Perfect Starts Feature
Racing at Marlboro
Big CROWD Ont, Including Sports from Baltimore
and elphia-FaporitesS Split Epen.
By GEORGE b. MORRIS.

Marlboro, Nd, Nov 2.-Favorites split
even to-day at the Southern Maryland
Racing Association track, while the out
siders were well played. The crowd was
larger than that of yesterday, many per-
sons having come over from Philadelphia
and Baltimore in a special train.
The track was in excellent condition,
and the fields were not too large so as to
cause tanning. The starts were of high
order. in every event the fields being
sent away in perfect alignment.
The first race of the day, a fve-fur-
long dash for maidens, brought Marsh
land home by a length, while Cashin was
second and Irene Gummell third.
Creole, in the second event, won easily,
beating Blue Crest by two lengths, with
How About You third. Henry Munroe,
who was thought to have a royal chance,
vas never a contender, finishing last.
Grandissimo, with TroXler in the saddle
won the race from Hallack, the second
choice, who was three lengths in front
of Goldwick. Troxler put up a grand
ride on the winner. II is safe to say
that any time Troxler is in the saddle
he is away first. Eight to one was the
price quoted against Shillalah in the
fourth event. He won from Feramorz by
two lengths. who beat Little Erne for
the place by three lengths.
Sabo Blend repeated again to-day and
won with to l quoted against her.
Teddy Bear was second and Kironi
third.
In the last even of the day Quality
Street beat Sir Evelyn by a neck, while
Premier was third.
The books were hit hard to-day, as the
winners were heavily backed.
A good card is offered for tomorrow,
including a steeplechase over the Colum-
bia course. With the best timber-toppers
in the country at this track, and
steeplechase that is second to none,
good contest should result
Many new stables arrived to-day, and
from now on the fields should contain
some of the best horses in training in
this section of the country. Good time

ing and returning from the track. The
