CALL FOR HONORS
IN HANDICAP
DIR. Smoot Gives Winner of
Feature Lively Chase
at Finish.

DR.. Smoot gave Lomond a bad scare in
the handicap Tuesday when he cut in
on the rail and started for the finish
with two lengths of bright sky between
his tail and the fayorite's nose. But
Lomond had the best OF a terrific
stretch drive during which Smooth
pulled away, was overtaken and barely
passed by Lomond with Nolan giving
him an awful licking. DR.. Smoot set
the pace to the stretch turn where Lo-
mond moved up and gave the doctor
chase to the end. Allen. put up on DR..
Smoot more because of lack of weight
than riding ability, could not shake
him up enough to beat Lomond in the
closing strides
Nettie Marchmont gave the admirers
of Frank Mullens a surprise when she
romped in ahead of this horse in the
fifth race for twOyearolds. Mullens was
not as much responsible for the win
ming as his jockey. D. Louder, who al
lowed the Wood entry to have his own
head and run all over the track Ed
mond Adams also suffered from too
much apprentice and was never given
a chance to show what he could do in
this race. Juarez made a winning for
the patriotic across the river who played
the name rather than the horse. JuareZ
won in the first race in a field of
youngsters by coming on strong when
the others were firing and finishing
with ground TO spare. Cat was second
after a ragged get away and some fast
running to- make it up.
Kopek Comes Back.
Kopek came back in the third, win
ming from Joe Woods in the six furlong
<rr ~ hafrdr a.
pek moved up on the far turn and was
in the lead all the way down the finish
stretch Joe Woods had the other beat
all the way and moved UP to cnal-
lenge at the right time but could not get
his move over Bob Lynch was another
surprise party in the third race. He
ran over the rest and finished ahead of
Colinet which was ridden to no purpose
by Allen. the same boy that messed UP
DR.. Shoots race
The final race was the one mile
standby, always popular and good
field of distance racers paraded TO the
post for this event. Light Wool won,
run a seasoned campaigner's race, hang
ing back until the winning time came
and then going up to beat out the rest
His winning was lucky one for Hima-
lava was crowding him and Barney Old
field had opened the speed clutch
moment too late and was coming on
like a runaway at the finish.
