GOSHAWK VICTOR IN
GREAT AMERICAN
H. p. Whitney Colt Beats Big
Field of Juveniles at Aque-
duct-Grey Lag Wins.
BY HENRY v. KING.

While Harry Payne Whitney's great
three-year-o colt Whiskaway was
winning the $4,000 Latonia Special
Mr.. Whitney was at the Aqueduct
track watching Goshawk, another one
of his prospective champions, win
ming the Great American Stake. Cos
hawk ran like truly great colt. and
after he defeated a big field of the
best juveniles in training Mr.. Whit
ney said he received just as great n
thrill watching him race as he would
have received if he were at Latonia.
He also added that he received quite "A
thrill when Yale beat Harvard in the
boat race on Friday, but it wasn't to
be compared to seeing his young
homebred~coit beat such a good field.
Goshawk has plenty of speed as he
demonstrated last week, but he seems
to have plenty of gameness and stamina
besides. He stood a long, hard drive
and with the whip playing a tattoo on
his flsnks he came from behind and to
roars of approval from more than %, 900
racegoers won by a length. Willis
Sharpe Kilmer's homebred colt Sunfer-
ence took the second end of the purse
by few inches from John L. Madden's
Bud Lerner.
Goshawk didn't run nearly as fast as
he did on Thursday, when he came
down the five furlong chute In 5S rs
seconds. His time yesterday was SO is.
But despite the time, his race was much
better. He carried lis pounds. seven
more than in his previous start, received
rather poor ride from Morris and beat
much better horses. His victory earned
him s7.750 and the reputation Of being
the best Juvenile that has been shown
this season.
