STOUT RIDES THREE WINNERS Pilots Early Evening, Quel Jeu and Danger Point. Norris Colorbearer Victorious In. Feature Event Sunnyshore Graduates at Good Odds in Third. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 16. J. D. Norris Danger Point was winner of the Cynosure Handicap at Aqueduct today, giving Jimmy Stout a triple when he won the first with Early Evening and the second best race with Quel Jeu in the previous event. The Danger Point score was. an easy one and accomplished over the mile and a sixteenth route from a group of class "C" performers. Ann ORuley, carrying the silks of the Silver State Stable, took the place with Mrs. Ethel D. Jacobs Jesting, top weight of the field, saving third from Bulwark. Lucky Light held the lead until well into the stretch but he was doing his best and Bulwark was soon finished. Arcaro called on Jesting in the final furlong and for a few strides she threatened, but Ann ORuley was not through and on the- outside Danger Point was only beginning to run. In the final sixteenth the son of Stimulus came through magnificently and his winning margin was Six lengths. QUEL JEU SCORES. Quel Jeu, the moody son of High Time and Question, which races under the silks of the Arden Farms stable, was in a running mood in the six and a half furlongs dash that brought out some nice platers, and he was victorious. William H. Berris Chief Cherokee took second place, and Mrs. Ethel D. Jacobs Microphone took third from Idle Midget. Deflate was first to show from the stalls, but she was almost at once headed by Microphone and as he went to the front Arcaro took a nice hold of his head and rated him next to the inner rail. Deflate was holding second place and Chief Cherokee raced third, with Idle Midget following. Quel Jeu was back of these but Stout was wisely permitting him to settle into stride in his own fashion. Microphone continued to show the way until well into the stretch and until the final furlong post was reached, looked the winner. Then, in that final furlong there was a closing up and as- Chief Cherokee ! began to wear the old stallion down, Quel Jeu was coming along smoothly on the outside. Never faltering, Quel Jeu swept past the .line winner by a length and a half, while Chief . Cherokee had taken second place from the tired Microphone by three lengths.
