ike childhood's happy laughter.
The customary holiday transient go,
i fore and aft and from both barrels
The association stooled him down to
he track with an advertised card OF
unusual merit; the horsemen saw to
y tsat this gala attraction was shot
81 full of holes through scratching
that q county fair would be ashamed
Of the result. And the achalkers'
completed the general CONSERVATION by
harpooning the guiieaess irregulars
every time they stuck their heads
above the parspet. The only happy
smiles that left the track (Rside from
the oralists) were worn by insiders
who were at the round table when GER
tain melons were sliced. OF that anon.
The Westmount Stables Sennings
Park won the Interborough Handicap
that was the feature and which was
worth $500 to the winner. This
gem OF a days battered diadem was
not so phoney when lined up against
local fall styles even though the real
advertised class had been withdrawn IN
Mad Halter, Knobbie, Tryster and
Emotion. Ii was fine betting race
for q field of four, and three of the
four were heavily supported. Sennirgs
Park, Frank J. Farrell's Horologe and
H. Waterson's Brainstorm commanded
the play while Hephaistos receded. The
three that finished in the money see
sawed in popular favor and at times
were practically upon even terms o.
public admiration.
Sennings Parks Fine Race
Sennings Park ran grand race and
one deserving of victory. For over q
track that was good at best he reeled
OF the mile and sixteenth in AS 2-5
which was just one-ffth second off the
track record set by Brainstorm the
Sennings Park, which carried 118
pounds, as against ninety-eight packed
by the three-year- the day he made
the record, conceded three pounds by
the scale to Brainstorm yesterday af
ternoon and the latter had picked up
ten pounds over the occasion of his
last sensational race. But there were
many who believed that good as Sen
nings Park was Brainstorm might have
taken his measure yesterday afternoon
with better ride.
Laverne Fator, who, when he cares,
is one of the very greatest riders in
America. was severely criticized for
the manner in which he handled Brain
storm. Fator trailed the field many
lengths back for quarters OF
mile, though his mount always was
full Of running. He did not turn
Brainstorm loose till we'll down the
stretch, and then after he had saved
many lengths when the rest OF the
field swung wide into the stretch.
Larry Lyke delivered masterpiece
in horsemanship with SenniIngs Park,
rating his mount smoothly all the way
and delivering regular Garrison
finish at the end. The Westmount
chestnut, off slowly on the rail, soon
raced up into the lead, and under mild
restraint opened lead of two lengths
in the run up the backstretch. Horo-
logue and Hephaistos fought it out
nose and nose, meanwhile, for the con-
tending honors. Hephaistos faltered
going to the far turn and here Horo-
logue made serious bid. McAtee
quickly stepped up with the Farreh
horse until he was Tapped on the pace
maker rounding the home bend. Lyke
made very wide turn, carrying Horo-
io1ue to the outside of the track
Hephaistos swung wide behind the
others.
Horologe Tries Hard
Then began stirring duel between
Sennings Park and Horologe.. They
fought nose to nose under hard drive
Hephaistos then came to the outside
and Brainstorm saved many lengths
by skimming the rail. They were all
go we'll punched that 1t appeared any
one might win from the furlong pole.
Horologue, to the extreme outside,
hung on gamely to the sixteenth, where
he began to bear out, as a tired horse
will do. The distance was too far for
him and the weight too much, for Nc
Atee rode at four pounds over. Then.
too, McAtee is not particularly noted
for his strong finishes. Of the four,
Brainstorm was now running the
strongest and he continued to close
ground on Sennings Park right to the
end. There easily might have been
different story had not Fator lain
30 far OFT in the early pace.
The Rancocas Stable engineered the
biggest killing of fall racing. when
Earl Sande brought home Satellite win
ner in the third race, a dash of six
furlongs for two-year-old maiden colts
and geldings Satellite, backed from
s to ito 5 to 2, was favorite at post
time. The Oak Ridge Stables Sakah
also heavily played, had all the earl,
foot and soon opened up a lead Of
several lengths, but tired at the six
Sande. of course, put it over Cliff
Robinson when it came to the matter
Of finish.
Sande's masterful ride here was il
direct contrast to that on Raffles in
the first race, when che heavily played
favorite was beaten by Ben Wood, alb.
soluteiy overlooked in the betting. Raj.
fies rushed eff into the lead and seemed
under wraps rounding the turn. But
Ben Wood hung on gamely and moved
up to challenge. Ben Wood went away
wide turning into the stretch and
Sande, on the inside, went wide with
him, evidently believing he had the
race in and that he would allow nc
advantage in footing. In other words
he rode Ben Wood and not Raffles, for
the ground he lost on the turn cost
him the race. Ben Wood outgamed the
fayorite in the drive through the
stretch to win by a half length.
