In its last start, Tufter, with Babin
up, barely got up to beat such platter
as Wynnewood by neck. Yesterday,
the seven-ycar-old gelding picked up
eight pounds and beat Nose Dive by
more than . length aad half. That's
Just about the difference between Babin,
a willing but inexperienced jockey, and
Ssnde, the master. The time for the
mile and seventy yards was l:46 2-5,
and the winners share Of the purse was
$4,000
A field of 1--WE went to tho post, with
Il. e. Wilson jr.'s Duncecap, the favorite,
at 2 to /. There was plenty of to
against Tufter's chances, and strong
late play for Costigan, while Nose Dive
and Care Free were allowed to run more
or less for the we'll known and justly
famous Mr.. Sweeney.
Care Free had early speed and was
showing the way at the half-mile post,
but tired in the next quarter. Nose Dive
was in second position, with Tufter rat
ing along behind under strong pull.
Passing the quarter post Care Free
called 1t day and Sande let out few
wraps, moving Tufter along after Nose
Dive. Jockey Bell on Duncecap acted as
Il hs was on sightseeing bus. He took
his mount to the outer rail at the start
and stayed there, covering fully fifteen
lengths more than was required OF him.
II there Is spot of ground near the
outer rail that he did not cover it is
quits possible that he will go over 1t
the next time out
Tufter Leads at Mile Mark
Sande shot Tufter into the lead st
the one-mile mark and easily held off.
Nose Dives last rush. The latter, how
ever, was hard put to beat Costigan by
o head for third money. The track was
Blow.
The Winsome Handicap for FLIES
and mares, at about six furlongs, was
the next problem for the spectators.
Mrs. Louise Viau's chestnut filly Ten
Lee carried 1875 pounds and Sande to q
we'll deserved victory, beating the
lightweighted Mary Patricia by a nose,
with Dolores third. Polythia and
Bees Wax did not figure.
Ten-Lec set the pace from start to
finish, and, although she tired badly
under the heavy impost, Sande made
up this disadvantage with great ride
over the entire route and closed with
burst of speed that could not have been
denied had they gone on another fifty
yards.
Lady Inez captured the opener, a
selling affair for two-year-olds at about
six furlongs. McAtee pulled a nice
finish, coming from behind to beat
Peter Brown, which showed signs of
class in the early running, only to stop
when he seemed sure winner. Peter
was length and a half behind the
winner when they flashed past the
judges, and Homestretch, the outsider,
barely beat Rork for third place. Sande
rode O'Corra in this race, his only
losing appearance Of the day.
r. j. Horner made the form player
weep in the second event when he put
over his four-year-old gelding Guelph,
beating a field of eleven cheap ones
that went the mile route. McAtee rode
this l2-to-1 shot, which beat High
Speed, the second choice, by something
like four lengths. Venizelos was ham
niered down to even money, but was
lucky to finish, so listless was the ride
O. Jockey Martz.
Surprise In Stamina Purse Race
The Stamina Purse for four-year- olds
and upward at mile and a quarter
brought out field of six pIaters in
which Lord Herbert and Thornhedge
were the even choices at to 2. The
winner turned up rather unexpectedly
IN r. A. divers Huonic. which got the
verdict despite the fact that E. Kun.
n'er was on deck. Lord Herbert was
second, five lengths back and six
lengths, ahead Of Thornhedge.
The last event, the Eastwood Purse
Tor two-year-old maiden colts and
geldings, was very appropriately won
ny Good Night, from the whitney
stable, but 1t was Sande who did it. II
ever a horse was lifted across the
n~nish ~ line Good Night was. 1t was q
hhish that would have made Charlie
