days card at The Meadows was made
up of the cheapest selling platers in
training here. short priced contenders
captured the lions share of the spoils.

well backed and several coups were
engineered successfully. Maid of
Gotham, Herman Doyle and Aftermath
were trio so well fancied by their
stable connections that the ring was
hard hit when they made good
A. d. Walstrom was forced to stand
$500 runup to retain Jim Simpson
after that horse, showing much better
form than was expected of him, won
the fifth despite the handicap of carry
ing Jockey DonVietZ.
The days proceedings were eniyened
by public outburst oversthe action
of the judges in awarding the opening
race to Maid of Gotham. which figured
in nose finish with Buckthorn, the
favorite. Many labored under the i'm
preston that Buckthorn had won, and
there were demonstrations and counter
demonstrations when the other young
ster's number was displayed The ex-
citement finally abated without serious
consequences.
