Another Race Falls To Marion Collins Speeds Three-Quarters in 1:11 2-5 at Suffolk Downs-Tin Pan Alley Runs Second BOSTON, Mass., May 12.— Marion Collins, a chestnut daughter of Neddie and Floranada, who races for the partnership of Siravo and Petrucci, ran her score to two straight when she accounted for the fifth and best event on the card at Suffolk Downs today. Racing back to her last and victorious effort at Narragansett Park, Marion Collins led Neil S. McCarthys Tin Pan Alley to the wire with three-quarters of a length to spare. E. C. Eastwoods Sack, who fought it out with Coughlin and Perrys Time OWar for the privilege of establishing the early pace, wound up third, three and a quarter lengths away from the McCarthy representative and a nose in advance of the fading Time OWar. Third choice in the wagering, the Siravo and Petrucci filly paid .40 in the mutuels after annexing her second victory of the year. She was the second winner of the afternoon for apprentice Joe Dattilo. Time OWar outbroke his field, but before he had gone a sixteenth of a mile the favored Sack was lapped right on him. The two fought it out for the lead until the head of the stretch. It was there that Dattilo took the Neddie filly to the outside and called upon her. She responded with an excellent drive, which moved her from third place into the winners circle. Tin Pan Alley also cut loose with a stout effort through the stretch, but the Tick On colts move was made too late. Chalar From End to End Phil Bieber sent out the winner of the third race, a four and a half furlongs test for ,500 two-year-olds, when he saddled D. J. Sullivans Chalar. The Challenger II. — Khara filly led from end to end and won by a length as she negotiated the distance in :534/5. Chalara paid 0.20 in the mutuels to those who supported her as she annexed the second victory of her career. Mrs. H. T. Archibalds Twotimer picked up the place well in advance of the Valdina Farms Valdina Rocket. A first-time starter was returned the winner in the fourth race, a four and a half furlongs affair for maiden two-year-old fillies, when Freddie Hopkins saddled Shadow to account for that event in the silks of Walter P. Chrysler, Jr. The bay daughter of Gino and the Sun Beau mare. Sun Dancer, was up to earn the verdict a length and three-quarters before the Valdina Farms Valdina Marl after being rated off the pace set by Hal Price Headleys Medid. The winner paid .20 and was timed in :55 flat. Mrs. John L. Sullivans Liberty Polly was third a half a length away from the Valdina representative. Alsab has a long way to go before he can be claimed "another Man o War," or even War Admiral, Whirlaway, Gallant Fox, Hindoo, Colin or Domino. Some of those named lost only one race as a three-year-old. Quite true, many of them did not start until May or June, but as long as owner Sabath saw fit to send his horse out in the early winter months, then the horse must suffer on his record when compared with those named above. He has many races to go, and directly ahead are the Withers and Belmont Stakes. Man o War won both of these after taking the Preakness, and if Alsab should win them both, he will be well on his way to the three-year-old championship. But Man o War went on to win the Dwyer, Travers, Lawrence Realization, Jockey Club Stakes, Potomac Handicap and then, of course, the Kenilworth Park Gold Cup. If Alsab should duplicate the records of either horse, it will be time enough to figure his standing as a three-year-old and make comparisons with great members of that division in former years.
