Fast Cashs Jersey Invasion Successful Downs Sam Brook, Odds-On Right Bit to Remain Unbeaten In Three Outings to Date GARDEN STATE PARK, Camden, N. J., May 7. — An exciting ding-dong battle was staged over a muddy five furlongs in the South Amboy Purse here this afternoon, in which M. F. Drinkhouses Fast Cash, an overnight invader from New York, upset pre-race calculations to draw clear by a length and a half in the final stages. H. Larkins Sam Brook gained second portion in a blanket finish that found the seven-to-ten favorite, Mrs. S. Lewins Right Bit, a nose behind and just another nostril in front of Rusty Lyn Stables Pegeen. Fast Cash, a daughter of Quick Reward and Emma Dear, was the third choice among the seven juveniles competing and she returned a pleasing 7.60. Despite the muddy condition of the track, runners found a good bottom, and time for this event was a comparatively swift 1:00*5. Moving Up in Class The victress held her record intact with the South Amboy triumph, making it three in a row. Both of her former tallies at Jamaica were over claiming company, however, while all of her rivals today, except Pegeen, are eying stakes at this course. Right Bit, who may not have been at his best over the muddy strip, finished second ; to Brookf ield Farms I Appeal in the Bowie Kindergarten Stakes and is a leading prospect for the William Penn Stakes here on May 23. The 17,113 persons attending this cloudy afternoon were treated to another thrilling contest in the mile and a furlong Newark Purse, but with more acceptable results to the majority. W. E. Browns Bank Coal won the event under Jimmy Stout by six lengths, but it had appeared that W. W. Stones Sandtop was destined for the victory until the final bend where he bolted sharply to the outside fence, wheeled at the last moment under the expert handling of Herb Lindberg to keep from hitting the rail, and pulled up entering the mile and a quarter chute. Bank Coal, coupled as an entry with Joe Cavegnanos Fighting Fleet, paid .80, .60 and .40 acrros the board. Fighting Fleet narrowly gained second by a neck over F. Eugene Dixons Dinewisely and Harborvale Stables Alladier finished fourth.
