STANTON. DEL, June a.
Delaware Park put another
racing rarity-a triple daily
double payoff. including one
for $l.108.20, one Of the high
est Of all time here--into the
record book yesterday.
The excitement started when
Heliobubble, a 2-year-old geld
ing owned by Mrs. Fendall M.
Claggett Of Upper Marlboro,
Md. came wheeling down the
stretch to beat out Setee a
half length to pay $l39.40.
Heliobubble, never close before,
won his first race in four
starts. with Harold (Red)
Keene up.
The fans were still buzzing
about the long price when
Nancy's Wish reared up in the
gate and unseated Jockey Will
liam Peake. and injured herself
as the field was being lined UP
for the second event. The vet
erinarian ordered the filly
withdrawn and also South Wis
ner, who was in the next stall.
South Wisner received a cut
when kicked on the front legs
by Nancy's Wish.
Two Consolation Payoffs
The double scratch caused
two consolation payoffs and a
refiguring Of the daily double
pool.
Apple Dumping, owned and
bred by John A. Manfuso OF
Chevy Chase, won the second
by a length and three-quarters
at $l7.20 straight, completing
a double worth $1,108.20.
The ten and one hackers who
coupled Heliobubble and Apple
Dumping would have COL
lected $l.193.40 originally, but
few protests were heard when
they took down the bundle.
; There was one $40 ticket and
66 two-dollar tickets on the
Heliobubble Apple Dumping
combination.
The consolation payofs were
not up to the straight price on
the first winner, but they beat
a 50 refund which was formerly
made here before the consola-
ton double was introduced
three years ago.
$5.5O7.7O Is Record
The 81 fans who hooked I'D
Heliobubble and Nancy's Wish

Handicap here.
Puglisi feels that the 6-year-

age in the mile and sixteenth
race. Sharpsburg has made only
one start--a sprint at Garden

Puglisi. a former exercise
boy who got the job as Fair
cloths trainer this past winter

the injury ridden horse should
be retired.
Sharpsburg did not measure
up as a Calumet performer and
was sold in a package deal to
Faircloth in 1857. Trainer
Jimmy Croll developed Sharps-
burg into a top stakes horse
despite a history of broken
bones in his front feet. Sharps-
