 The big race the one that the fans had been looking forward to with the

While all was still Baker and Caldwell made a false start and the clerk of the course set them back a yard. The crowd hisSed this, for 1 they wanted to see a fair race on even terms, so the runners were allowed to come back to scratch once more. Baker Beats the Pistol.
