Follie Levy belonging to A. 4. Reilly,
won the Tarrytown Selling Stakes. the
feature of the card at the Empire City

light impost OF 96 pounds he displayed
the speed that made him the king Of the
juvenile selling platers last year. He
sped to the front as coon as the barrier
was released and never left the result in
doubt. He led throughout and all
through the stretch little Jockey Wessler,

merits trying to catch him

was two lengths in front OF A. Meals
Kate Bright, which took place honors a
length and a half ahead of Lieut.. Clifford
A. Cochran'e Nepperhan.
Elmendorf. belonging to the Quincy
Stable. was the favorite for the race but
no was never serious contender. With
Jockey Lyke in the saddle instead OF
George Walls he failed TO show any OF
his great speed and had n hard Job to
finish fourth. The track was heavy and
holding and this might have tended to
dull Elmendorfs speed, but his owner
declared after the race that he wasn't
sure It was the condition of the track
that made him run such bad race.
"Perha "a he isn't is good as think he
is" he said. Il thought he was real
good colt. Now he will have to prove 1t
to me-"
