standing drive to take the honors over
Cimarron by head. The latter's rider
registered claim OF foul because Tody
had impedeG his mount slightly within
the final eighth by herding, but W clam
was dismissed, to the chagrin of the
oralizers, who after having laid 4 and 3
to l against the mare before the run

which price some found eager takers who
figured that the mare was equally as
well off as those which had been COM
