TO yield the palm 10 the hunters and Jumpers. Out
of the eleven classes judged yesterday at the open
ing Of the horse show held in conjunction with
the Queens-Nassau Fair classes brought out
horses under saddle. The classes were all large
and proved unusually interesting from the fact
that most OF the entries blue ribbon winners.
In the third class of the dav thirty-six hunters
occupied the ring for hour and it seemed
a pity that there only blue ribbon. for
there were several clever performances by the tim
Der toppers.
Seldom in the history of the show has the at
tendance been as large for the opening day, and
after the big grandstand and the boxes were
filled the enthusiastic spectators sought points OF
vantage along the rail- Among those noticed in
the boxes and on the lawn were Mr. and Mrs. Clar
ence Mackay. Mr.. and Mrs. ]. z. Davis, Mr.. and
Mrs. z. D. Morgan Mr. and Mrs. A. Butler Dun

Berkeley Bobs. which Alfred B. Maclay pur-
chased last winter and has shown only once since,
the opening class of the day for ponies in har-
ness. Berkeley Bobs is to the manner born, and
never misbehaves himself He has perfect man
ners, splendid gait and conformation, and has
beaten nearly everything of his size both here and
abroad. Harvey Ladews Mighty Atom carried of
the red ribbon in this class.
August Belmont won a blue rosette with his
chestnut gelding Saracen in the heavyweight sad
die class and captured a second prize in Glass Al
for hunters, green or qualified. Saracen jumped
we'll but he had to yield first honors to John S.
Phippss brown geldng Baronet. Harvey Ladew
rode his brown mare Artists Model to victory in
the saddle class where thoroughbreds barred.
Mrs. Belle Beach Balm was the stunning biz
chestnut gelding Marksman. owned by Miss NJ. S.
Whitney, and she kept him well before the judges,
winning second prize. Jester Miss Dorothy Hen
derson's bay gelding was not able to get better
than third place, although he is credited with
string of blues in the shows in the sunny
South. A. Lincoln Stadlers Ace High showed UNI
usually well and was twice called out for inspec-
ton. but he failed to get in the ribbons.
In the tandem class Clarence H. Mackay's Irish
Lass and Land O. Burns proved invincible and de-
feated Baron Brown and Hector, from the North
and Queen Nab.
lido F1eischmann's beautiful little chestnut mare
Mayo a we'll deserved blue I'm the open saddle
class She was in the clever hands of Percy Drury,
and they came in the ring with the evident inten-
ton OF carrying away the chief award. They sue
ceeded well that Mrs. J. Gerow butchers Maple
Sugar forced into second place, and Paul D.
Cravaths Gloribird had to be content with a yell
low while such aspirants Sarno, Reliance and
Peter Pan went ribbonless.
