SARATOGA SPRINGS, n. Y. Aug, 27.--
punboyne, the four-year-old son OF
cot, which won the Futurity In 1908,
came back to the races after long
absence and displayed all of the great
speed which made him famous as
two year old. In the first race he beat
half a dozen of the best sprlnters in
training and did II in a way to warrant
the belief that he has few rivals as
sprnter in the country. He carried 122
pounds met with bad racing luck. won
hy half n length in driving finish, and
covered the six furlongs In iii, only
three-fifths of n second behind the
record made by Jyntee in 1918.
A. X. MacComber's Star Master
finished second, nose in front of
samuel Ross's Crank. Lion dor, Lord
Brighton. High Cost and Courtship were
the other contestants and were beaten
Off
Dunboyno came to the races this
Spring heralded as a world beater. He
had worked phenomenal trials apd he
beat hig field including Billy Kelly,
In the Paumonok Handicap In sensa-
tional style. After that race he went
wrong and in. his next start was beaten
off SO bad was the race that he was
thrown out Of training and 1t was not
until he reached here that he received
anything more than breeze.
He moved rapidly and last week sur
pr scd his trainer by travelling six fur
longs through the sand at the Oklahoma
track in better than l :16. Because OF
this trial he was made the favorite for
tC-day's race. When II came to racing
I ,l.g - l.
~ the start. bat Schuttinger would not
let him. Schuttinger got him off well,
but took him of the pace while Lion
d or and High Cost sped along in front
at terrific gait. Down the back
stretch and around the turn Dunboyne
was only galloping and fighting to go
faster. but Schuttlnger's strong arm kept
i'm back.
DunbOyNO the Rest.
Entering the homestretch the jockey
gave him his head and tried to sneak
h.m through on the rail. In half
dozen bounds he made up two lengths
and was at Lion doris heels. Sande,
Who had the mount on Lion dor, saw
him coming on the rail and guided his
mount over in front Of him. Sande's
r,oyc was permissible. for he had the
right OF way. When shut of Schuttin-
ger took back and came to the outside.
To the crowd 1t seemed that this move
would cost him the race, but when
Strengthened out again with clear sail
lng ahead Of Dunboyne came with rush
and won going away.
T. +. Bradley's Best Pal proved that
h. is a real good handicap horse In the
Glen Falls Handicap. He beat a quar-
tet Of handicap horses Including Mad
Halter. In clever style. He set the pace
throughout, and after standing long,
hard drive in the stretch remained there,
passing the judges stand half length
ahead of Bellsolar. Mad Halter followed
Fest Pal for a mile and then quit and
finished badly beaten third.
One of the biggest killings Of the
meeting came in the third race. when
Arnold Rothsten's Sailing B. beat home
4 big field of highly priced Juvenile
platers. With Kelsay In the saddle,
Sailing b. sped away from the barrier
winging and made every post q winning
one. At the end he was only breezing,
two lengths ahead of Rancocas, while
Squaw Man ran third.
Sailing B. was backed heavily. He
opened up at s to l. At bugle call
when the prices officially closed, he
was 9 to 2, but as the barrier went up
smart coterie of racegoers were
taking 2 to l on him
Winner Sold for $4,000.
After the race Emil Herr bid him up
from $500, his entered selling price,
TO $4,000. and got him at that figure.
To get Rancocas there was avid scram-
bic to tho claiming box. Sam Louis
bid the most and got him.
Frederick the Great the platter which
WAS beaten by Turf on wednesday while
an odds-on favor!te, came back in the
sisth race and was again an odds-on
choice. This time no ran TO his best
form and won by, two lengths from
Paddy Dear. After the race the stew
ards called T. ]. Harmon into the stand
and questioned him about the big re-
yOrsal. The trainer explained that in
his previous start he tried to place him
behind the pace, and when he was lot
down. he refused to do his best. The
explanation satisfied a majority Of the
racegoers, but the stewards reserved
their decision. After Frederick the
Great scored Jimmy Murphy boosted
him from $500 to $3,o0o but failed to
get him. Failing to get the winner,
Murphy went to the claiming box and
claimed Paddy Dear.
