Outrun by Victor in Stretch-Marinelli
: Aboard Two Winners

NEW ORLEANS. Deo. campus,
ridden by Thurber. took the Maure-
pas claiming handicap over the
mile and a furlong route, which
served as the feature of Jefferson
Park program. A return OF good
track conditions and well balanced
fields summoned a large sized
crowd, who saw Lampus score al
ter long stretch tussle with Biar-
ney Stone. Pimlico ard WEXFORD,
the only other starters. Wexford
showed the early way but tired at
the stretch entrance and allowed
Lampus to take the lead, which he
held under a hard drive at the end
Blarney Stone had a length and
half to spare over the weakly ria
den Pimlico.
Modesty repeated Ter recent good
effort by taking the third over
smart field of juveniles, and pro-
vided Marinelli with a pair Of
brackets in the close race he is
having with Lang for the leader
ship of the riders. The erratic
Penitent was heavily backed bur
disappointed in the running after
breaking fast from the outside, be-
cause she proved an easy victim for
Modesty in the final sixteenth.
Image saved third Brush Boy was
given a weak ride by Thurber.
Y Bub May saddled his first winner
OF the meeting in Fusee. which
dominated the running of the sec
ond over the others. After the
wagering had progressed for sew
eral minutes the paddock judge de-
clared Bumpety Bumps too lame to
start and she was withdrawn. The
proceeding created considerable
panic but all other speculation was
finally permitted to stand.
= Marjorie NJ. spilled one OF the
hottest things of the meeting when
she sizzled home with five lengths
TO spare in the opener. Damoris
was second and the widely touted
Domingo third. The latter was
backed to the exclusion OF all
'others but got away in a tangle.
