NEW YORK, May 27.-It was the
same old story at Belmont Park
today as Twilight Tear ran her
string of victories to seven straight
and once again proved that she
is the queen of the 3-year-old fillies.
Favorite at the prohibitive odds
of lilo, the bay daughter of Bull
Lea from Warren Wright's Calumet
Farm soundly whipped five other
fillies of her age in the mile and
three-eighths of the American
Coaching Club Oaks before a crowd
of 34,475 that produced several un-
usual angles in the wagering.
Track Takes Financial Beating.
The total bet on the race was
$466 PAT, unusual in view of the fact
that one horse was such a standout.
The show pool of $186,774, of which
$l59, ,282 was Wagered on the Calu-
met filly, was larger than the win
pool of $l70,657 and cost the man
agement $l4,97l95 since the law
requires that 10 cents be returned
on each 81 invested. Twilight S
support in the win betting totaled
sl36,442.
AS the result of her heavy back
Ing the winner paid s220 for So to
win and $3.50 to place while giving
the show players the minimum OF
$2.10.

Twilight ear, Ito Shot, Grabs
Belmont Race for 9TH in Row

The race itself was Twilight Tears
from start to finish. Conn Nc
Creary broke the bay f1lly smartly
and she was on the front end all
the way, pulling away in the stretch
to win by five lengths. Dare Me
from Mrs Dodge Sloane's Brook
meade Stable was second, four
lengths in advance of Plucky Maud
from the Lazy F Ranch.
Her time of 2:2l was not sensa-
tional in comparison with Man
O'War'S track record of 2:1415 but
she won under wraps.
Boosts EARNINGS to S81,865
The victory was worth $l2,255 and
boosted her earnings for the year to
SAT 255 and for two seasons of rae
ing to $81,865. The only defeat
charged against the Ben Jones'
trained fllly this season was in her
initial start when she was third
behind two older horses at Hialeah
Park.
Another string of victories was
broken, however, when w. f. Boe-
ing's Devils Thumb finished last in
the six furlongs of the Roseben
Handicap, won by Deering Howe's
lightly regarded Cassis. Devils
Thumb was making his first start
since winning five successive 2-year-
old stakes at Saratoga In 1912
Cassis paid off at s48.20 to win in
taking the purse of $5,225 in the fast
time Of 1:103s.
