Due to poor truck conditions the ficlils in tin; different dashes set for this afternoon were of small size mid ordinary caliber, the- two-year-old sprint, which opened proceedings, containing the largest number ot starters and it resulted in a victory for lied Red Rose, carr.wing the colors of the Greentree Stable Mrs. Payne Whitney. The filly is a good looking miss, by Whisk Broom II. Cardamine, and may develop into a good racing machine, for despite her stumbling she overcame Miss Minks advantage and beat the latter home by a. close margin under a punishing drive. Oleaster, which finished third, might have been the winner but for his bad blunder in the stretch, which almost caused him to fall. The race, was always between the above trio. Path racing was the order, all the horses being guided for the outside, and the result of the scramble for the .strip of firmer footing was that the fields wire closely bunched in the majority of instances and several of the races developed spirited finishes. Parlor Hoy in the second race managed to out-ss.y Mar Tom In the last few strides. Hasty Cora, lie of the starters in this, pulled up immediately after the start, and investigation disclosed her to b-? suffering from an aggravated case of kidney 1 rouble. Itathilde, favorite. Like Mar Tom, succumbed to Miss Kruter after u drive in tlip third race. Selma G. carried .Take Greenbergs colors to, ..victory, in-the- fourth race. Her" victory was unexpected and she just lasted long enough to outstay Margery and True as Steel. Sosius in this ran ii lull race and finished away back. He was favorite. .la so n took the fifth race from an ordinary band, with Alma I?, and Merry Twinkle following. Amelita, backed confidently, outstayed Ninety Simples in the sixth, and Lord Herbert ran a good race to overhaul Old Ken, the favorite, with Luetic P. following the pair. Jockey Cassitys apprentice allowance expired with his victory on .Jason in the fifth race. It marked the boys fortieth winning mount. Cassity had been carded to ride Semper Stalwart in the seventh race, but as that horse had the apprentice allowance, Kurke was substituted. Ilotli jockeys Troxler and Merimee had their first mounts at the meeting this afternoon and botii riders were unfortunate. Hasty Cora, which Troxler rode, was pulled up, while Merimee was unseated from Doily at the start of the fourth race. The stewards ordered that the further entry of Doily be refused. The filly is a chronic bad actor and schooling her to the barrier lias little effect on her behavior while at the post. Judge K. C. Smith, who lias been confined to his hotel for the past three weeks with an attack of illness, is aide to be about, but he will not resume his duties for several days. John Ferriss lost Amelita. when Steve Judge claimed the mare for SI, 000. Judge was represented in the race by Noureddin.
