Black Sweep Longest Shot Race Sts With Triumph in Mdebwg Cup
Gided Knight Beats FL Chico,
Johnstown Wins in Double
Ftzsinmons Triumph

Ell Chico, a 1-to-7 favorite at the
start.
AS they broke from the barrier,
the Ziegler colt was on top and
stayed there as Nick Wall rode him
on the rail. Ruperto Donoso, mean
time held Gilded Knight off the pace
and didn't start his bid until they
rounded the far turn.
Then he moved up and looked
Chico In the eye. They rounded into
the stretch a head apart, with the
John P. Grier offspring still showing
on top. and they battled head to
head all the way down to the wire,
with the 6-1 shot taking it by a nose
in the final strides.
A photo had to decide the thing,
with Gilded Knight, which had been
an entry with Sea Captain, winner
in 1:112s. Sea Captain took the
show spot, four lengths back.
Another One for Sunny Jim.
Sunny Jim still was laughing up
his sleeve at that one when the bugle
called the Paumonok field, cut to
six by scratches. 1t might Just as
well have been trimmed down to one,
because it was Johnstown, ridden by
Jimmy Stout, all the way. Mrs. E.
G. Lewis surprising Paghacci was
second, six lengths behind.
Carrying 1l2 pounds, Johnstown
breezed the 6 furlongs in 1:1lH and
returned the favorite's price Of Z to S,
as we'll as the winners $3.50 share
OF the purse to owner William
Woodward. Pagliacci, paired with
Great Union, paid rs for place, and
Early Delivery, with Don Meade UP,
was 1-2 for show. Earl Sande's The

A jam occurred at the first turn.
with Aethelwold and Battlejack be-
ing the chief sufferers.
In the meantime, AL Shelhamer
kept Sun Egret well out in the CEN
ter Of the track and clear of all
interference. At the eighth pole,
Sun Egret rushed to the front
to win going away. The colts score
gave his popular Maryland trainer
the greatest day he has enjoyed in
many years.
Hold BedwelI Is Tops.
Bedwell, whom many unbiased
horsemen claim is Americas best
conditioner of a thoroughbred,
topped the list in 1908. Then in
1912 he won again and never was
ousted from the leadership until
1918, giving him a record of six
consecutive titles and seven for
his career.
The Colonial Handicap, mile and
10 yards secondary feature, pro-
duced a rousing finish with Maj.
Raj PARIS Hypocrite beating w. E.
Boeing's Piccolo after they had run
the distance in 1:4345. He paid
$3.50. Hypocrite followed the pace
to the far turn, opened a long lead,

NEW YORK, April 15.-The Ken
lucky Derby winter books were given
kicking around today as the IA
vored Ell Chico was beaten for the
first time and the big bay Johns
town waltzed in with a 6-length
victory before a crowd Of 10000
which turned out for Jamaica's
opening day.
To Trainer Sunny Jim Fitzsim-
mons. the gray little master mind,
went the honors on both coun.s. He
saddled the Wheatley Stables Cs.ld-
ed Knight, the colt which handed
Chico the first defeat in that little
red-head's racing career.
Then, in the featured $500 added
Paumonok Handicap, he sent Johns
town to the post and the Belair
Studs long-striding hopeful won all
by himself.
For both colts it was the first start
since their coming of age" Al
though they ran in different races,
both were asked to go furlongs,
Chico in an overnight allowance.
AS a 2-year-old. Ell Chico, William
Ziegler, jr.'s little chestnut, won
seven straight races and $84, 100,
twice beating Johnstown.
