James Butler Puts Winner
Across in Rich Juvenile
Annapolis Stake.

James Butler added two more races
to his winning list yesterday. making
eight out Of nine starts. He captured
the Annapolis stakes. one OF the richest
juvenile events of the meeting with his
fleet two-year-lod Pebbles, while his
stable mate. High Noon. was secono.
At no time during the running Of the
race was either horse extended. De-
spite the crushing impost Of rs pounds,
Pebbles did not falter an inch and han
died the weight as easily as II ii were
a feather. The Quincy stable candidate
Double Eagle, was distant third. and
the others were strung out Protector,
]. s. Tyree's representative was left at
the post and had no chance.
Gnat, another Butler representative.
made show OF his field In the third
race. and won under wraps. In the first
eighth Of a mile he opened up a gap OF
ten lengths and was under restraint the
balance Of the route. Embroidery was
thought to have the second call, but he
was hopelessly beaten and finished out
side Of the money. Change was second
and Stalwart Helen, third.
The third event brought a lot Of
maiden timber-toppers to the post. The
winner turned up in Blankenburg who
was under restraint until the last eighth
and then let down. He won handily,
Pons Asinorium was second. and Alb
derfeldy third.
Dartworth paying II to 1. beat Elwah
length in the fifth event. With a
better break. Elwah would have won.
He was away bad and had much
ground to make UP.
Wizard Bedwell put over the usual
long shot for the closing event. Cen
tauri paying q to 1 beat Holton a
length for the long end Of the purse
Susan B., as usual. delayed the start
In the first race for fifteen minutes and
was left at tie post. This is the third
time she has been left in as many starts,
and It is most probable that the stew
ards will refuse her entry in the future.
