LORD BRIGHTON EASY VICTOR • Experiences Little Trouble Winning Youthful Stakes. ♦ Hannibals Heavy Impost Anchors Him — Jyntee and Harwood H. Surprise Their Backers. * New York. June 20. — Lord Prighton. carrying the colors of George Smith, the owner of the Prighton Stable, accounted for the valuable Youthful Stakes, the feature of todays sport at Jamaica. A large attendance was present when the bugle called the eight starters to the post in the Youthful, with Lord Prighton. Routledge. Yuru-cari and Hannibal coining in for strong support ou the part of the public. The talent were wary of Hannibal, because they feared he could not concede the weight and the result of the race proved their surmises correct. Routledge was first to show in front and set a fast pace to the stretch, closely followed by War Mask. Hannibal and Lord Prighton in the order named. After rounding the last turn Lyke called on Lord Prighton and the Ballot colt moved up like a flash. In a twinkling Lord Prighton was iu front and, drawing away, won by two lengths, with Koutlodgo second and Yurucari third. Hannibals heavy impost told on him at the end and he fiu-ished a badly lieaten and tired horse. J. S. Tyree and R. F. Carman sent Sc.i Pirate and The Poy respectively, to the imst in tlie stake as added starters, but neither had anything to do with the race, both trailing all the way. TiMlays was the sixth running of the Youthful Stakes, the condensed history of which is as follows : Year. Winner. Wt. JiK-key. Val. Time. 1903 Hazel.vood 112 J.

Clear skies and ideal weather, aided materially in bringing out a big crowd. The track was fast. The talent was hard hit by the failures of Jyntee and Harwoml -IL, both outstanding favorites in their resiH-ctive races. Harwood II. apin-ared to outclass those opposed to him in the closing race and was accordingly supported. His backers, however, had not counted on the suddenly improved form of Langdcn. which quickly dashed to the front and oiH-ned up a big lead liefore the others were fairly in their stride. Knsor never let up on him and Langden began to tire in the. stretch, but Troise. ou HarwiMjd IL. was too confident and did not call ou the iierz racer until too late, with the result that he was beaten a length, when he should have easily won. The first race of the afternoon was a keenly contested struggle, with a majority of the field closely bunched to the stretch and having a chance to will. JI. L. Schwartz English-bred filly Flyaway set the pace throughout and hung on gaiie-ly in the final drive wh n hard pressed by Polygon, to get the verdict by a nose. Polygon should have won. She began slowly, went wide on the last turn and. finishing with terrific speed, was fast overhauling Flyaway at the end. A stride beyond at the finishing mark she was in front. JYNTEE FAILS TO OVERTAKE ENFILADE. The defeat of Raymond Belmonts fleet filly Jyntee by Enfilade in the second race was surprise enough in itself, but the easy way in which the French -bred miss cantered away from the Pelmout representative was astonishing. However, the start practically decided the race, as Enfilade got away flying and. running to the go-Mi form she displayed last year as a two-year old. increased her advantage as the race progressed and was eight lengths in front of Jyntee at the finish. The latter was away slowly, worked her way up ou the outside and. finishing gamely, outlasted Mary Maud, but never had a chance to overtake the flying winner. Sam Hildreths Teacher led Home Sweet Home a merry chase in the mile and a sixteenth dash run as the thini race. Poacher displayed remarkable sliced, quickly opened a big lead and easily held it to the end. Home Sweet Home r:ln ; good game race, but could never reach the leader, not alone pass him. Nutcracker carried W. R. Cues colors to victory in the fifth race, racing Kate Pright into defeat on the far turn and drawing away into a safe lead in the final eighth. Oresies performance in tliis race showed a big improvement over recenl efforts and it may lie that this well-bred son of Tracery will siMHi show a return to the form he displayed at Havana last winter. Gus Muller. one of the well-known Peihidclp!-i.-i owners of horses, died on Monday in Atlantic City, where he had gone for his health. Mr. Mulh-r hail owned horses for a number of years, Flittergold being one of his late purchases. C. W. Gasser was an arrival from Louisville. His stable of four head are en route to Aqueduct. R. F. Carman succeeds Nash Turner as trainer for the T. P. Thorne establishment. The Prighton Stable has given jm-key Rowan a weeks vacation. His employer thinks a rest of a few days will do him g MMl. as he has been riding out of form and carelessly. "After a weeks vacation J. McTaggart came back much impioved. and Rowan may do likewise." was the remark of Rowans contract employer. Early today Albert Simons made arrangement; by wire to have jin-key Schuttinger go to Latonia to ride Johren in the I .a Ionia Derby Saturday. Im--catisc it was feared Frank Robinson would l e unable to ride on account of the mishap he met yesterday in the Clipsetta Stakes at Latonia. when his mount. Galli-Curci, was caught in a jam and unseated her rider. Later in the afternoon Simon wired cancelling the engagement made with Schut tinger. saying that Robinson had sufficiently recovered to be able to ride Saturday.
