Annikin First Victor for Stable in Preliminary to Feature — Glenbroom Makes Good in Opening Race. BOSTON, Mass., June 20.— Acting like his name in the early running, but then turning on the speed in the final quarter, J. W. Y. Martins Slow Motion won the Westminster Purse, sixth and feature race of the day, before more than 13,000 enthusiasts at Suffolk Downs today. Second choice in the wager-1 ing because of his previous defeat by Leo J. Marks Many Stings, which was in the six furlongs dash again today, Slow Motion won handily, although the margin of the four-year-old son of Canter was a slight one over E. Millers Unassisted, with Many Stings third, but well out of it. The triumph of Slow Motion made it two wins in a row for the Martin stable, since trainer F. A. Bonsai, Jr., had saddled Annikin in the fifth race. Until the field reached the turn for home, however, it did not look if Slow Motion would be the winner, for Unassisted and Paul Andolinos Gay Balko went out to set the pace. Slow Motion was running in third place. Moreover, Gay Balko then opened up on Unassisted and there was telling what might happen. At the head of the stretch Gay Balko was ready to quit, with Unassisted coming through on the rail, while Slow Motion really was in stride. Unassisted then drew ahead with Siow Motion gaining slowly. They ran together to the seventy yard mark and then Slow Motion just drew ahead slightly to win 1:13%, not bad time at all for the dead track. Many Stings charged past Gay Balko take third. -
