New-York tribune., 1919-05-28

Inc talent vlndicated the faith of
the public in four of the six events;
the two outsiders, which came from
nowhere to sensational victories at
long prices, carried enough sentiment
to make their successes appreciated.
Anyhow, they showed real thorough
bred class, and those whose hopes they
ruined had to admit they won on merit.
One of these outsiders was J. Byers's
flve-year-old mare Columbine which
won the feature race, the Bayside
Handicap, in sensational style by grace
of clever ride on the part of Carroll
Columbine had to be much the best to
WIN as the race was run. On an in
side position, the chestnut mare
was scarcely ready for the break,
and was shut off in the big field short
ly after the start. Carroll, after get
ting free, found himself away back in
the ruck. But from the first turn he
elected the shortest journey, saved
ground on all the turns and at the
last sixteenth took big chance TO
skim through on the rail just in time
to get up and nail Wyoming by
scant head
Wyoming, another outsider, ran
fine race under Ensor. He raced Es-
quimau, the early pacemaker, into
submission in five furlongs, but weak
ened in the final sixteenth. Jusqu' au
Bout, favorite for this event, had little
chance from the break. The colt suf-
fered a lot of early interference, and
when Andy Collins tried to get through
on the rail around the turn he was
penned in by whole squadron, and
bumped against the fence so heavily
his right leg was severely bruised.
Collins had to be assisted to the
jockey room Once clear in the stretch,
Jusqu' au Bout came with a great rush.
but had no chance then to retrieve
the ground lost while in tight quarters.
Mrs. G. w. Atkinson's fve-year-old
mare Alma B., which won the mile
and a sixteenth fifth from Favour. the
things Of the season The mare was
played, too; backed from 80 to to
20 to /. Stapleton showed real horse
manship in handling the mount. He
laid off the early pace of Favour, but
always kept will within striking dis
tance He made his run in the last
furlough and won going away.
The performance of Dan, the second
choice of this event, was suspicious, to I
say the least. Dan was either sent to
the races in absolutely no condition or
Corey didn't try lick with him. Dams
ability to finish is proverbial. He f
showed nothing in the stretch. He +
was close enough hitting the long home 7
run to run right over such a field as
opposed him. 1t is such performances (
as that of Dan which give racing {
black eye 1t behoove the stewards to
burnish the lenses of their binoculars. (
The ancient and honorable Willie /
Knapp uncovered a smart -year~old !
colt in Harry Payne Whitney's Upset,
which won the closing dash Of four
and half furlongs. This untried T
Whisk Broom got hooked up with W.
R. Goes Service Star at the half and
fought her stride for stride to the
finish, outlasting and outgaming the
Coe filly at the end. 1t was anybody's
race till twenty-five yards from the
wire, where Service Star hung mo-
then came on again too late.
With LOTUS on his back Old Rose
bud was a good thing at / to 5. He
had to fall down or break down to lose
and was only galloping at the end
Crystal Ford, a 80 to / shot, was
pounds the best of the others She
came from away back and was running
over the rest at the end
