In some ways il was an even more
impressive performance than IN her
first start, and the big crowd cheered
and shouted as she raced through the
stretch, seeming to appreciate tnat
they were seeing a worthy rival 10
Comely. if not one of the greatest filiies
ever bred or developed in this country.
Her smooth, frictionless action was
pleasing to see and none but good
horse. one might say a great horse,
could win as she did over the slow track
without being fully extended in the last
furlong.
The fractional times for the race
were as follows: O:12, 0:23, 0:34 2-6
O:47 Is, 1:01 2-5, 1913 2-5. A week
ago she ran the distance with 10
pounds up in I'LL 3-5, but the extra
weight and condition of the track easily
accounted for the difference.
Solly Runs a Game Race.
Solly. which is suffering from sore
knees, ran back to his race of few
days ago when he established new
track record for five and a half fur
longs. He hung to the pace closely and
finished with rare courage. An appli-

Just before the race deadened the pain.
Garbage, Captain Cassatt's Futurity
candidate and winner Of the United
States Hotel Stakes, could not keep
within striking distance of the lead
ers, and ran a disappointing race.
1t was one of those days which make
for the joy of living The sun blazed
down with August fervor, but heecy
clouds carried enough breeze to temper
the heat and lend an invigorating touch.
J Under the conditions, then, it was not
surprising that the Saratoga Racing
\ Association entertained the biggest
| gathering Of the meeting.
Marcellinus, Mrs. Payne WhitEey's
costly jumper, ran no race at all in
| the Saratoga Steeplechase Handicap,
/ pulling up last in sore distress after
making the pace under gentle restraint
for mile and a half. He fenced
smoothly and clearly, but could not
carry his weight over the distance.
| The gelding was imported from Eng
land this year, where he ranked with
/ the best and cost Sl7,500.
When Marcellinus dropped out of IL
/ Allen tried to steal away with Little
/ Hugh, but Lysander and Syosset soon
ran him down and fought out the issue
| through the last half mile. Lysander
/ proved the better OF the two and right
at the end won easily.
Tighe, who had the mount on Ly-
| sander, rode a clever and confident
race. He rated his mount of the pace
/ for two turns of the field and was not
| hurried into making his run when Lit
| tie Hugh opened up a gap Of six or
| eight lengths. +. Ambrose Clark had
reason to feel that his horse can now
be ranked at the top among the jump
| ers of the year.
II. p. Whitney also had the satisfac-
/ ton of seeing his three-year-old Pan
/ dean win the Champlain Handicap, tho
best race on the fiat for three-year-
olds and over. But the Peter Pan
| Nudge gelding had to turn an awful
form somersault to win. He had
| been beaten a matter of one hundred
yards at one mile by pretty much the
same sort of horses as recently as last
! Wednesday.
Perhaps the circumstances that he
wore no binders to-day had something
to do with his improvement Pandean
wore the rogues' badge in his earlier
race.
A prettier race than the Champlain
| furnished had not been seen all year.
The starters were Ten Point, under a
burden of 100 pounds; Flying AIRY,
under lis; Surprising, us; Pa4Aean,
SO; Coy Lad, at 81; Andes, 95, and
Early Rose, 100, the last named hav-
ing been added at the last minute.
Buxton in Too Big a Hurry.
Flying Fairy was favorite, with Ten
Point, Surprising and Early Rose In
demand. Breaking in front Of the
stand in perfect order, the seven
horses raced around the first turn In
compact bunch. Ten Point detached
himself from the group as they en-
tered the backstretch and set out for
the upper turn, with Flying Fairy and
Surprising running Tapped couple Of
lengths away.
Surprising probably would have won
if Buxton had been content to wait on
Ten Point to the last quarter. But Bux-
ton gas in a desperate hurry. He shot
Dick Carman's heavily weighted three
year-old up half a mile fom the finish,
and Surprising, passing Ten Point in
the upper turn, entered the home
stretch length or moro to the good.
He had, however, shot his bolt. When
Flying Fairy and Pandean challenged
in the last furlong, the former on the
outside and the latter next to the rail,
the Montasanta colt had nothing in re.
