Old-Fashoned Killing

1HaC nun0erclap would surely have
won in a stride or two more.
Old-Fashioned Killing
real old-fashioned killing was eff
fected in the second race, at a mile and
sixteenth, when Woods Stockton's Dr.
Rae galloped down in front with grea
burst of speed through the last furlong.
Goaler, the favoritc, ran very dull
raceto put it most generouslv. Nc
Atee was either pinched back or took
back shortly after the start till he was
nowhere. He came with a great rusn
when it was too late and made up
words of ground in the stretch run to
finish third. Meanwhile, howeve~
Frederick the Great, which broke il
front and raced Orderly and Kohl
Moor to a standstill through the first
half, continued to draw away through
the stretch. AT the end of mile, Or
at the sixteenth pole, he seemed to
have the race Won He was two lengths
in trout of pi. Rae
Then Frederick began to falter Just
a bit as Rowan went to the whip Swat
sat still on DR.. Rae. which steadily
drew up till he nailed the tired pace
maker fifty yards from home. He then
drew off to victory by fully length and
half. How we'll DR.. Rae was fancie
by those who had speaking acGuant-
ance with him is attested by the fact
that he was backed from Is to / to
6 to /.
The Babylon Handicap. as intimate
above, was just gallop for the reliable
Neddam. Kelsey soon raced this good
two year-old to the front and held the
competition safe all the way. Rice, with
Padraic, very foolishly tried to match
strides with the favorite The res ut
was that Padraic, which could not make
Neddam extend himself, raced himself
out in hopeless chase. He had little
left with which to battle Krewer when
the latter challenged through the final
furlong.
Krewer, by the way. ran very
much improved race over several pre-
vious starts. By laying off the early
pace Carroll had something like 4
He had little difficulty in taking the
place as result, for Krewer bore out
as most tired horses do, right at the
end.
But it remained for the calamity of
calamities to close out the day. Harry
Payne Whitney's Damask was regarded
as just so much money in the bank
and played accordingly. They soon had

Of it. Hitting the stretch, the colt was
dozen lengths behind the etders, but
picked his way so nimbly through {
scattered field that he was racing oven
all of them at the end.
The Wagner and Carnarvon had the
race between them all the way. Car
narvon bumped Service Star badly il
the stretch and Knocked himself out
of his stride. This cost him the ctory
as he was overhauling the Wagon
er at the end and would have won in
another stride. For the foul Carrar-
Won was very properly disqualified
which gave second money to DamasA
and third money to Service Star
The Wagner was the medium ot
quite as rich killing as that made OF

Whitney's colt was pounds the best o
