jng home Frank Browns Titan and Water J Salmons Powhatan Titan was the one to set the pace but Adios raced right along with him while Towhatan trailed at the heels of the pair and under slight restraint Arnold was con ¬ tent to race with Titan to the head of the stretch and there when Powhatan moved lie called on Adios and after a sharp brush he put Titan away and through the last eighth he was easily master masterPqwhatan Pqwhatan tired when called on and Titan stuck it out to save second place The race was a swiftlyrun one when 1 11 was the time hung out outOne One of the best races of the day was the mile and a sixteenth of the Forest Hills Handicap in which J P Smiths Sun For ivard displayed an altogether new form to stick it out resolutely and win with some ¬ thing to spare over Crossfire from the Log Cabin Stud Stable with L H Rowes Sepoy rather a distant third and Bonnie Maginn fourth Crossfire was rushed out to make the pace and Ellis went after him with Sun For vvard McAtee had Sepoy rating along in third place and he was soon joined by Needle Gun while Bonnie Maginn was last but galloping strongly and well under restraint restraintIt It was threeeighths from home that Mc ¬ Atee made his move with Sepoy and he sent him to Crossfire and Sun Forward At the same time Needle Gun moved up with a rush until they were all closely lapped and fight ¬ ing along as they approached the finish line lineThis This did not last long and Sun Forward drew out slightly Crossfire had saved ground oriythe turn and he was much in the running An eighth out McAtee was hard at work on Sepoy but the son of Wrack had given up his best and he tired badly while Sun Forward was holding Crossfire perfectly safe in the run to home homeThe The race was something of a surprise in the light of recent races in which Sun For vard had not shown an ability to race even six furlongs furlongsCAPTAIN CAPTAIN KIDI DISQUALIFIED DISQUALIFIEDThe The falls that came with the running of the

and H K Bliss War Queen third This race was over the mile and seventy yards distance and early in the action War Queen found her way to the command and she was the one to cut out the running to the head of the stretch where she was joined by both Vagabond King and Captain Kidd and in the drive home Captain Kidd proved to have more left when he was first by a narrow margin and Mohammed namcl while a distant third beat the tired War Queen for that part of the purse purseThe The falls came just before the horses reached the threeeighths post At that time Captain Kidd was moving up with a rush on the outside As he raced along he bore over there was a piling up of the runners and Belle of the Rocks racing on the inside went down with little G Rose Gussie Bain close after the filly fell over her with G Arnold and then Partner stumbled into the mess and fell witli Eddie Barnes BarnesBoth Both Barnes and Arnold were quickly up none the worse for the fall while Rose had to be brought back in the ambulance and it was feared he had been badly hurt hurtAfter After the finish both Olirien who rode Captain Kidd and McAuliffe who had the mount on Vagabond King were called into thf stand
