J. MURPHY SPORTSMANS PARK, Cicero. 111.. May 11. — W. W. Morrow, Texas turfman, sent out a surprise winner in the featured Bubbling Over Purse here today in Restraint, a chestnut" filly who had failed in her two prior attempts at this track. Restraint won by five lengths this afternoon, and her margin probably came about due to the fact that the pair closest to her at the end had spent themselves in the early running. They were Roman Senator and Charlies Gem and they finished second and third, respectively. Restraint, ridden by John L. Rotz, paid 1.00 and ran one and one -sixteenth miles in 1;S0%. Charlies Gem was the favorite and had his speed from the start, but he caught a tartar#in Roman Senator, who kept pace with him throughout and refused to give in. Roman Senator, well ridden by Bennie Green, had the advantage of being on the inside of his rival all the way. and while Charlies Gem appeared in front at all call poles, Roman Senator headed him a couple of times in between. The two were still fighting for an advantage when Restraint passed them and they continued their struggle down to the wire, with Roman Senator being a head the best.
