go to the front any time Sande turned
him loose. But the jockey had waiting
orders and he held him in check until
well into the home stretch. There he ict
him down and he quickly oveThauled
Sennings Park and went to the front.
But he only got half a length ahead of
Sennings Park when he began to falter.
Keogh on Sennings Park saw him
shorten his stride and waver bit and
he went to work on his charge with re-
newed vigor. His great ride had the de-
sired effect. While tiring, Mad Halter
began to bear out and as he did Keogh
kept banging away at his mount and
got him up to win in the last jump.
The defeat angered Sande and when
he returned to the scales and saw his
number in second place he performed
one OF Buddy Ensors tricks by throw
ing his whip and tack on the ground
with a bang.
The stewards did not like his actions
and he viii be reprimanded for it and
warned that a repetition will cause his
suspension.
A Real stceplechase.
Despite Morvich's great race and the
sensational finish in the Champlain, the
most talk tonight Is about the steeple-
chase. 1t was a beautiful picture from
start to finish. Eight of the best cross
country horses In training made up the
field, and the weights were so nicely ad-
justed that every one of the contestants
was considered to have a good chance
of success. Sweepment was made the
favorite despite his heavy weight. but
all of the others had friends.
All of the jockeys were alert and rode
the best race OF their careers. There
was only one mishap. That came when
Ralph PARIS Royal Arch stumbled at
the obstacle in front of the club house
and threw Crawford over his head.
Crawford had a narrow escape from
being stepped on. His mount was fourth
in position at the time. and when the
jockey went down he landed In the path
of several of the contestants. But he
rolled out of harms way and escaped
with bruised ankle.
Sweepnient Calloped along In front all
the way. Half a mile from home JOY
full challenged and reached his heels but
Mrs. Lofts horse went on again and a
sixteenth of mile from home looked
like an easy winner. but Soumangha
which had been rated along in the rear
during the early stages came with
rush and would have won in another
stride
Sweepment was tring at the end but
Mrgfer was taking things too easy
with him when Soumangha made his
sensational squirt
George ID. Widener's colors flashed
home in front In the opening event when
Carpenter ran away from q big field
or juveniles. He led all the way and
won galloping.
Huonec found the track to his liking
and showed big Improvement in the
fifth race.
Incog won the last race, with Tom
McTaggert second, a neck back. Tom
McTaggart was probably the best horse
In the race, but Coltiletti interfered with
him on the back stretch and cost him
several lengths. In the final furlong he
made determined bid for stellar
hono.s, but Incog had little speed in
reserve and under hundred clashes
from the whip managed TO remain in
command to tho end.
