HILDRETH COLTS
IN THE CLASSICS
ARE WINNERS
BY ED GURLEY

| Saratoga, August 13.-(Special.) -Sam
Hildreth, the quiet, unassuming owner, is
still the leader on the American turf. The
colors of this wonderful trainer were
carried to victory in the two classics of
the afternoon. Novelty captured the Sar-
atoga special sweepstakes, worth 1880.
and piece of gold plate valued at $1,000.
Dalmatian followed this feat by galloping
home to a marvellous victory in the Trav-
erse stakes, which was worth $4S25. The
double victory netted Hildreth $1,000 in
total This places Hldreth further in the
lead as the most successful trainer of
| the season.
| In addition to winning today Novelty
kicked the dust in the faces of Naushon
and Iron Mask, which beat him in the
Union Hotel stakes a few days ago. The
race must be credited to the superb horse
manship of Schiling.
The defeat of Naushon was a terrible
blow to the crowd. They considered the
Wilson colt sure thing. When the lay
ers opened Naushon at 6 to 8, they were
| huddled almost like football players.
| Every man IN the ring was wild to bet
on Naushon, forcing the price to to 10.
Everything else in the race was neglected
