Seaf lash Scores Another Easy Victory at Pimlico Draws Out to Ten-Length Tally* Over Jazerant in Allowance Test PIMLICO, Baltimore, Md., May 18.— Alvin Untermyers Seaflash, who sizzled to a track record in his recent debut, chalked up another easy victory in accounting for todays featured Lochinvar Purse by 10 lengths over Danny Sheas Jazerant. Another five lengths behind came Vic Posners Melvin R. % Cloudy and cool weather preceded the Preakness day festivities, with a resultant small crowd of 8,586. Form held-up well during the afternoon, with Seaflash the shortest-priced winner on the card at .80. His time of 1:06% was only two-fifths of a second slower than his recent record-equalling spin. He was again handled by Charley Givens. Seaflash displayed high speed from tha barrier -in the Lochinvar, but it was nox until rounding the eblow that he -drew clear of Jazerant, a speedy half-brother of Turbine, who was making his initial start. From midway of the turn to the finish it was merely of how great Seaflashs winning margin would be, with Givens more than willing to settle for a 10-length spread. Jazerant, even in defeat, was impressive, for he was in hand in the late stretch when it was apparent that he was no match for the winner. The others in the field were clearly outclassed by the top pair and they were always far back. Bobby Mitchell, who will be forced to spend the remainder of the meeting on the ground due to a suspension by the stewards, bid farewell with a saddle double astride R. N. Boerners Saints Rest and Alan T. Clarkes Ala Mowlee.
