Cambrian in the second race Dunois Dubois in the third and Hurly Burly in the fifth forced men who had their favorites picked to transfer their allegiance elsewhere and gave the man with guessing caps to sell an oppor copper ¬ tunity unity to make some coal money for next winter winterThe wintertime The star event of the day was the meeting of Imp Algol and Abuse at 6 furlongs Satsuma and St Alfonses Alfonso D also being in the race but scarcely considered although Dr Rowells Rowels horse is known as a high class one and the win ¬ ner near of great stake races The unexpected happened and in the most sensational race of the meeting Satsuma getting away absolutely last ran over the others at the finish being rid ¬ den the short road and splendidly rated by Caywood Cawed winning from Algol the last few strides Abuse was third after having led the pack to the last sixteenth Imp was second until after the final quarter was reached but once in the stretch seemed to give up quickly N Turner was on her back and opening at 7 to 10 or shorter she went to the post with even money posted against her name Algol was backed strongly but the bookmakers kept 8 to 5 up for with the 7 to 1 Abuse they had a plight chance of losing 20 to 1 straight and 4 to 1 place was the price about Satsuma As the horses ran around the upper turn the remark was passed they cannot be running fast as there is St Alfonses Alfonso D in company and as Satsuma was lengths behind the latter any price could be had against his winning It looked like a case of Peytonia Petunia at Washington Park or of
