him up slightly, which
seemed to be a good remedy.
Yellow Kid, a 60 to / shot, outgamed
Capable In a drive for the place money.
Capable had no excuses. Retropaw quit
early.
Lord Provost, quoted at 10 to in
the betting, made all the pace in the
third race and in a driving finish he
just did last long enough to beat out
Piquet, which finished like a shot on
the outside after being outrun early.
Cocksure, away flying, faltered badly
in the stretch, but hung on long enough
to save show money. He pulled UP a
little lame. Mazapan was chased to
pieces trying to catch Lord Provost.
Mary Glenn had no excuses and ran
her race.
The fourth race, the feature event on
the card, went to Won Tromp, which
receded from 6 to II to 5 in the betting.
Don Domo was played from to to
3 to 2 and ]. @. Glen closed at 16 to 5,
played from to l. Platoon was always
to 1. The latter made the pace, with
Ven Tromp at his heels, until the half
mile pole, where Mcdaniel sent the
Mckinney horse on and he won easily
in 1:H6-good time considering the
track, which was heavy.
Don Domo never could get to the lead
er and was ridden out to save place
money from Platoon. ]. c. Clem
seemed to sulk and would not extend
himself
The Carman entry, Inspector Bird and
that good colt, Salover, coupled in the
betting at s to 1, got first money in
the colt race. Salover stood a gooL
drive and Moriarity just managed to
get him in first. Ed Davis, outrun
early, closed like cyclone and would
have won in a few more jumps.
Reno Rebel, the to 1 favorite, after
setting a fast pace, tired badly the
final sixteenth. Balnade ran a good
race, as she was practically left at the
post taken around her field, then just
did fail to get up. Tab this one for her
next out in any kind of company.
Swagerlator showed early speed, but
stopped in the heavy going next to the
rail.
Susie Christian was backed into fav-
oritism from 8 to 2 to 1 in the sixth
race. Kinsman was second choice at
16 to and Elizabeth F was played to
Az to after 6 to / could be had at one
time. Elizabeth opened gap of five
lengths going down the back stretch,
with Susie Christian second and Kins-
man trailing.
Turning into the stretch Susie got
within a length of the leader, when
Elizabeth pulled away again and looked
to be winning easily. Kinsman, how
ever, closed fast and won going away.
Susie Christian lasted long enough to
show. Irish Mail showed early speed,
as did Bauble, but they quit after going
half.

Today's Selections
Selling platers will have a chance to
earn their oats this afternoon, as four
of the events will be for the poorer
class of this division. The 6ther two
races are purse affairs. The fourth
event will be the feature, when four
good 3-year-olds will face the starter
at equal weights.
ba 10 II OoI
form, will win, as he has only ]. r.
Laughrey to beat. The latter should
have little trouble to take Arimo
Arimo has evidently had too much of il
lately and seems to have trained off
Llvius has an outside chance to be in
the money.
The first race, for 3-year-olds. should
go to Taos. This one ran a good race
when he was disqualified his last time
out and should beat the ordinary lot
he meets today. Big Store looks next
best and should easily be second. Kam-
sack, Teddy Mack and Joan of Arc may
fight it out for show money.
If Orelio gets away well in the second
race he will be a hard horse to beat
as he is working great guns in his
morning trials. Irish Mail should about
be second, with an outside chance to
beat the top one. Royal Ascot and
Bankara should finish close together
Tor third money.
Foncasta looks to be in a soft spot
IN the third race and has only Rama TO
beat, which he should do easily, as the
soft track Is TO his liking. Avontellus
should be third. He runs his best races
In the mud. Lucrece and Prince Fred
erick have good chance to finish
among the first three.
A very poor lot will face the barrier
in the fifth race and If form counts for
anything they may finish in this order:
Lacene. Little Gregg, Melar. Santado
and Agnes Mack have a chance TO be
IN the money.
The sixth race is very open affair,
as four OF those entered figure so close
~ that 1t is hard to separate them.
Phil Igoe Is in grand form now and
looks to be the one the winner will have
10 beat Belchamber will go some with
81 pounds on his back and should give
the top one a stiff argument all the way.
