BY ROBERT HENRY,


WASHINGTON, Va, July l5.-
Royalty II, strapping chestnut colt
owned by E. L. Redmon Of Middle
burg, repeated his triumph Of last
year to win the championship Of the
18th Annual Rappahannock County
Horse Show before 1000 fans here
today. Reserve honors went to Mrs.
John Hay Whitney's Spring Hope.
District of Columbia represent
atives performed we'll, but only black
Caddy, owned by Fred Hughes, jr,
was able to crash through with q
blue. Rocksie, owned and ridden
by Margaret Cotter, picked up two
red ribbons and third place to help
keep capital horses prominent.
Hobo, 22-year-old owned by H. H.
Butz and ridden by Malvern Bell,
captured the two main open jumping
classes when he cleared 51z feet to
win the knockdown-and-out and
later beat formidable field in the
touch-and-out.
Championship Race Close.
The race for the championship
was close as the final Corinthian
class got under way. Spring Hope,
recent champion at Culpeper, had II
points, most of which we're won on
Friday, while Royalty II had II.
Both performed well over the outside
course to make it nip and tuck for
the decisive conformation and ap-
pointment judging.
After long consideration, the ofii-
cials awarded the blue and five
points to the Redmon 4-year-old,
a son of War Whoop. Mrs. Whit
ney's DR.. Carr took second place
ahead of Spring Hope.
Black Caddy gave Hobo great
fight for honors in the knockdown-
and-out, but finally refused and
Hobo went over the 5la feet to VIC
tory. Miss Cotters Rocksie was
forced to clear 512 feet to claim the
yellow ribbon over Nip.
In the touch-and-out, Hobo again
proved best for the day, clearing S
feet with little trouble. Rocksie and
Santa Claus had to 60 around three
times before the former took Sec
ond ribbon.
Black Caddy GetS Blue.
In the Olympic trials class, with
the course cleverly trapped with
strange barriers, Gay Cockade beat
Rocksie IN a jump-off for first.
Black Caddy. with Lisbeth Steig
up, finally crashed through to
blue when he made show of the
opposition to win the open-to-all
sweepstakes class.
