lure OF INC allSEuOOfl
This feature was the Bellrose Selling
Stakes, dash of five fur!ongs through
the chute for two-year- -olds that wa
worth s3,575 to the winner. Said win
ner turned up in Mr.. Widener's Equi
uoctial. bay fily that stepped the
.ive-eighths in one minute fiat to win
the big end of the purse. Here, at
least. McAtee deserved quite as much
credit as MIR. Widener's filly, for only
an exceptional ride on his part saved
The day.
Undoubtedly Blanc Seing, which was
disqualified last Wednesday after beat
ing q field of higher quality, was the
best at the weights of the eleven ju-
veniles that paraded to the post for
the Belrose Selling Stakes. The heavy
play developed for this one. as we'll as
for the Rancocas Stables Aladdin But
racing luck eliminated Blanc Seng
from the front place in the pictures
Blanc Seing drew one of the outside
positions. He did not appear quite
ready when the webbing was sprung.
At least he was off sluggishly even
for colt that is known to be a slow
beginner. Merimee eot the favorite
10 running very quickly and Blanc Seing
gradually made up ground until he ap-
peared almost ready to take his place
with the prominent contenders. By
this time the elboy had been reached,
where there usually is a general lam
n the scramble for place. Blanc Seing,
caught IN the swirl, was bumped about
and knocked back until in u few sec
onds he found himself with the dis
carded again.
McAtee Takes Chance
McAtee, in the mean time, had taken
gamble with Equinoctiai when he
1aiied to get off on the right foot. He
took a chance that the field would
swing VIDE at the elbow, which it did.
and this enabled him to save every nos.

Hobgoblin Shows Form
The Oneck Stable uncovered a mighty
handy two-year-old colt in Hobgoblin,
the winner of the closing dash of six
furlongs. 1t WAS the second start for
this latest graduate from the maiden
ranks. The SON of Luke McLuke-
Sprite was generally known to be about
the best Juvenile in Bill Kerrick's
barn, and it seemed only question as
70 whether or not he had fully re-
covered from a very serious illness
that had incapacitated him throughout
the spring and early summer.
Evidently the stable connections
were satisfied that the colt was right.
for he was backed from to / TO IL

Efgel, of the Raucocas Stable. which
went so the post at odds-on. This pair
had the race between them all the way.
