and upward, which was the feature
race at Belmont Park yesterday after
noon, was won by the Dosoris Stables

Jockey Joe Mooney. 1t proved only q
breeze for this second choice OF a

through the first mile of the mile and
sixteenth test, but which quit when
caught, finished second. length be-
hind the winner. Mile. Cadeau ran a
good race for the third end of the
purse. and. though firing badly through
the final stages. led home Lady En-
incline, the ruck runner, by more than
ten lengths.
George w. Loft is we'll known
candy maker. He should go into the
glue business so far as Donnacona is
concerned. This steed is of presumed
stake class. He has won a few and
run many commendable efforts against
stake horses. But ne is Indispensable.
When one looks for him to run he only
joys. He didn't seem to have his mind
on his race yesterday There was alb
solutely no excuse for him.
Earl Sande had the leg UP and he
got the colt off flying, rather edify-
ing chance for Donnacona, which is
known as bad post horse and which
usually props with the word Sande
LETT the other three as if they were
tethered. He crowded out into the
Lead so fast it made the other starters
dizzy. Rounding the turn. the favor
lite looked like real money from home.
1t appeared only gallop.
Mooney Takes Up Chase
Joe Mooney with Super, the second
cnolce, however, never gave up the
chase. OFF last, the Quincy Stable
jockey was content to take the short
est possible route home, and at the
same time to whittle down his great
disadvantage gradually. Midway round
the bend, after working up to second
place, Mooney set out for the pace
maker.
1t was a stern chase and long one.
But gradually Super cut down the ad-
vantage enjoyed by the favorite and
just outside the eighth pole succeeded
IN getting up to the front runner. Once
Donnacona was collared he quit cold.
Super, coming to the outside of the IA
vorite, simply ran over him through
the last sixteenth to win as he pleased.
Mile. Cadeau. outrun throughout the
entire journey was also firing at the
end
The track was cuppy and uncertain,
and consequently the fact that only
two favorites bobbed down in front oc-
casioned little surprise. There were
fewer scratches than ordinarily, but
the fields originally were small.
The most exciting finish of the af-
ternoon characterized the closing race.
tor mares of all ages at six and half
furlongs, in which R. Penn Smith IRIS

elgn Stables Ten Lee a head on the
post. E. Sietas's Elected I'd, the ia
vorite, could not untrack herself in the
early running, and, though she closed
with great burst of speed and was
running over the others at the end, she
started her sprint altogether too late.
She was a couple of lengths back at
the end.
Great Ride Proves Vain
Clarence Hummer put up million
dollar ride and a five-million-dollar
finish with Ten Lee, but to no avail He
was off winging, breaking right behind
Arrow of Gold, and racing this one into
apparent submission inside a quarter
mile. At the erd of two furlongs Ten
Lee was four lengths to the good and
apparently going away with ridiculous
ease.
Ponce, with Arrow of Gold, was bid
ing his time. He made no move till
half way round the bend Then he
charged down on Ten Lee 1t was
long and wearisome run for the chal-
lenger. But Just when Ten Lee seemed
to nave the race sewed up she reached
the limit of her endurance inside the
furlong pole and folded like an accor-
dion.
Hummer tried with whip and spur to
save his firing mount, but Arrow Of
Gold was not to be denied In the very
last strides, under q wonderfully clever
ride by Ponce, Arrow Of Gold got I'D to
win by scant nose. Elected Cd, which
ran third all the way, finished in that
slot.
Jock Sect, the favorite, won the fifth
race, at mile. Sande got the old fell
low OFT flying, forced all the pace, and
won in romp. J. s. Cosden's Lady
Baltimore romped home with the thirl
race, at five furlongs straight, after
racing Dolores and Emotion, the ia
vorlte, into submission Lady Balti-
more drew out in the last furlong and
won with plenty to spare. The steeple-
chase was only an exercise gallop for
Woods Garth's Franc Tireur, the f.
vorite
Laverne Fator, with Alta Girl, the
second choice, took the first race, at
five and half furlongs, by grace of a
great ride through the stretch. He
came with a rush at the end and won,
gong away. Lucky Girl, which broke
last and forced the early pace, quit
badly IN the stretch. The favorite,
Avlspa, was very weakly handled by
