Damask Takes Doughorersp.
Penman's third of his trio of vic
norles was with Damask in the
DToIushoregan Handicap for 3-year-
TurIoSR apd upward mile and a
Damask was sent to the barrier
oy the talent well played. Captain
Alcock, The Archer and BeIIsolar,
however. were all figured to lead
the Whitney colt home. But as 1t
happened, none of these even fin
ished in the money.
Gnome bore the purple silks of the
Salubria Stable to the front in the
early going, racing stride for stride
with Blazes. Damask. however,
slipped through to the rail at the
three-quarters and when Blazes
tried to take the lead raced the
son Of wrack into submission
Gnome had pulled away from the
rail at the three-quarters and raced
to the outside. Had he held on al
the inside he probably would have
come down leading the procession
Keogh, however. brought Gnome
up handily at the head OF the
stretch and his mount came gamely
fat the end, dropping into the place
hole a neck in front of the fast
tiring Blazes-

The old gold and green oolors OF

in front in this exclusive race when

tbat YOU could take your swell gals

Irinner out of that mob would be to
toss a three sided coin. Maybe the
wise Men did. At any rate they
hung Raiah's, Tubby AS and The
Enduirer's numbers up in that or
der And thus it was. No use
Snashing your teeth. You got paid
off that way or not at all. Judging
by the price on Rajah. S12.10 for a
sbe-biIl. the majority of the faithful
got paid not at all.

Perkiomen didn't have a chance.
J. L. NewboId's Bribed Voter. a
coniparative outsider. got the deci-
sion in the third race. Bribed Voter
raced to the front at the first turn,
TOOK the rail, and was never headed.
Scorch Verdict and Sunny Hill were
among those who took the Voters

mediocre company.

night favorite, failed to ring the
hell. She throwed snake eyes at the
