Runs Full Tilt Into Hocnir While Moving Up Fast on Stretch Turn Horse and Rider Escape Serious Injury News of Winter Meetings. Cincinnati. 0., November 3. An accident that for a time threatened serious consequences attended the running of the feature race at Latonia today when Dorothy Dean, an overwhelming favorite, and ridden by It. Small, fell on the stretch turn while going at top speed. The mare turned a complete somersault and rolled over her rider with force. Small remained motionless on the track in 11 kneeling posture, his head to the ground until aid reached him. He quicklj- recovered and a careful examination showed that beyond a severe shaking up he had escaped injury. The mishap came when Dorothy Dean, moving up fast and about to make the stretch turn, ran full tilt into Hocnir. The impact almost took Hocnir off his feet and eliminated him from contention. Brooklield and Leo Skolny were the leaders at the time and they escaped interference, while Prince Kermis, the trailer, was guided close to the inner , rail and avoided the prostrate mare. Prince Hermis later wore down the leaders and won by a comfortable .margin. Early, in the day Cecil, ridden by J. Acton, fell .during the running of the third race.

Cardigan again proved himself to be a shifty sort by an easy victory in the second race. Lady Colonist proved a disappointment in the fifth race, and failed to get any part of the purse, though supported with rare confidence by her connections.
