Showing impiove-ment over his previous excellent winning effort, Jesse Spencers Neighbor was victorious in the Arcade Purse, sixth and best race on a program offered under sunny skies and over a fast track at Latonia this afternoon.

Miss Bonnie was the trailer, a half length back of Three Bangs. WILLIAMS PILOT. Running the distance in 1:42, Neighbor was guided by Sammy Williams and was the second choice to the strongly-supported Bustle. Miss Bonnie led the field from the gate with the winner in second place and they raced as a team to the upper turn, where Williams drove Neighbor to the front. Miss Bonnie, however, was not ready to give up and she held on to the stretch where Rush-away came with a determined charge. Bustle was in closest pursuit, while Miss Bonnie and Neighbor battled for command, and Charlton sent Bustle onward during the final furlong, but she was unable to catch Neighbor, which was kept under strong pressure to the last stages. Bustle wore Rushaway down to be drawing away from him at the end. Al au Feu trailed to the final eighth, where he moved forward on the outside to catch the tiring Three Bangs and Miss Bonnie.
