Weather condi- a a tions were ideal for the sport and the track ■ was at its best. The nearest approach to a j feature was the fifth, a dash of six and a half furlongs. This brought together some noted half mile performers. Major G. L. Stryker furnished the winner in Tewsenelda, a four-year-old daughter of Trojan and Dor- f othy Gilpin, ridden by the veteran A. Finley. * The Doctor, the odds-on favorite, raced into second place, and Ryland H. News Pals i Meadow was third. The Stryker filly went to the front at the rise of the barrier and saved ground where- r ever possible. Finley had her under re- « straint until reaching the stretch, where i The Doctor made his move. The favorite « moved up momentarily, and it was then Tewsenelda was freed from restraint. She quickly moved up again and was running fast for the remainder of the distance. The Doctor, after following the winner closest from the start, made his move in the final quarter, loomed up threateningly on the final : turn, but was unable to improve his position thereafter. Pals Meadow raced at an even ! pace all the way but was far back, though * saving third by a big margin from Trau- . magne.
