COULTER'S PLANS FAIL
WINS ONLY TWO RACES.
Beduclere Beaten When Three
Straight Looked Reasonably Sure.

T W Coulter laid HIS plans win three races az
Brighton Beach yesterday with He Knows. Trash
and Beauclere. which he claimed out OF q selling
race on Saturday after J. V. Lenaaire had bid up
racing was emphasized. however. as. after He
Knows and Trash had their respective races,
Beauclere. which looked like the surest one OF the
three. failed in the last event. and spoiled field
day for Mr.. Coulter and his friends.
He Knows was starter IN the first race. for nom
winners this year He q fair sort OF two
year-old last season. but up yesterday had failed
to show anything this year to Indicate he had
chance to beat Saracinesce and Whip Top. to say
nothing of several OF the others. He had been
rested up however. since his last race. June 5.
and had been working so well recently that the
memory brokers were wary. and did not quote bet
ter than to /. When it came to racing he Jumped
out In front. and Sweet had 10 do little more than
sit still to win by much he pleased IN the
fast time OF 1:13 for the six furlOngs. From his
manner OF winning He Knows Will be hard horse
to beat from now on tn much better company.
Trash carried the coIors Of Mr. Coulter in tho
second race, and won after a stormy journey
Sweet. who had the mount made enough mistakes
to bring about the fllys defeat but she was good
enough to overcome the handicap OF being shut
OF sharply twice and Of having 70 make up four
or five length rounding the turn II Gowan had
not suffered quite badly Trash there might
have been another story to tell She went to her
knees in the the first turn after being up in
the air at the start and did not find clear sailing
until Strengthened out for home
When It came to the last there gem
eral rush to get quotation on Beauclere. ths
majority Of those present had him marked the
'one best bet OF the day. Mr.. Coulter was conf
dent that the colt would make # three straight for
him. but the of Salvador did not run up to ex-
pectations. and had TO be content with third
money. He slow 20 begin. usual. but
Molesey behind him and last rounding the far
turn. and yet the Kingston geIdins even with Jen-
.en a stable boy I'D. squeezed through a narrow
opening at the head Of the stretch and came away
TO win driving by three lengths from O5ert. which
beat BeaucIere half length. The last named was
in good position at the head OF the stretch. and
no excuse could be offered for his failure TO come
on Sam and Cad Doggett rooted Molesey home in
the most approved style, to the amusement Of those
about them.
Cairngorrn ran a wofuIIy bad race in the handi-
cap at a mile and sixteenth. He could not keep
up at any part Of the journey, and was finally
beaten six or eight lengths. Marathon. the quoted
favorite. followed the pace set by Queen Marsuer.
