Robinhurst Bangs Fences
Robinhurst made a cliff
hanger out of the Cecil County
Steeplechase of three miles
over timber. With Tommy
Smith OF Warrenton riding,
Robinhurst took of into orbit
at the start, swacked rails at
most of his fences and still had
a powerful run in the stretch
as he edged up on Mrs. Henry
Obre's Coupe de Vite, the
winner.
Robinhurst, owned by George
Weymouth and trained by Eu-
gene Weymouth, was tagged,
logged and made holes for
Grand Chal and the favorite
Gillian until the 18th fence.
when the jockeys on those two
horses forgot the red signs and
took of on the wrong course.
Joe Aitcheson, on Grand Chal,
snatched up. Harry Hatcher.
on Gillian, kept going, hitting
the finish line in front but
fatty disqualified.
Things would not have
changed much had Grand
Chal and Gillian stayed on the
beam. Coupe de Vite, slightly
banged up in a fall here last

inhurst mistaken by his sprint
out in front and his sideline Of
reducing timber to matchSticks.
Gillian finished in front by a
length after taking a half mile
short cut. Coupe de Vite was
tne pest out To-Day.
Hatcher and Aitcheson were
fined $25 each for continuing
