Forrest; bred by Mrs. Silas B. Mason. WENT TO POST-6:21. OFF AT 6:21 EASTERN DAYLIGHT TIME. Start good from stall gate. Won driving; second and third the same. BIG HEAD, never far back while saving ground, secured room on the inside for the drive and, responding to hard urging, drew clear. CHOCK ABLOCK raced with SNOW KISS in the lead from the beginning, disposed of the latter to take a short lead on the final turn, swung slightly wide in the stretch, met the bid of the winner willingly, but was not good enough. ORISKANY raced evenly and forwardly in a good effort. JOES LADDIE finished fast after racing sluggishly early. MISS BUSYBEE lacked early speed, was forced to lose ground on the final turn when making her move and was not prominent SNOW KISS had early speed while taking a short lead, but flattened out. Oriskany claimed by S. J. Brown. Attendance, 18,490; Total Mutuel Pool 09,464.
