NEW YORK. July 26.-This was the
last Saturday of racing on the Metropoli-
tan tracks for the season, as one week
from today the thoroughbreds will be
in action at the Saratoga track.
Although the weather at times was on
the threatening order, it failed to keep
Belmont Parks attendance down, az
some 10000 persons were on hand when
the horses paraded to the post in the
opening event.
Kalinka won the first race from Stentor
and Warborn. Oakhurst made the pace,
but Nicklaus always had Kalinka well
In hand, and at the home turn he let
her down and she overlook Oakhurst
easily. Stentor challenged her in the
stretch, but she outran and outgamed
him. Warhorn closed strong, catching
Oakhurst in the last sixteenth.
Gallop happened to get away well in
the second race and. leading from the
start to finish, won by a goodly margin.
The interest centered in the race for
the place between Notoriety, Disparity
and Mary Warren. These three had a
battle. Disparity. after a slow be-
ginning, swerved from the outer to the
inner rail and was then beaten only
a nose for the place by Notoriety.
Ocean Blue ran remarkable race in
through half a dozen horses to get to
the front. She got home in time to beat
Sickle by q head Isidora and Perth
shire were the pacemakers, but they
both stopped on the way home.
Donald Macdonald won the Long Is
land handicap after a desperate finish to
stand off Lahore and G. M. Miller. Mac
Donald made the running all the way,
but was always closely pressed by La
hore and Miller, both being within strik-
perfect race on the winner and to him
is due the victory as much as the diff
ference in poundage compared with what
he and Lahore carried in their last race.
Guy Fisher was added and Meridian with
drawn. Fisher finished close up after
turn. but he was outrun from the be-
ginning.
