Pixy. which Richard L. Wilson, Jr.,
bred on his kirklevington Farm in
Kentucky, won the Babylon Handicap,
the feature of the program at the
Aqueduct track yesterday afternoon.
Last spring Tall Timber earned a
reputation as an exceptionally fast
colt, but one possessing little stamina.
In his races he displayed terrific speed,
but began to stop after running half
a mile. Yesterday there was no stop
to him. He took the lead as the bar
rier went up and under perfect han
ding by Buddy Ensor galloped all
through the home stretch to win by
three lengths. Mrs. Payne Whitney's
Cherry Pie was second and John e.
Madden's Heremon third. Tall Timber
covered the six furlong route in the
real good time OF / III As.
August Belmonts Osprey was the
favorite for the race, but finished a dis
tant fourth. He failed to display the
speed expected from him and was never
q serious contender. Runviso, which left
the barrier well, showed a good burst
OF speed for furlong and then faltered.
There was little of the race to de-
scribe. Tall Timber raced to the front
soon after the start and held command

position all the way, but had to be hard
ridden TO beat Heremon for the second
end or the purse
