The secondary feature of the afternoon, the Essex Purse at a mile and a sixteenth for three-year-olds and over, brought out a well-matched band and the winner turned up in J. K. L. Rosss Finery, ridden by Chalmers in a confident manner. Sangrado took second money, while Westwood was a tiring third. The latter was installed the choice and flattered for the greatest part of the race, but succumbed to the rush of Sangrado, which in turn fell before the challenge of Finery. The latter was under restraint in the early running and, saving ground on the turns, came tast through the stretch. The best finish of the afternoon came in the running of the race for Canadian-breds when Dellahm had m nose verdict over Chloris. It was a case of riders at the ena and Smallwood proved best. 3IAKE UP WINS niS FIRST. Make Up, after several attempts, graduated from the non-winners ranks in the opening dash at three-quarters by a wide margin over Anglum Maid and Air Tan. P. Poierer, on Jewell V. D., graduated, due to the overzealousness of C. Demmerell, on Claymore, who crowded him to the fence in the last twenty yards, forcing Poierer to take his mount up. Claymore apparently had the race won but for the mishap. The official placing was changed to Jewell V. D., Walk Up, American Boy before the boys had returned to weigh in.
