most interesting, but in addition to

Moore Big Winner.
| w. Fl. Moore. up to recess this eve

heavy harness classes, against three
blues for Paul A. Sorg and two for
Clarence Nv Watson. This Is the great
est lead that Judge Moore or any other
show exhibitor has ever had in four
days of showing Alfred G. Wander
bilt up to that time had not won blue,
which. as far as New York is con-
! cerned Is quite as remarkable The
lexplanation seems to be that Mr.. Van
derbilt has been letting others snap
up the blue ribbon nags while he has
been making road coaching his favor
lite sport.
Coker's Rosador, the famous British
high. stepping champion in single har-
ness. that Walter Wlnans sent over for
tho show. has been coughing. and evil

condition. All New York horsemen
have been eager to see this great hack
ney In action. That Coker's Rosador
has had to be scratched on his engage

them as no doubt 1t has been to Mr..
Winans but as horses round to quickly,

shown In single harness to a four
wheeled vehicle. Four were selected
for the Anal judgment-Lady Seator,
Lady Dilham, Flourish and Vanity
Fair. In the rounds OF the ring on the
final inspection Vanity Fair did not
make single skip and was at all
times showing to the best advantage.
Flourish did not show WELL Lady Dill
ham was unsteady at first. but after
wards In full possession Of her impres'
stve style and high action. Lady Sea-
ton made but one little skip, and while
lacking the pace of Lady Dilham, looks
a picture Of grace.
It was regarded as close call be-
tween them, but her superior GOOD
looks and substance back OF the shout
ders probably was the deciding factor
to make the judges repeat last years
decision of Lady Seaton first and Lady
Dilham, reserved. Mr.. Moore. who
drove Lady Seaton. has now two Wins
scored, making his total equal to Lady
Dnham's. Jack Donnelly drove the
latter In mastery style. It Is a three
win trophy.
