MADAME HERMANN IS
{ FIRST in SEVENTH
Shows Great Reversal of Form and
Beats Classy Field Feature
to Eagle.

Havre de Grace. Md, Sept. 1s.-If
ever a horse showed a reversal of form
on a Maryland track, Madame Her
mann was the offender today in the
seventh race at the Hartford County
track when she was practically left
at the post and won going away from
a field that had repeatedly beaten
her under exactly the same conditions
She was a real live horse today, and
was pounds the best. In her two
previous starts. she was uoted at
hundred to one and twenty to one, re-
spectively. and was beaten on twen-
ty-fve lengths A ton Of money was
bet all over the county on her, and
so great was the play on her that
II forced her price down to to l.
Money came back to the track in a
thousand dollars at a clip. Much un-
favorable comment was heard about
ttis race, and no doubt exists that
the stewards will delve into the mat
ter thoroughly.
The feature number on the card. the
fourth race. a handicap at mile and
a sixteenth, brought the pest field OF
horses to the post. Sangallon was
heavily played. while MalachIte and
Eagle were well Supported. Sangallon
cut out the pace for the entire jour
ney, while Eagle and Malachite were
within striking distance. As the field
ctrcled around home for the long
stretch drive, LOuden made his move
With the Herr gelding and under
hustIing ride got up in time to win
from Sangallon by head.
It was no contest for Water Belle,
in the second race, when she ran her
held dizzy and won as her rider pleas
ed from Beau of Memo ana Alberta
Trues. Beau OF Menlo paid 25 to
place.
About the poorest field of horses
sent to the post at this meeting con-
tested the next race. Fairweather was
the favOrite, but Keziah. the second
choice, was too good and won rather
handily.
In the fifth number Rosewater was
played as though she was home, but
Johnny McTaggart took good care Of
her and she was never a contender. Nc
TaEEart put up a listless ride, and
no doubt exists that she can do much
better. and the race does not go.
Menlo Park spilled the beans in the
sixth race when he beat Daingerheld
IN a handy manner.
All in all. it was a very unsatisfac-
tory day for the talent, as favorites
were bowIed over with a regularity
that made the form players vince.
