Coquctte, running in the colors OF
the Brookside Stable aud trained b.
George 0dom, won the Clover Stakes,
. legacy from the Brooklyn JocI-sy
Club, at Aqueduct, yesterday, after A
long, bitter drive. FIRST with Sea shelly
and then with Pixy, which tested her]
courage and found il strong.
She had a pull Of fourteen poundsl
in the weights over Sea Shell, which
beat Comely and The Masaueradsr
among others last week. and Catalina,
which counted in her favor, but for all
that she commanded the admiration OF
the good-sized crowd or hand for her
gameness.
r.. 7. Wilson's Pixy, too, which won
at the first asking last Friday, proved
that she was possessed Of much quail
ity by hanging on up 10 the very clos
ing strides. Joe MeCshey, who had
the mount, insisted that she would
have won except for interference on
the part Of Buxton, who rode the
winner. The silent one" was so e1-
ercised that he went before the stew
ards aud lodged q claim Of foul, cor
tending that Buxton used the whip
more freely on his arm and shoulder
than he did on his own mount.
The stewards listened patiently and
also heard what evidence the patrol
judge had 10 offer, but then denied thu
claim, and rightly, so far as could be
judged from the stand.
Sea Shell is almost too small TO
handle weight readily and was stop
