LAKKSIDE LAKESIDE RACING That Virginia Bradleys Bradley Boney Bony Boy is an iron horaa hooray and capable of standing the same tough treatment that his sire Blitzon Blitz did is no longer a matter of doubt in the minds of those who hare been close observers of the Lakeside races Yesterday for the fifth time in a week the colt baa been sent to the post and in three of these starts he won was second once and unplaced once He has been sent all sort 3 of distances from five furlongs up to a mile and has been asked to beat some of the best horses at the track Saturday last he galloped away from Frank Bell and Queen of Song at three quarters Monday at a mile he finished behind Timemaker Tidemark Al Fresco and The Devil Tuesday the youngster got a rest Wednesday he won at seven furlongs Thursday Gold Fox boat him at five furlongs and yesterday just as fresh na a daisy although some say Bradley thought he might be a bit short he beat an allaged alleged Held at seven furlongs in a common gallop I IThere There There were sixteen original entries in the rac race but half of these were scratched Storm i vktoJid Timemaker Tidemark were among the scratches Wim Swim tnese tense two out of the way Bradley smiled and remarked that he did not think that there was anything to it His statement proved to be correct and Boney Bony Boy getting off sec ¬ ond bond went right on to the front and at the finish he was five open lengths to the good He finished fresh and full of running and if noth moth ¬ ing King happens wjll will be started right back again today in the mile race which seems to be at his mercy mercyWalkenshaw Walkenshaw Waukesha who finished second to Boney Bony Boy was backed from 15 to 1 down to 8 to 1 and ran a cracking good race He got away fifth and nut with interference on the first turn Down the backstretch though he had a clear path and made up ground rapidly getting the place as easily as Boney Bony Boy won Better bundled a lot of money could have been made out of this horse His first Lakeside start was against OOonnell Boone and Montgomery he finish Jug third The field he had to beat yesterday was far above the ordinary and when he gets in where he belongs his party will have to take a short price for their money moneyAlgatetii moneybag Algatetii Agate made her initial appearance this year in this same race but showed none of her twoyearold toehold form The filly looked good and pulled up sound She has bean sick the entire season but Mr Havill Hail says she is all right now and will be shipped to New Orleans for a win ¬ ters tears campaign Last fall 10000 was refused for this filly fillyIt filly It would bo out of the ordinary course of affairs at Lakeside for a day to pass without a surprise but everything up to the fifth race was tame and as Schorrs Scorers good sprinter Sligo Lingo II with Burns up seemed to have this at his mercy it looked as though the surprise would bo shut out Such however was not the case as after the horses had passed the wire and number eleven was hung out the spectators looked at each other in amazement then at their score cards and discovering that Mary KinsoUa Kino was the winner at once proceeded to learr lear 4frat her price was The filly was at one time as good as 75 to 1 bnt bent went to the post at 0 to 1 The race was a peculiarly run one and plainly demonstrated that no matter how much a horse outclasses his field he must be fit and ready in order to run in the mud Sligo Lingo II on his best form far outclassed the field but after several breakaways at the post in which he was much used the horse got tired Uncas Uncaps was presented with a rnnniug start and led by daylight all down the backstretch and to the quarter post when he stopped badly Sligo Lingo II ha i been in second position the entire I journey and when Uncas Uncaps chucked it up be went to the front and when straightened away for home looked all over a winner Below the eighth post though the Schorr Scorer horse began to show signs of distress and Burns went to his whip All at once up shot something in white on the inside and coming with a winning rush passed Sligo Lingo II as though he was stationary and won by threequarters treasurers of a length It was Mary Kinsflla Insufflate and everything was silence until han dicapper diaper Ed OMalley Tomalley discovered who it was then he let out a yell that almost lifted the top off the stand He had bet 4 to win at 75 to 1 and about the same amount to show on the filly Newsgatherer Newscaster who had got away badly nipped Sligo Lingo out by a nose for the place placeFollowing playfellow Following right on top of Mary Kinsellas Knells suc such ¬ cess came the victory for another long shot This was Count Fonso Fonts at 15 to 1 in the last race Caywood Cawed rode him and getting off seventh managed to avoid interference on the first turn On the backstretch he wont to the front and the Count having speed to loan galloped along in front all the way and came home the easiest kind of a winner Double Dummy after being bumped and interfered with at the half mile ground recovered gamely and boat Moncreith Noncredit for the place The latter was an 8 to 5 favorite and heavily played Burns rode him and he had no excuses other than those in front of him had too much speed speedThe seethe The only close finish of the day occurred in the first race which was a threequarter treasurer dash for maiden fillies Exquisite won but it took her best efforts to beat Lady Fitzsimmons The latter had quite a turn of speed and led by a couple of lengtbs lengths to the head of the stretch where Exquisite joined her From the eighth post to the wire the pair had it nip and tuck and flashed by the judges almost on even terms The second race furnished a moderately close finish Nora Ives Wives was the winner but had the race been a sixteenth further a different story might have been told She got away flying and was clear of everything at the head of the stretch but right at the end she was failing rapidly and was lucky to beat Martha Fox who was coming strongby strongly threequarters treasurers of a length The mile and a half race was a tame affair Swordsman got away second bnt bent immediately wont to the front and leading the entire jour ¬ ney NE won with a lot in hand Lucid driven out was second and George Lee third Swords ¬ man was a 2 to 1 shot and well played He seeme seemed to bo cherry ripo rio just now nowThe note The entire stable of Walden Sweet will be sold at auction at an early date Billy Mason is in good form now and will make a useful horse this winter at New Orleans
