pollo sixth, the rest tailed off. Passing
the stand Bruce and Harry Gilmore were head and head, a length in front of
Babcock third, Runnymede fourth, Bengal fifth, Apollo sixth, the rest out
of the race. No change on the turn, but at the quarter Harry Gilmore was a
half length in front of Bruce second, a length ahead of Runnymede third.
Before reaching the half Bruce, having shot his bolt, retired, Babcock
taking second place, Runnymede third, Bengal fourth, Apollo fifth. The
five took closer order on the turn, and entering the stretch Harry Gilmore
was a half length in front of Runnymede second, Babcock and Apollo lapped,
Bengal close up. Half way down it looked to be Runnymede's race, he
running easy with his mouth wide open, and the shout went up that he would
win, but inside the furlong pole he quit, and Apollo coming with a wet
sail after a driving race won by a length, Runnymede second, two lengths
ahead of Bengal third, followed by Harry Gilmore, Monogram, Babcock,
Wendover, Mistral, Wallensee, Pat Malloy colt, Highflyer, Newsboy, Bruce
and Lost Cause in the order named. First half 51-1/2, first mile 1:46-1/4,
mile from stand to stand 1:48-3/4, race 2:40-1/4.
