Mrs. Wilfrid Viau's Audacious was
a mighty powerful horse in the Carter
Handicap at the Aqueduct racetrack
yesterday afternoon. He won the
famous stake from half a dozen OF the
best sprinters in training in gallop
and eaualled the seven furlong track
record of 1928.
At no time during the race was ne
In danger of defeat. He allowed Gil
ford A. Cochran's Smoke Screen to set
the pace for six furlongs. There Clar-
ence Hummer gave the big son OF star
Shoot his head and the race was as
good as over. Audacious sprang for
ward and in half dozen bounds was
in front. Then he merely ambled
home to take down the major portion
Of the $4,000 purse by four lengths.
Lawrence waterbury's Sennings Park
finished second, five lengths ahead OF
Mrs. Payne whitney's Idle Dell. Smoke
Screen quit to q walk in the final
furlong and finished fourth.
Audacious carried 125 pounds. The
record he equalled was that made by
Naturalist two years ago carrying 133
pounds. Audacious won the Carter last
year.
The big disappointment of the race
was Arnold Rothstein's Gladiator. This
giant speed marvel showed nothing. He
broke badly, ran badly and finished
badly.
The Astoria Stakes went to Dick
Browns Ally My Reverie. This daugh-
ter. of Ultimus and Reflex ran like a
miss of some class. She showed fine
flash of speed and was running strongly
and smoothly at the end. 1t looked as
IL she might have been able to have
gone another furlong and won. Harry
r. siDclair's Rose Brigade took the sec
ond end of the purse and the Ascot Sta
ble's Lucky Button was third.
MY Heverie a Smart TflIy.
NV Reveries victory was a surprise
to almost all the local racegoers, but not
to her owner or trainer. She Was named
In memory Of Mr.. Browns son who was
killed I'm the war; and when she started
at New Orleans showed such good form
that Mr.. Brown and d. r. Mcdaniel.

better things on the metropolitan turf.
McDaniels gave her a long rest and
when be returned her to training she
showed plenty of speed and high signs
of courage.
Both owner and trainer made no se-
cret OF how well the filly had trained
and that they believed she would win,
but few considered her to have a chance
against such fiilies as Rose Brigade,
-
Bells. AS a result she was at the long
odds OF IL to /.
Penitent, a daughter of Pennant and
Regret. finished fourth. She was on her
bad behavior while on her way to the
post, at the post and during the race.
She broke sluggishly from the outside
after trying to kick the life out of her
opponents. and swerved all over the
track in the run to the JUICES. My
Reverie ran down the five furlong chute
in 0:5S2-5
Knobbie. the three-year-old colt BY
wrack and Gold which Harry Sinclair
bought from Jim Fitzsimmons for
$25,000 fortnight ago again showed
that he was a bargain In the fifth race
when he ran a mile eased M In / :37.
He didn't beat much. but his victory
was an impressive one nevertheless.
Carrying 124 pounds. he went to the
front as soon as the barrier went up
and. breezing along In front all the way,
won by two lengths and half. Copper
Demon chased him all the way and fin
ished second. r. T. Wilson's Sedgefield
was third. Charles A. Stoneham's Billy
Barton. which won the Cuban Derby,
showed nothing despite fast trials and
finished last.
