fields provided good racing for large
attendance at the Fair Grounds to-day.
Several close finishes and the bright
performance OF the consistent Olambala
flly Day Lilly were features. Day Lilly
took the Mermaid purse after she had
been heavily backed into the favoritism
which she justified by breaking slowly
on the extreme outside and winning
easily from Lucy Kate. Doric and six
others
Bantry, a stablemate Of the consistent
st. Isidor, carried the J. E. Nash colors
to the easiest score of the day. after he
had been steadily backed so that his
victory cost the bookmakers heavily.
The last minute change from Mccoy to
Pool proved strategic for the Kentuck-
ians In the sixth, when Will o. the Wisp
dominated the early running and held
on long enough TO win from Romper. the
heavily backed Charlotte c. and nine
others.
During the running OF the last race,
which went TO Capital City. Jockey Nc
Dernott was thrown from Susan NJ. but
although picked up in an unconscious
condition, was later reported unhurt.
