SARATOGA RACE TRACK, Aug. 2S.-
Whiskaway, twice conqueror Of Nor
vich, and the colt which Harry Payne
Whitney recently sold to c. w. Clark
OF Montana for $125, 900, was decisive-
ly beaten here this afternoon. He was
an added starter in the Huron Handi-
cap at one mile and three sixteenths.
and finished fourth. seven lengths
behind Montfort Jones's Rockminister,
which led the field from start to finish
and won breezing by six lengths.
Frank Farrells Horologe was second
and Frank Browns Hephaistos third.
The race was good one from time
standpoint, Rockminister covering the
distance in ] :57 3-5, the second fastest
ever made in the stake. Whiskaway car
ried 1S2 pounds and gave all of his
opponents big Jumps OF weight. While
whiskaway's race was nothing like
those in which he beat Norwich, 1t
wasn't bad. 1t was his first start In
known that the colt was not working
well, either, for Jimmy Rowe or George
Barnes, who now is training him for
Mr.. Clark. He is sluggish fellow who
hates work and to make him do his
best 1t is necessary to use the whip on
him freely.
In preparation for this race he had
done fairly well. but his trainer was
not confident he would win and ex-
pected he wasn't going to run to his top

with the result that his price receded
from even money to to 2.

Special a Grcat Magnet.

Although the race was not arranged
until last Saturday. hundreds of sports
men are already pouring into this city to
see the race. which, in the opinion Of all
sportsmen. horsemen and everyday race
goers, will be proven a greater magnet
than the Derby. AL. horsemen. whether
from the East or the West. agree that
the event will definitely decide the three
year-old championship.
In preparation for the race all OF the
candidates have been working excep-
tionaily well. The only laggard has been
Whiskaway. and to-day's race is sure TO
make him improve twenty pounds. Bunt-

The association is doing all in its
power to make It the greatest equine
contest of this generation. So that lovers
