Princess Dey Returns to Top Form in Chalkstone Purse NARR AGANSETT PARK, Pawtucket, R. I., June 10. — After three days of damp and cold weather, the climate changed to a warm sunny afternoon. The sun and Miami tinge of nature must have been right for Pat Catalanos Princess Dev who stormed down on the outside to win the featured Chalkstone Purse here today. The last time the filly had won was at Gulfstream Park in Florida. It was a tight finish all the way, Princess Dev heading out M. and I. Pricketts Running Creek, while Palatine Stables Palatine Ret was only a nose back for third money. Lightly regarded by the crowd of 7,972 who turned out on a golden afternoon, Princess Dev returned 6.80 after covering the six panels over the fast track in 1:12%. Darrell Madden hustled the winning daugh-ter-of Brown King home in his usual workmanlike fashion.
