MURPHY RUNS FAST
IN SELLING STAKE
He Beats Three-Year-Old
Platers in Feature at
Aqueduct Track.
FLYING FAIRLY WINS

The Union Selling race. a dash Of seven
eishths Of q mile. was the feature OF
the indifferent card offered by the Queens
County Jockey Club at Aaueduct yester-
day. The winner was Murphy. a brand
new aspirant for distinction In the three
year-old division. His victory was liher-
ally spplauded. because he had been in
dustriously tipped before the start and
was heavily played. The selling condi-
tom OF the race caused the Withdrawal
Of Libyan Sands and Miss Puzzle, which
are high class three-year-olds belonging
10 August Belmon, and James Butler re-
spectively.
The most formidable Of the nine colts
and fllies which lined up against Muir
ply were Feminist, Broomvsle. u God,
Bonnie Tess and llluminator. The last
named eliminated himself before the
start by running away for two miles and
a half. and nom of the other proved
fast enough to give Murphy arsu-
ment. He led from the stat -eorinc
easily. Feminist finished second and
BroomNale third. Murphy ~ a son of
MCGEE and Intrigue, and Is owned by
Max Hirsch. Last season he was East
enough. but he had a habit Of quitting
after running ave and a half OF six iur-
longs. He seems 10 have acquired
stamina over winter. and IL Is possible
that he may make a useful route travel
Ter this year.
