BEST AUBER, always within easy striking distance, came to the outside to dispose of CARRY THE NEWS when ready entering the stretch and steadily increased his advantage when fully extended. CARRY THE NEWS raced BATFISH into defeat to take command after a half mile, relinquished the lead to the winner at the furlong marker, then continued on gamely to outlast ICARIAN. The latter slipped through along the inner rail to attain closer contention leaving the final turn, but lacked the necessary rally. ELIXIR, far back early, was compelled to take the complete overland route when starting his belated stretch bid. GALDAR tired. BATFISH, much used early, had little left.. EIGHTH RACE 1 1-2 MILES.

SHARP ABBEY, never far removed from the early leaders, slipped through next the inner rail to reach the lead leaving the final turn and retained a clear advantage thereafter when subjected to brisk urging. STEVIES PAL came to the inside to attain the runner-up position at the furlong marker, but was unable to reach the leader when hard hustled through the late stages. STRUTTING HIGH moved up boldly in the middle of the track for the stretch run, btu lacked a convincing rally. DAMASO dominated the early running, was taken back from the pace around the turn, then failed to respond sufficiently when shaken for the final test. MERMAN was outrun. TAR QUEEN tired. CHASED AGAIN was unable to keep up. ROCKY RIDGE retred steadily after flashing early speed. Overweight— DAmaso, 1 pound; Merman, 1; Tar Queen, 3. _ Attendance, 20,092; Total Mutuel Pool, ,855,164.
