PASSE PARTOUT AT
90 TO 1 Is SPEEDY
Surprises Owner by Winning
Sprint Handicap-Ned-
dam at His Best.

Special Dispatch TO THE NEW YORK HERALD
NEW ORLEANS, La, Feb 22.-Though
Passe Partout told his owner lie by
refusing to run TO his private trials on
his last outing he took advantage of
George Washington's Birthday to re-
deem himself by galloping home an
easy winner Of the Olympic, a six fur
long handicap.
Passe tartout was heavily backed
last out and finished among the trailers.
To-day his owner risked a ten dollar
bill on his winning chance at so TO l
ana was surprised to see the son of Jack
Atkin- -Matterhorn run like a stake horse.
He followed Brilliant Rays early pace
and went into the lead when the latter,
weakened rounding the turn, winning
easily from Sweepy who stood a long
drive to overtake Brilliant Ray in the
closing strides. St Maurice, highly ia
vored, was away among the trailers and
became enveloped in the dust cloud
created by the flying leaders so that he
was never able to offer much conten-
ton. Incidentally it marked Passe
Partout's graduation from the maiden
ranks.
The nominal feature. the George
Washington Handicap. went to Neddam
after spectacular effort. With the
pasteboard track just to his liking Wilson
sent the son Of Ormondale off to a wide
lead rounding the first turn so that he
was soon six lengths in advance Of
Bygone Days while Slippery Elm and
Gourmand, the only other starters,
trailed. Neddam shortened his stride
slightly entering the stretch from his
q ct frp hut ha ~
dazed. When Bygone Days retired
slippery Elm and Gourmand fought for
second honors with the latter getting
the verdict by a neck though he had
been lashed across the face by the whip
piled by McDermott Slippery Elm's
rider. through the final sixteenth.
