UNEXPECTED RESULTS Tannery and My Dandy Meet Defeat at Washington Park Ellice Outsprints Ned 0 and andPrichard Prichard Star Stars and Bars BarsFurnishes Furnishes Big Surprise HOMEWOOD III June C Surprises were the order of the day at Washington Park when the program was decided under the most disagreeable weather and track condi ¬ tions during the meeting Cold rainy weather kept the surprisingly large crowd for such an afternoon under shelter and as they witnessed the sport over a watersoaked track upsets came in rapid fashion with the running of the principal races Two contests of feature magnitude were offered in the Lincoln Highway Handicap one mile and Wacker Drive Purse over seveneighths The latter exclusively for threeyearolds attracted much interest because of the pres ¬ ence in the field of Tannery and Ned O po ¬ tential candidates for the impending renewal of the American Derby In Ellice the star filly in the stable of J N Camden Ned O and Tannery met a tartar and leading them throughout she won decisively as Ned O outstayed Tannery for second place placeStars Stars and Bars racing in his best form scored in the Lincoln Highway Handicap with the Warm Stables The Nut second and My Dandy from the Reichert Bros stable third in the field of six Stars and Bars saddled by Edward Haughton was ridden by W Fronk who had his first mount of the meeting earlier in the afternoon afternoonAT AT HOME iy GOIXG GOIXGEllice Ellice under the guidance of Paul Neal showed her best form in the muddy footing and racing into a long lead held sway to the end For more than threequarters Tannery under brisk pressure kept in close pursuit of the winner but the more sluggish beginner Ned O worked his way up during the run through the stretch and wrested second place from the Pritchard colt when within a short distance of the finish Both Tannery and Ned O came through with game efforts and the ability of Ellice to outsprint them under prevailing conditions did not detract from their prestige in American Derby calculation Still the result occasioned genuine surprise as the crowd backed Tannery almost to the exclusion of the others and his undoing occasioned much disappointment The race marked his first start since the Kentucky Derby and the first for Ned O since the Fairmount Derby Ellices success was her fourth in her last five starts startsThe The victory of Stars and Bars in the Lincoln Highway Handicap was attained through a most impressive effort the four yearold son of Pennant racing from last in the field of six with a great rush in the stretch and leading The Nut by a length at the end of the one mile Two lengths back the heavilyweighted My Dandy just man ¬ aged to outstay Martinique and Blackwood and Ironsides completed the field fieldSent Sent into the lead My Dandy found Mar ¬ tinique a close attendant as he set the early pace but there was promise for his followers when he drew away into a clear lead enter ¬ ing the stretch only to tire badly after enter ¬ ing the final eighth The Nut which also began slowly was first to head the Ileichert racer passing him on the outside at a time when he was bearing out After reaching the front the Warm Stable racer continued in resolute fashion but the fastfinishing vic ¬ tor overhauled him in the final stages stages3IY 3IY DAiNDY TIKES TIKESAfter After swerving out during the early por ¬ tion of the last eighth My Dandy swerved sharply to the inside near the end and with Martinique finished close to the inner rail railDreana Dreana Lee under the colors of L M Severson local owner experienced little dif ¬ ficulty racing to victory over Whisk Arrow Lee Cooper and nine others in the throe quarters race which opened the offering Right at home in the slop she followed close to Lee Cooper as he cut out the early pace and moving into command with a rush after reaching the stretch came away to win by four lengths After being headed Lee Coopers speed slackened and Whisk Arrow disposed of him quickly in the final eighth and Don Tinky all but wore him down for third a head separating them at the close closeGabbo Gabbo a son of Bon Homme furnished a surprise when he easily accounted for the second race in which nine others from among the poorer grade juveniles opposed the C B Continued on twentyfirst page UNEXPECTED RESULTS Continued from first page Irwin representative over five furlongs Kings X was the one to race to second place while Burnam followed and the unplaced included Grcenwald the favorite which was away poorly and Good Friend also well backed and a sufferer at the start Gabbo readily overhauled Kings X after the latter had led to the stretch and drawing away won in a canter as Kings X kept out of danger from Burnam BurnamGreemvald Greemvald and Good Friend rushed into contention on the turn hut their challenges were shortlived and while Greenwald failed to make up any ground in the stretch Good Friend dropped far back backOne One of the big surprises of the afternoon came in the third race Avhen Willing the maiden of the Rosehome Stable added to the showing of locallyowned horses with an easily attained victory This was over the one mile distance and the daughter of Wil dair well suited by the footing decisively defeated such others from among the plater fillies as Easter Look at Lillian and five others othersEaster Easter raced awny into a long lead after reaching the turn but the winner ridden by apprentice Marcum improved her position gradually and reaching the final eighth was right after the leader With a rush she sup ¬ planted Easter within a sixteenth of the fin ¬ ish and drew away thereafter to win by almost four lengths Look at Lillian after beginning slowly worked her way up on the inside and outfinished Bar Sinister for third place The chief offender here was Photos Star which after beginning fast sprawled in the going and soon dropped far back of the leaders leadersFlyer Flyer from S M

superiority the victor splashed his way home eight lengths in the lead of Outer Har ¬ bor while Jean Lafitte was third After threeeighths the winner ridden by Carl Meyer rapidly drew away from Ante
