The Antietam Handicap, the fifth

Flying Cross Falls Dead.

THE chestnut colts easy triumph
added to the conviction that War
Admiral and Pompoon stand head and
shoulders above the country's other
3year-olds. There was little to indi-
cate that any horse in the race would
challenge the pair seriously when they
match strides again in the mile and
a half of the Belmont Stakes June 5.
Only two of the overnight entries
failed to answer the call to boots
and saddles. The Manhasset Stables

CLASSICAL SWEEP

Fourth to Annex Derby,

the mile-and-a-half stake at Belmont
Park June S, or one of his daddy's
old friends will be very much sur
prised.
In the Derby Man O. Wars little boy
brown showed us he has plenty of
speed and stamina when he took the
| track at the outset and galloped his
field dizzy.
In the Preakness, he showed some
thing else-plenty of Big Reds courage
to stand of challenges from Pom
| poon after leading all the way.
If he holds that form, the mighty
atom from Glen Riddles Stable is
capable Of beating those 3-year- olds
| until they starye to death.
Yes, sir. he certainly reminds me
Of his daddy when rode him.
The Admiral has the same habit
of beating them the hard way-from
"eend to eend"-as John Harper OF
Ten Brock fame used to say
He makes his own racing luck.
And if some of the others are back
there being slammed around-Well,
why are they back there in the first
place?
Wants to Be Fair.
IN THE Derby the Faraway Flyer
ran the second fastest mile and
quarter on record for the race; in
the Preakness he was only two-flfths
off the record, despite an OF track.
That's runnin', plain and fancy
| Now, I'm not out on limb for Mr..
Riddles colt just because I admire that
grand old sportsman who has been
such real friend to me.
I just want to give the Admiral all
the credit due. He should be Won

he'll lure the public-at least until
and If he gets beaten. They all do
that if they race long enough. Even
Man O. War lost once.
But Pompoon deserves plenty OF
praise, although it does look as if he
! just can't quite take the Admiral.
He ran second, as predicted, in the
Preakness. but couldn't quite make it,
even though he saved ground at the
top Of the highway home.
Should Pack Belmont Park.
| A T THAT there are plenty of races
Pompoon can win. He must be
about the toughest colt that has won
the Futurity in many a moon.
Remember when he was second in
the Derby he was closer than any Fu-
turity winner came to winning there
since Proctor Knots time, 1899, the
year after the Futuritys first running
To me. Pompoon is better colt over
a distance of ground than most ex-
pertS imagined he'd be.
| With the Admiral and Pompoon
ready to race it out again in the Bel
mont, they should pack the park as
1t hasn't been jammed since old Zev
and I beat Papyrus in the interna-
tional race.
And Brooklyn, which didn't come up
right for the Derby. will be a fresh
horse in the Belmont, hear.
The close Preakness gives Pompoon
followers new hope, which means an
other real race. But the Admirals
victory certainly was a tonic for Mr..
Riddle, who missed the Derby and de-
served to see the Admiral do it again.
