George Starr, W. *. Harriton's brown
gelding by Jack Atkin-Africa took down
the purse on the Pershing handicap at
Churchill Downs yesterday afternoon
Twin came from far back to nip Top
Coat for the place. The winner took
the lead at the rise of the barrier and
held sway all the way. For the time
during the present meeting the talent
went astray in the opening number and
they suffered extensively as a result of
Bon Tromps failure to land a part of
the purse. His recent races entitled him
to place of favcritism among those he
met this afternoon. He lacked speed and
was always far back. The early running
was dominated by Port Light and Apple
Jack II. When the former gave it up,
Apple Jack ii drew cut to win decisivcly.
Ruby showed he.' heels to a good hand
that started in the second race, and led
from the start to ultimately win as her
rider pleased Her recent good trials
brought big band of converts 70 her
stand, but Blue Jears, which finished sec
ond, also absorbed considerable atten-
ton.
The Harry Payne Whitney colors were
carried to victory IN the third race, when
Wendy managed to outstay the supposed
good thing Valley Park Maid, after
a hard drive, Accelerate landing in third
place. Some good youngsters went in the
race, with Valley Park Maid favored
most and supported by the smart set"
Marse John earned the decision in the
fourth race, in which some highly rated
platers met and in which Skies Knob
ruled favorite and showed a bad effort,
being outrun from the start and never
figuring seriously at any time.
