Wrackon Proves Best in Hurdle Race-Finance Looms Up as Probable Good One — Attendance Remains Good. 1 NEW YORK, N. Y., July 2.— Bert Squires Carisbrooke, a three-year-old daughter of Carlaris and Tommywaac, starting for the first time this year, halted the winning streak of the consistent filly, Laurel Miss, that races for Mrs. Kathleen Jesberger, at Aqueduct today. In fact, Laurel Miss could only finish third when Mrs. Ruth Ash-brookes R. Pinchot also led the Master Charlie filly over the line. This was only a six furlongs dash for platers of rather ordinary quality, but it held the feature position of the program and attracted more attention than any race on the card. Another exceedingly hot day was made bearable at the spacious course by the breezes that blew in from Rockaway and another large crowd was in attendance. Nine raced in this dash that went to Carisbrooke and almost from the break it was strictly between the Carlaris filly and Laurel Miss. They quickly went into the lead and with Carisbrooke showing the way Mrs. Jesbergers filly was racing closely after her. Litzenberger had the inside position with the winner and he was content to hold a lead without asking his mount for her best. This pace saw Rainey driving Laurel Miss when the stretch was reached, but she could not gain on Carisbrooke and the effort took so much out of her that in the final furlong R. Pinchot ran over her to take second place easily. The winning margin of Carisbrooke was two lengths and R. Pinchot had beaten Laurel Miss four lengths. Another three lengths back came Transen. The race run by R. Pinchot was an im-I pressive one and with better fortune at the break he would have at least have been closer to the winner. Away slowly from an outside position he closed considerable ground and was racing strongly at the end. Whitney Stones Wrackon was a comparatively easy winner of the Filon DOr selling hurdle race over the mile and a half route. S. A. Warner Baltazzis White Light-i ning took second place and the Brandywine Stables Play Lad was third. K. G., a starter in the small field, was ridden by n amateur. He had H. Lawrence in the saddle and, showing an excellent turn of speed, went out to show the way. Mr. Law-! rence hustled him right along and held to the command for the first mile. He waa jumping well as far as he went, but at the end of the mile there was a closing up-jback of him and he met with some interference at the top of the field when almost crowded into the hedge. This probably cost him a part of the purse. Wrackon was rated along by Dawson well within strik-i ing distance and as K. G. tired he made his move. White Lightning in the mean-l time had met with some interference when Collins was blocked as he attempted to go through on the inside. After that disappointment Collins took him to the outside at a considerable loss of ground, and he moved rapidly into the contention. As K. G. dropped back Wrackon and White Light-j ning drew out, and they swung into the front field well lapped. White Lightning fought along gamely to the last hurdle, but Wrackon was too good for him and he drew away to be win-I ner by four lengths. White Lightning had saved the place by half a dozen lengths and Play Lad, under a vigorous drive, was along to beat the tired K. G. for third. Big Play quit after showing a flash of early speed and Reason Why, the only other starter, was badly outrun all the way.
