Iron Shot Hard Luck Horse STANTON, Del., June 29. Miss Ella Wideners jumper. Iron Shot, seems to have taken the title for the hard luck horse of the meeting. As favorite in the Gorgetown Steeplechase Handicap, he suffered a slight bleeding due to a nasal ailment, and finished last. Yesterday he was made choice in the Indian River and stumbled and lost his rider at the fourth fence. Both of these races were won by M. A. Cushmans Rouge Dragon, moving him to the top of the steeplechase brigade.
