Mishap Spoils a Well-Planned Betting Coup with Belle Mawr as the Medium Guy Gray Gets Another Horse Out of Selling Race. Jacksonville, Fla., January 13. The winter season of racing in Jacksonville is now at its height and tie crowds at Moncrief Park are the largest of tin meeting. Todays attendance filled the big grandstand and speculation in the ring was exceedingly brisk. A good card of six events was provided by the club, with a six-furlongs sprint ns the feature. Miss Marjorie, in taking the breeders purse, was the only winner of the afternoon that had anything to spare. Four of the finishes were close and in two of them short margins separated the lirst two. An accident in the second race, in which Belle Mawr swerved to the inner rail in the stretch aud crushed her riders foot, spoiled a well-planned coup. Itelle Mawr was heavily backed and was beaten a short bead by King of Yolo. Hut for the mishap above mentioned, she would have won easily. Davis had to be carried to the paddock after dismounting aud will be out -of the saddle for a few weeks. Guy Gray added another racer to his string after ISad News II. beat Premier a head in the third race. It was a selling affair and Bad News II. was entered for 00.
