Easy Victory
Of Naturalist
Stllns Talent
Widener Gelding Provides
Own Feature at s'Cet-
away; 80 to Shot Wins
By w. 7. Macbetb

.. 4. Wldener's Naturalist picked up
l40 pounds and romped home throuqh
six furlongs of mud to an easy victory
in the California at the Jamaica track
yesterday afternoon. This was not the
advertised feature of the "getawav"
of the first spring meeting Of the
Metropolitan Jockey Club. But Mr.
Widener's fve-year- old brown geldinp
made it the feature by the ease with
which he won for Fairbrother and the
bearing the achievement is likely to
have on the running of the Metropoli-
tan Handicap, the star attraction of
this afternoons opening at Belmont
Park.
The Highland Stakes of $4,000. for
three-year- olds, at six furlongs. which
was supposed to have been the feature
furnished one of the biggest upsets of
the meeting. The Beach Stables Pas
toral Swain shook the hayseeds out of
his name and simply knocked the bows
dead by running over his field through
the stretch. The odds against Pastoral
Swain were as good as 80 to i.
1t was Naturalsts victory in the
California that made all the boys sit
up and scratch their whitening locks
in dire dismay Naturalist, thrown in
to the field he had to lick despite his
heavy impost, would have been the
natural choice had it not been for "in-
side" stable information.
1t seems there was nothing this geld
ing could do right before he went to
the post. He was behaving badly. He
was high in flesh. He was short in
his work. He had the heaves, bucked
shlns, was sore on his forefeet, etc.
These bear stories were swallowed.
hook, line and snker. The price grad
ually scared till some of the faithful
who remembered what Naturalist had
done under weight over kindred
courses naturally got aboard, as all
good men will do on occasion.
Loftus's Ride Futile
1t was evident before the field had
gotten fairly under way that Natural
ist was right at home in the going and
would win as far as he pleased. A
very heavy play had been made on G..
D. Widener's imported Abadane, but
he had all he could do to keep within
hailing distance despite the best eff
forts of Johnny LOTUS. 1t was Just
a procession all the way, Blairgowrie
beating a common lot for the show.
Scoots was the big tip for the High
land Selling Stakes. Pastoral Swain
always had been such a bad actor at
the post that few gave him a tumble
Scoots and Roi Craig divided favor
and they went right out from the start
New-York tribune., 1919-05-22

and raced themselves to death. At
least Scoots raced herself to death,
for she stopped short at the sixteenth.
Rol Craig hung on fairly we'll to the
end.
But Pastoral Swain, off better than
usual, moved UP fast after turning for
home and simply raced away from the
tiring leaders. Ceramic, a so to /
shot, also closed with a great rush
through the stretch and cinched the
show money easily.
st. Quentin was jammed against the
fence before the first turn. Little
Richcreek's left leg was so badly
bruised he was forced to pull up. He
had to be lifted out of the saddle and
carried to the jockey room. He will
be laid up for ten days or fortnight.

Burnett Wins Toss
For Low Net Prize

Despite heavy fog in the early
hours that made it impossible for one
to see more than 100 yards from the
first tee, enthusiasts belonging to the
Eastern Trade Golf Association at
least partly lived up to their announced
programme at the Montclair Golf Club
yesterday. The tournament, however,
was confined to the afternoon, one
eighteen -hole round suhicing, singles
and foursomes going on at the same
time. In the main handicap there was
tie for the low net between w. H.
Burnett and Durno Chambers, with re-
spective cards of 92-16-76 and
96--20-76. Burnett won on the toss.

fastidious tastes Of the New York
crowd, the racing at Belmont Park
should assure more picturesque sport
than prevailed at Jamaica The open

llshed American turf lore from year to

fer, Jack Atkin, King James. Fashion

The Finn, Ornlesdale and Trompe La
Morte, associated in successive win
nlAgs, stamp this particular feature as
prize of rare value.
There have been greater fields, no

CROUCH tried performers have accepted
the issue, in spite of distressing wealth
er conditions, to make the thirteenth
renewal of the Metropolitan Handicap
an event well worth a journey out to
Belmont Park to-day, irrespective of
the weather.
Eleven to Face Starter
No less than eleven have been named
for the big feature. Unfortunately not
one of the most redoubtabe three
year. olds-such ones as Sir Barton.
Billy Kelly, Eternal. Dunboyne or the
others that figured gloriously or nglori-
ously in the Kentucky Derby and
Preakness this sprng-has been named
for this classic. Undoubtedly the as
surance of heavy going made it seem
wise to hold off until the Withers Of
Saturday to settle old scores. How
ever, in stake of this worth, monetary
and sentimental. there is always hope
of one or more being added at the very
last monnt.
The face of the Metropolitan Handi-
cap was saved, indeed, yesterday by
the nominations at the very last min
ute of J. E. Widener's, Naturalist and
the Beach Stables Flags. Naturalist,
which has been asked to carry TOP
weight at 124 pounds. should, because
of his excellent performance in the
SIX furlong California at Jamaica
Yesterday, be conceded the best chance
for victory.
This sprint proved only a good ex-
ercise for him, and expert opinion be-
lleves he can give Flags, last years
sprint champion, more than>five pounds
asked over a heavy track at mile.
1918 Winner Entered
J. Z. Widener will have two STRINGS
for his bow. His Trompe La Morte,
which won the Metropolitan a year
ego in the very fast time of 1888 2-5,
is out to revise precedent. No
thorough bred has twice won the
Metropolitan. But then Trompe La
Morte upset tradition in last years
victory. He was the first three-year
old to score success in a Metropoli-
tan.
Mr.. Keene's Sysonby was three
year-old in 1905, but Sysonby only held
Race King to dead heat that year.
Other such good ones as Papp, Rout-
ledge, Lanis, Sweep On, Hollister. Star
Master. Lucullite, Foreground and
Corn Tassel are almost sure to face
the starter
Second only in Importance to the
Metropolitan will be the New York
Steeplechase, at about two miles. Local
turf enthusiasts are partial to cross
country races, and they have yet to
ENJOY their first treat from the timber
toppers. There is no steeplechase
course at Jamaica. Eight jumpers have
been named for to-day's inaugural of
steeplechasing hereabouts, FIVE of
which had pretty thorough schooling
this spring in Maryland
BESIDE the Metropolitan there will
be another distance race, one for
three-year-olds and up at a mile. There
will be two sprints for the Juveniles
over the four and a half furlongs
straight course and a five and a half
furlongs dash for three -year-olds and
upward.
