Top Command Takes Lead In Ohio Presidents Series THISTUEDOWN, North Randall, Ohio, June 17.— The Leslie Jane Stables Top Command took a healthy lead in points over his rivals in the Ohio Presidents Series which had its second running on Wednesday. Coming from far back under an excellent ride by Bill Carstens, the Grand Admiral gelding was along in the final strides to outf inish Albion by a neck in a thrilling contest. Top Command ran the same sort of race in the first race of the series when he downed Cortina by a half length after a tremendous stretch run.
