BOWIE RACING NOTES

Ipect. The filly broke the cannon
bone Just below the knee and
there is no way to explain the
accident.
On the happier side. Lord
Chumley. a 3-year-old colt by
the great Stymie and Adven-
turous. herself a daughter Of
Discovery, has been doing ex-
tremely well. One Of the biggest
horses at Bowie, standing II
hands. Lord Chumley won his
first race last week and lost a
nose decision to Strong Point
on Monday.
White believes that Lord
Chumley might move up to
stakes competition later in the
season. He is a rugged horse
who should like to run longer
distances than the sprints he
has been limited to so far.
The stewards handed Jockey
Roger Leblanc a $50 fine for
making a frivolous claim OF foul
against High Kelvin in Mondays
fifth race. Leblanc rode On The
Ropes.
Bobby Strange. who is attempt
ing another comeback, also was
fined by the stewards. He must
pay $25 for failing to get within
the weight limit in yesterdays
first race.
Despite the rain and fog yes
terday. some 9,513 fans turned
out and wagered $830.050.
The rain yesterday turned
Bowie's track sloppy for the first
time since February IS. The
mud failed to produce any ex-
tremely long prices and three
favorites got home safely.
Rockwell Pete. owned by
Milton Polinger OF Washington.
won the second race, completing
an $3.50 daily double started by
Sir Rarco. One OF the most

two months to everybody. But
Immediately after the committee
was reversed, Delegate Machen,
Democrat of Prince Georges,
leader of the upset movement,
