SOFT TRACK; SMALL FIELDS

muddy track caused small helds at
Empire City yesterday. and also pro-
vided an opportunity for +. J. Pons's
Lahore to make amends for many dis
appointing races this season.
There was no stake event on the card
and Lahore was entered in one OF the
two handicaps. which were Of most in
terest to the racegoers. With Working
Lad scratched Lahore was the top
weight. hut in spite OF the fact that
Troxler had the mount no confidence
was displayed In tho Pons entry. Pro-
gressivs opened fsvorite. but a vigorous
play on the Western candidate Strong
sent him To the post to choice, with
Progressive next In demand and Lahore
quoted at TO I.
For once Lahore ran kindly and Trox-
lcr getting away well, rated him along
In front. with Progressive following
closely. Strong was bumped at the first
turn and crowded back, and when Nick
laus made an attempt TO get up with
the Leaders In the run down the back
stretch he was pinchcd OFF Lahore
turned into the home-stretch with
length lead on Progressive. but Any Port
which had begun slowly, was coming up
like wild horse and TroAler had to
drive Lahore out TO tho end to win by
a length.
There were only three starters In the
other handicap. which was confined to
threc-y ear-clda. Punch Bowl was
scratched and after carl had opened
favorite othclo was finally selected az
the choice Nandergrift. "A horse that
has been running In much better COM
pauy, was practically neglected. but ar
ter Othello had utilized Ills early speed
and obtained lead Of five lengths In
the first quarter, McCabc sent Wander
GRIT In pursuit. Vandcrgrift nailed
Othcllo on the turn for home and the
race was over. the SChorr entry gallop-
ing home Carl came along in the last
sixteenth and beat Othclo out for the
place

class IN the first race. for tuo-year-olds.
she was a to 10 favorte. but as In her
previous races was barrier shy and was
lcrt at THE start. Mamie X. was out in
front and held good lead to the stretch.
whore I>cdcris got up with Militant and
won gSiug away by three lengths. Vo-
luspa was third and there was severe
criticism for Buxton. who persisted in
whipping Princess Ormonde all tho way
through the stretch. although his mount
was hopcleSsly beaten
Gallon was the faVorite for the second
race. but after mdlsng the pace to the
stretch Noylon brought up King Box
and after 4 short tussle left Gallon be-
hind to win easily by two lengths. There
werc only three starters IN the fifth race
for two Near-Olds, and after Type had
opened fdvorite the talent finally selected
