PEERLESS CLARK PEDALS TO
VICTORY in TARTAR STAKES

both tired at various points Clark
came back at the twentieth mile and
got better on every lap. Two laps
from home combinations were. exf-
dent. Hill went to the front with
Hehir on his wheel and Spears fol-
, lowing Hehir. Immediately behind
Hehir followed Joe F'ogler, with
Clark in tow. The leading train
was wen under way at the bell and
We're sprinting at top speed at the
head of the back stretch.
Clark appeared to be holding his
effort too long, but at the eighth pole
he moved up alongside of Fogler and
set sail for the finish line. The
Rocket dashed up to Spears and the
lanhY one jumped to meet his sprint,
but THE Rocket" was the rocket of
old. and Spears could not even hang
on 10 his rear wheel. Clark gained
with every kick and when he crossed
the tape he was at least half-d dozen
| lengths In advance of his fellow
countiryman. Fogler finished third
with Ryan fourth and Percy Lay
renee and George Cameron traiied the
Brooklyn rider in. BY the disqualif-
/ cation of Ryan fourth place went to
Lawrence, and Cameron was adj
vanced TO fifth money.
The final of the -thirds-mile
| handicap. professional, caused a Juror
in the stands when Spears raced away
| from Kramer in the last twelfth of
mile. and 1t was q more spectacular
race than the long race. Spears un-
corlSed a startling sprint when he APP
pealied to be hopelessly beaten and no
| rider ever rode around Kramer In a.
similar manner in O short distance
event before. The race was virtually
scratch event, as Kramer. the only
! scratch man to quality for the final,
rounded the field in the first lap and
slowed them down to a loaf for two
laps. A lap and half from the finish
Grenda went around the field with
Kramer following and at the eighth
the champion jumped and went to the
front. Kramer looked like sure VIM
| ner, as he was several lengths In
| front at the twelfth, but Spears came
| with a rush from fourth position and
| quickly overhauled the 'Peefles5
One"
Kramer looked up in surprise as
| Spears came up alongside, and made
an effort to hold him off, but the
| Australian was travelling two lengths
| to the title-holders one, and was an
easy winner by several lengths.
| Kramer had a hard heat, while
Spears made the final without having
TO extend himself, and the former laid
| his defeat to being tired when the
race started. However, he did not
offer this as an excuse for his defeat.
,, Lloyd Thomas took third money from
the 45-yard mark and Jake Magins
with a maEk of sixty-five yards, was
| fourth. 'fss
Amateur Champion Donald Me-
Dougall was defeated by Harry
Kaiser. of New York, in the one-mile
| repechage handicap, but the title
holder won the three-mile open after
a hard fight with Kaiser and Gus
Wohlrg.b the outlaw" champion. The
final of the handicap did not result
in the race that was expected, as the
| rideys on the handicap marks refused
to go, and McDougall and the back
| markers caught the limit riders on
the third lap.
Kaiser jumped a lap and a half
from the finish when McDougall was
! pretty well in the rear of the field
/ and took commanding lead at the
| bell. The champion put up a great
ride and was fast overtaking the New
| Yorker who tired and slowed as he
neared the finish. Aubrey Taylor, the
! Australian champion, was third and
| Thomas Flanagan was fourth. Me-
Dougall finished three lengths behind
Kaiser and led Taylor by six lengths.
In the open Kaiser attempted to re-
peat his performance in the handicap
| and again jumped. but McDougal1
anticipated such a move and started
a long sprint after Gus Wohlrab, who
had the advantage of two-lap pub
from Adam Byerman. Wohlrab put
up great fight and the champion
was pressed hard to win. Coming out
4 of the turn on the bacl1stretch Nc
| Dougall got up even with the Jersey
| City rider and the latter ran him half
way up the bank. The switch almost
threw McDougall and Kaiser, who
was following, went down as a resuls
of Wohlrab's rough ride. Referee
| Ross suspended Wohlrab indefinitely
and disqualified him after he finished
