was the outsider, quoted AT s TO l John z.
Madden stiu had confidence in Fayette. and did
not hesitate 70 tell his friends so. Q L Harrison
had high hopes for Alfred Noble. while H K
Knapp felt that Fashion Plate had q chance
TO win. As it turned out, not one Of the horses
named had 2 chance to even live with Fitz Her
bert, which bore ont the expressed opinion Of
Sam Hildreth that the son of Ethelbert was the
horse he had ever owned.
When the start came. far across the infeld
in the chute on the backstretch Fitz Herbert
broke in front, but quickly outrun by Alfred
Noble and Restigouche, both Of which seemed
determined to go to the front and force the pace
This appeared 70 be poor judgment on the part
Of Mccarthy on Alfred Noble, as the four year
old son OF Garry Hermann had proved in
recent races that he is a strong stretch runner,
after having had a chance to settle into his
stride Be that II may. the two horses fought
it out head and head through the first mile
when Restigouche began to hang under his
impost Of 121 pounds and Guy Burns started to
ride him 20 hold his position.
At this point Z. Dugan. who had been laying
off the pace with Fftz Herbert. and well clear

beaten. No sooner did he give Fitz Herbert
his head than the good three year old rushed

he pleased.
Alfred Noble hung on better than Restgcuche
and staggered home second. some six lengths
before Fayette which had been 50 badly outrun
in the first half mile that his chances were
hopeless Kings Daughter and Restgouche
struggled IN behind Fayette. and then came
Fashion Plate, which had been pulled up shortly
after the start by Glass. who explained later TO
Mr. Knapp that he thought the colt had broken
down.
So ended the Suburban Handicap Of 1909 And
50 ended the hopes Of al least four owners who
had been looking forward for weeks to winning
+be fixture which brings such high honor TO the
fortunate horse. So began. the same time,
the rise Of another turf idol. FOR, barring acci-
a.,+e F-itz Herbert is likely 10 take a forward
