Won by Barrin ezton
On the Speedway

j. A. L. Darlington won two blne
ribbons yesterday in the first light har-
ness racing matinee of the midsummer
meeting on the Harlem Speedway. He
held the reins on Kenwood, grav
gcldlng, in the 1:15 class trot. and Lit
Tie Kate, a bay mare. in the 1:1O class
brush
In the first race Darlington had little
difficulty in plotting Kenwood to vic
tory, as Idolita, bay stallion driven
by George Gall and making his second
start this year, ran in very poor form.
In the first trial Kenwood, who. by the
way, ran her initial race, trotted across
the finish line more than ten yards in
front of Idolita in 1920. Kenwood won
the second heat in similar fashion,
going one second faster.
With Little Kate, Darlington again
had little trouble in beating Guniire.
