Deeside Likely Choice ■ In Ascot Park Offering Faces Go Jeep Go Again in About Four arfd Half Furlongs Event * By W. A. CRUSE 1 Staff Correspondent 1 ASCOT PARK, Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, j June 19. — The popular Ascot Course, which j is about four and one-half furlongs, is the ] setting for tomorrows seventh and feature attraction. There are six three-year-olds or older horses which have accepted the allowance conditions to try for a part of the ,000 purse and Slowey and Petricks Deeside should be in line for strong consideration. The Coldstream gelding finished second to E. F. Lovelaces Roaming Oscar in the Chagrin Falls last Friday and with jockey Louis Rivera was just a length back of the winner which was ridden by Howard Craig. That too was at the about four and one-half furlongs and the time over a fast strip was a commendable :53, flat. Deesides victory early in the season was while competing in excellent allowance company at Cran-wood and he eked out a nose verdict over the A. and H. Stables Grace Morse. That was at five furlongs and he took the lead before going a sixteenth of a mile and held on under the strongest sort of handling. Go Jeep Go, who has been named to r compete again tomorrow, finished a neck e behind Deeside in the Chagrin. The good looking War Jeep gelding races in the in- f terest of E. Burwell and last years records i show that in 11 starts he won three sprint t affairs. He was victorious in his first out- c ing this season at Beulah Park and was s a half length the best of Irish Wit in a ,000 claiming event, at six furlongs. In / his debut here, he took the top on such as | Second Sight and Roaming Oscar, but i wound up third to be beaten a length for j it all. It is quite possible that he will be the one to beat. c The remaining four include Grasselon, n Jeanne H., Embers and Second Sight. i Jeanne H., carries the colors of L. B. Lamb, and flashed them to victory here last Tuesday in a similar about four and one- I half furlongs amid a band of ,000 platers. She was a good length in front of Second Sight and was clocked in :53%, to show a 1 vast improvement over her efforts earlier D this season. ■ Racing secretary B. H. Held has two dis- n tance affairs carded. The second race, " second half of the Daily Double, is at one * and one-sixteenth miles for four-year-olds and older which run with a ,000 tag at- ti tached. There are 13 in all ready to go si postward and it is difficult to determine h which should be in line for the support. tl The eighth and nightcap Is the other dis- * ti si h tl * tance race and again is at a mile and one-sixteenth. Also for four-year-olds and older horses, a few of the seven which accepted the issue have a bit more class or value while in for ,250 or ,000.
