Hours to Win. the 2.23
Event
THIS THE BIG DAY
AT DRIVING PARK

The third day of the summer meet
ing Of the Delaware Horse Show As
ISOLATION showed large entries in the
three races. 1t was the big day of
the meeting, and weather conditions
were ideal. The events are a free
for-all, 226 pace and 2.2O trot.
Sixteen heats were contested yes
terday in three races, the 2.23 trot
going to nine heats before a winner
was found. II came dangerously
close TO being a cruelty-to-animals
case. the four heat-winners having
been kept at it for about six hours.
The time for the sixteen heats was
phenomenal, considering the calibre
of horses starting over a half-mile
ring. The fastest heat was in 2.15 IL
and the slowest 2.24, giving a grand
average of 2.20.09
The program of the day showed "a
entries for the 2.23 trot, 81 in the 2.2O
pace. and in the 2.14 trot. Eleven
horses came out for the 2.23 class, and
the same number for the 220 class,
while FIVE started in the fast class.
The 2.2S trot proved a horse-killer,
Julia Baron by Oakland Baron, won
the first two heats, cutting her prev
ious record of 225 IA to 2.23 IA Don
Pizarro Sd won the third heat in
220 IA, cutting his record of 221 IA
made at Bridgeton last week, Amo,
by Auster, took the fourth heat In
2.23 IA, a second slower than his
mark. The fifth heat went to Edge
Hill Pirate, by Flexo, in 223 fat a
reduction of IA seconds from his
previous mark. The Pirate captured
the sixth heat in 2.22 IL, the fastest
of the race, knocking another half
second from his mark. The seventh
heat went to Don Pizarro in 2.23 IA
Amo finished second, but was set back
for fouling on the upper turn. Amc
came back in the eighth heat and was
never collared, winning out by four
lengths from Edge Hill Pirate in
1928 IA.
The ninth and final heat was started
after z o'clock, the quartette of heat
winners coming out tired and defect
ed Amo set the clip. keeping the
lead to within a yard of the wire
when Edge Hill Pirate won out by a
nose in 2.24
Eight of the eleven side-wheelers
starting in the 2.20 pace wore the
straps. but went around the turns like
a cooper around a barrel. The win
