• -4 ZenasZepherFinds Going to Her Liking Kelley Miss Never Headed In Suffolk Sprint, Leading Inlet Miss Home by Length By FRED GALIANI Staff Correspondent SUFFOLK DOWNS, East Boston, Mass., May 22. — From start to finish of the featured Bear Hill Purse here today it was Mrs. J. Kelleys Zenas Zepher, the Brook-field filly leading Mrs. B. F. Listers Inlet Miss, her constant pursuer, over the wire by a length. It was one and a half lengths more to W. L. Huntley Jr.s Flight Patrol at the end of the mile and 70 yards. Only six started in the Bear Hill, with the favored Cellini fifth, beating only Palaje. Joe Spinale was on the winning Zenas Zepher and they completed their trip in 1:47% on a track that was heavy from recent rains. The day was better than the track with a bright sun warming the crowd of 9,883 fans who had more than measured success with four favorites reporting through the feature. Zenas Zepher was well supported and paid .80. His Favorite Distance The event was for three-year-olds who had not won two races but it looks like Zenas Zephers best distance is this one, one mile and 70 yards, for the only previous score to her record was here last month, although she had been in the money in recent races. It was a case of hound and hare in the race as Zensa Zepher went to the front immediately and it was up to the rest of the field to catch her. Inlet Miss, another filly, took up the chase and remained in the runner-up slot all the way. No other horse ever came close to the first two. " Spinale, roused his mount above the eighth pole, where Inlet Miss bid seemed to contain a little authority, and hitting his mount five times, they rolled on under the wire. Flight Patrol moved up into third i postion on the backstretch and was not | able to get any closer,, even though Bernie [ Hansman took him well to the inside in the stretch run. Bon Victoire trailed the field most of the way and only ran a trifle at the end to be fourth.
