ASCENSION'S PU SMT O AIDE EXPLAINS 9 POOR AAG S Little Jockey Has y Has Handled Filly in \ | | : | Clever Style Befo: re and There Was No Good Reason for Pulling Her Out of the' Running at Half-Mile Pole. The riding of Smithson on Ascension at Gravesend yesterday was a sight cal- culated to harrow the souls of those who believe in the purity or racing. Smithson is a small boy who rarely rides anything but Ascension, but the records show that he and the filly get along very well together and he has got quite as much out of her as any one else It cannot be said, therefore, that his extraordinary action In deliberately tak- ing the filly back near the half-mile pole was due to incompetency. it was not due to timidity either, for there was nothing that threatened danger in any way. Why, then, did Smithson take Ascension out of the race in the manner in which he did? There seems to be only one conclusion to reach, The next running of Ascension will be watched with a great deal of in- terest. It was strange that the stewards took no notice of the race. Stewar blessed with such keen sight as to si a foul which no one else was-able to dis- cover ought certainly to see suoh a plainly flagrant plece of riding as Master Smithson put up. Differeat Set of Stewards. ‘ There was a different set of stewards tn the box before this Ascension race came off. They were steeplechase stewards, Did they notice any remark- able improvement in the form of Baron Pepper as compared with his last race, or is {t strictly legitimate, according to the code of rules governing steeple- chasing, for a horse to improve some forty or fifty pounds from one race to another? This Baron Pepper comes from a stable famous for a fondness for cutting good things loose at juicy prices. Noto Baron Pepper, also Captivator in his last race. Still there is not much use kioking at these things in the East. Here, where they tolerate the off-and-on policy in wearing blinkers, in injecting the dope in plates and shoes, almost anything may be expected. They are very lax in these things in the East. Mr, Thomas was, no doubt, very much pleased at the victory of St. Valentine in the first race, because it was Fuller's first mount in the Thomas colors. No doubt Mr. Thomas thought that it was to Fuller alone that the victory was due. Odom would have won on St. Val- entine just as easily as Fuller. Mr. Thomas js aloné in his estimate of Odom, It can be safely stated that he hasn't a gle supporter in the vast army of rac- ws attendants, But Mr. Thomas ts young and impetuous and has much to learn. His judgment 1s not very keen, judg- ing by the way he was scooting through the ring betting a thousand a crack on Highlander yesterday. ‘That Disqualification, The disqualification of Mordella and the placing of Eagle first brought to light a very funny state of affairs down jat John Cavanagh's stand yesterda: A young Japanese came to Mr. Cav- anagh and asked him to collect a bet on § . He had seen Mordella win and left the track,tearing up his badge as he went. When he learned that Eagle had been placed first he found he could poy collect the money without the adge. Mr. Cavanagh noted the complaint. Soon after another Japanese came up and told pretty nearly the same story. Then a third came up, There had been a new drawing of the books and he couldn't locate the bookmi "A fourth and a fifth and a sixth’ came along, and then Mr. Cavanagh's as- sistants began to wonder where the Jap- anese had got the tip on Eagle.
