The races in which Hie records were broken were tin- feature numliers of a good program. Minirie Adams, on the strength of her recent g iod trials and well known liking fur a mile was a strong favorite for the handicap. She was supported not alone by the big sjieculators. but by the public in fxaera.li Her showing was a disappointment in every respect, for at no time was she a factor and despite Nicols urging she trailed her Opponents a bad last all the way. Juggler was at all times the leader in the race and won as his rider pleased. The losses sustained by the Ixmkmakers during the past, week have strained their bankrolls ei n-*ii!ernbly.

Peer tiding was responsible for the defeat of r •illness in the first race and ITorizel in the closing one. It could have liecn expected that Ierrett t , would ride a bad race on Florizel, but J.
