NANCY F. RUNS LIKE
A HIGH GLASS FILLY
Takes ROsedale Stakes Impress
sively-Horses and Jockey
Fall i'm Stretch.
BY HENRY W. KING.

Frank Farrell started a flly named
Nancy F. in the Rosedals Stakes at the
Jamaica track yesterday afternoon that
can really run. She sped away from
five highly tried juvenile misses and
made them look cheap. She broke like
veteran. rushed into big early lead
and then galloped the remainder of the
way to win the major portion OF the
$1,000 purse easily by five lengths. AL
though she was not pressed at any stage
of the journey, she covered the five fur
longs In the good time of 100 20, the
same figures as those Prudery made In
this stake last season.
George d. Widener's Galeta finished
an easy second At the judges she was
two lengths ahead OF Harry sinclalrs
Fanfare. Harry Payne Whitney's Yam
kee Maid was fourth. Buxom. an added
starter fifth. while Belle Body brought
UP the rear.
Galeta is n miss OF stake quality. and
when tho distances are stretched out she
is likely to give the best of her age ana
sex q tussle for honors. She "a slow to
get into her stride, but when She does
she displays n great flight OF speed. sne
left the barrier all mixed up yesterday
and didn't settle down to racing until
Nancy +. was almost dozen lengths IN
front Of her. Then she sprang forward
and made up lot Of ground, but she
was not good enough to threaten
Nancy #.
Louis Feustel saddled two winners
for Samuel Riddle. He scored with Oc-
casion in the second and Dream OF the
Valley In the fifth.
Easy for Dream of the Valley.
Dream OF the Valley ran a smashing
race With Clarence Hummer In the
saddle he broke on his toes, and before
q sixteenth Of a mile had been covered
was stepping along in front haf dozen
lengths ahead Of Walter Congdon's Car
narvon, which was leading the remain
der OF the field Then Hummer took
snug hold on him and allowed him 10
step along as he wished, and without
much effort he won by six lengths. Car
narvon was second and Tippity Witchet
third. Dream OF the Valley ran the six
furlongs in :12 25.
Little Eddie Hummer had the mount
on Occasion. This mite of lad rode as
well as his veteran brother. SO well
did he ride that practically all OF the
horsemen said he-Wa5 a sure thing as a
good future jockey. He weighs less
than eighty pounds. but he's a strong
lad and isn't afraid of any kind OF
horse. Sandy McNaughton taught him
how to ride by having a heavy headed
horse run off with him every morning.
Before going to the post Feustel told
his Occasion was as good as Man o war
and that she'd win II he gave her a
good ride.
Eddie got Occasion away from the
barrier well, but when she reached the
farssAurn she was knocked back and
lost several lengths. But this didnt
discourage the lad. He continued TO
ride her hard. In the stretch he saw an
opening next the rail and shot his
mount through it and then drove her
homo like Lotus. Feustel put Oc-
casion In the race to lose 1t by the
claiming route, and he did. She was
claimed for $1,000.
Column n Fast Colt.
The last race brought about the most
thrilling finish OF the day. At the
Judges Column, Bud Fisher and Budana
could have been covered with the pro-
verbal blanket. Column carried Nor
ton Schwartz's colors and was the first
winner Joe Notter has sent to the post
this season. The young trainer had the
colt fit as fiddle. Column stood a
lhng. hard drive gamely. He ran five
furlongs In 100 2-5. He Is handsome
looking colt by Celt and Pyramid. and
can run. Time and again he had beaten
0:47 easily in a half-mile trial
Celtic Lass beat big field of platers
in the opening event, with Florsain
second and Louise Wynne third.
Lads Love won the third In this
race Lola, while leading the field 4
furlong from home, stepped in a hole
and broke her leg. She went down and
threw Weiner headlong through the air.
Gloomy Gus stumbled over PROSTATE
Lola and also went down, throwing
Fator heavily. For several minutes the
Jockeys lay unconscious, but DR.. Dowd.
the track physician, quickly revived
them. Weiner was cut and bruised
about the left hip and left shoulder. He
probably Will be out of the saddle for a
couple OF weeks. Fator hurt his left
shoulder painfully but not seriously. He
will be able to ride In day or two.
Lola was destroyed.
While astride Ravanna In the second
race Jockey Campbell was Knocked
against the fence. His left leg was cut
and llgament torn In his ankle.
