May 1 .- Whimsical IkhI her Metropolitan lii.il in the handicap at MM mile and a sixteenth today and made ■ wretched showing. The male looked well and was a lukewarm choice, go-ing from 7 to .", to :: to I. The betting was sutti-i •!■ nt indication that site was not highly regarded bj her notions, though Matt i.ooram. her owner, who was at the track far tiie 6gul tune thla sea-von. be4 BMS on her. The daughter of Orlando showed little speed at any stage. She was pinched oil at Ihe stall. Inn the inlei Terence was not sulli-ei.tit to have affected lief liaii.es liad she heen the Whimsical of the early jiari of the last season. .she will have to show great improvement ever her performance today to entitle her to consul"" nl ion in an. last coin|.an.. She can hardly be counted npoii as a peeeabte factor Ear the .Men. politan. Robert Tuckers colors were in front at the end a! two races today. VYoodlaue taking the Oieenticld Slakes I loin a fair lot of two year olds, while his recent, acquisition, Jaequin, won his second race in Tackera colors when he galloped oil with the selling affair at one mile and a sixteenth. .I.i.quin coat Tucker 1,560 ten dai s ago and lias won I Vo purses and two Big bets for his new owner. He tried to make it three wins with Mackerel in the ctoatag race to round out. the trio ot meeeeaea. Mackerel was hacked from 16 to 1. to S to 1, bat, away poorly, was never a factor. Tucker leaves tomorrow morning for Louisville. He takes boom good material that is ready to race and should win ikis auaiu of races at Churchill Downs. In Woodbine be has an uncommonly fast filly. Tucker will take .1. Heuuessy west to do the riding in tlie stable. The pwhlie was in rare good form today, as live favorites won. and as the other two winners were well hacked at good odds, the ring got a trouncing that will be remembered. Radtke showed -oine-thing of his old time brilliancy as u rider when he squeezed through at the head of the stretch and got Marathon up to win the fifth race. Radtke put up ■ strong finish and has only to repeat this performance a few times to fully restore himself to favor. Marathon, entered to be sold for .,200. was bid up and purchased bv H. B. Durvea far ,000. .1. L. McGfautia started the bidding and carried it to ,300. when he stopped. Mr. Duryea then bill ,000 and got the horse. J. L. M. Chillis n ok Youthful on one bid of ,000 after the last race. The colt was in for $ 00. Apple Todd] was slightly bum when going to the post for the stake race aaid was nodding badly alter the race. The trouble was in his near .ore-fool and is said to be chronic. Koy A. Kainey has boughl from Malt Byrnes the three year olds fill ah I III ami Stray. K. 1.. Thomas, the Kentucky owner, was a visitor today, but waa not fiat ■Mall enough to aee his colors rletertoaa, though Auut Rose was a contender in the slake until the Jasr half furlong. apiain Jim Williams was a yisitor also. lie brought no horses with him and will remain but a few days. The Columbus Stakes is the principal feature of tomorrows card, but it is probable the fifth ace will attract the most attention, and with Ben Cole. Kirle Baage, 1oremast; Lord Badge, Hon Mid. Kil-leehaa; Sewell. Tanya, Hosemount: Dario. Molesey. Campaigner: Azora. Foxinead. Henry Watterson: C/ueeu Marguerite. Bridge Whist and .Manila among the horses expected to run, excellent racing seems aaaated.
