He defeated, in order, I Cactus Rose, Ridge Mor, Brown Witch and Southland Duke. There was little to the race outside of the winner. Jockey L. Canfield hustled his | mount into an early lead and maintained it I throughout, while Cactus Rose raced in sec- j ond place from start to finish. Cactus Rose gained a little on the flying pacemaker as they turned into the home stretch, but Can- field shook his mount up a bit and he was I never in danger. Cherry Times margin at the finish was a length and a half, while Cactus Rose fin- ished a similar distance in front of Ridge Mor. The other two horses were outrun. Brown Witch kept up with the leaders for a quarter of a mile but then he was through, as was Southland Duke. The winner, which ran the six furlongs in 1:13, paid .80 for . An unusually large weekday crowd was out for the sport, which was decided over a fast track. The weather was hot and sultry and, in spite of the attractive card, the patrons could not muster much enthusiasm. The supporting attraction was the Evergreen Farm Purse at six furlongs, and it saw Mose Goldblatts Occult run his winning streak to six straight here. Taking command before going a sixteenth of a mile, Occult held her rivals at bay for the remainder of the journey, beating Our Sam- my by a length. Lady Pal, which ran third, was closest to the winner most of the trip, tiring in the final eighth to be displaced by Our Sammy for second money. Prince Vic, Ret-tef and Florence Louise, the only other starters, finished far back. Occult was an odds-on favorite and was ridden by D Taylor. W. L. Johnsons Maxine P., ridden by A. Richard, who came here from Chicago for the day, won the opening event, which Continued on twenty-second page. * FOURTH FOR CHERRY TIME Continued from first page. brought together seven maiden two-year-old fillies. Maxine P. opened a comfortable lead on her rivals at the outset, but rounding the turn Precious Betty got to the pacemaker, and it was a ding-dong race between them to the finish. At the eighth post, Precious Betty took a lead on the Johnson filly, but the latter came again and won by a head. Catch Fly was third to complete the five and a half furlongs. The winner paid 8 for . The favorite was First Pigeon, which had no excuse. The second race, run over a mile and seventy yards, fell to H. Loudens Nightingale, with Lady Macaw second and Migosh third. Nightingale, the favorite, was restrained several lengths back of the pace for three-quarters and then went to the front, winning by a length in a mild drive. Lady Macaw, which did most of her early running far back, moved up when Nightingale made her move and outfinished Migosh for second place money. The others in the field were well beaten. Uma set the pace, with Little Connelly in closest pursuit, during the early furlongs, but both were through when they reached the stretch. In the third race, a dash of five and a half furlongs, for two-year-olds, Virginella, from the stable of Mrs. Bessie Franzheim. made every post a winning one. Jockey G. Fowler had her away fast and she never was seriously threatened. Turning into the straightaway, Virginella was three lengths to the good and she simply cantered, passing the judges a length and a half in front of Pokeaway, her nearest rival. Third money went to Athanette, which came from behind and just got up in time to beat Our Bettie by a nose. Tripp Up, from which more contention was expected, had no excuses. F. F. Brants consistent Oderic scored his third consecutive victory and his fourth of the meeting in accounting for the fourth race on the program. Oderic left little doubt of his superiority, for he won in a common canter by four lengths, with Dusky Dame second. Dorothy Dale failed to leave the starting gate with the others, but closed a big gap to get the short end of the purse.
