By Vincent Treanor. ACK GOLDSBOROUGH put aa- J other one over on the unsus- pecting racing public yesterday at Yonkers in Recount, who just gal- loped away from the 3 to 6 favorite, Pickwick, in the Gramatan Handicap. And thereafter Jack was around the club house wearing a regular steepie- chase smile. Shuttinger rode Recount and did it to perfection, incidentally putting it over on young Fator, who rode the favorite, Recount is a natural mud- der and so is Pickwick for that mat- ter, but the former is more partial to the route over which they ran thav Pickwick is. After getting a “bust” at the barrier, Shuttinger led around the first turn, only to relinquish the lead im the run to the back stretch. Shuttinger lay right with Pickwwk until nearing the stretch turn, and when he let Recount down it was no contest. Fator fought it out on Pick- wick, but Clancy's gélding had noth- ing. He pulled up in very bad shape and may be on the shelf for some time. Osgood “repeated” like a useful sort of @ selling plater in the Arrow Stakes.

Crys- tal Ford, one of the cleverest three- year-olds racing just now, is a son of Clifford and Glimmergiass and a Hurricana product. So is Yurucari, another good three-year-old. Next year Mr. Sanford will not race many of the two-year-old products of Hur- ricanna. He will retain only a few of the better bred of his fillies, which, after they have been trained and raced by himself, will be sent back to Hurricana for stud service. Fifteen colts and three fillies will be offered by the master of Hurricana to thi highest bidders at Saratoga, and this consignment will make Hurricana one of the biggest stud contributors to the yearling sales, which will be one of the most attractive features of Saratoga's racing season.

This fed the field by two strokes among the forenoon players. Charlies D. Thom of Shinnecock Hills, N. Y., scored 35, 36—T1, and Cyril Walker of Minneapolis took 34, 39-73, George Sargent of Min- neapolis, playing with Barnes, went out in 36, but developed a pull on the second nine and finished with 74.

Direc tion on foreign courses is more im- portant than American links because the rough and traps are more severe than the average layout in country, A» most English courses are near the sea, winds are always a change- able factor, No matter how often he plays, on courses like Sand- wich, conditions are always different, as these sea winds create sand dunes and other traps the player must ne- wotlate for the first time. The unfortunate who hits off the line lands into trouble that penalizes onsiderably more than American courses, It is this feature of foreign links that Hagen is likely to find most annoying. Gil Nicholls, veteran star, referred to Hagen as one who could make better shots out of trouble than most golfers from the best lle on fairways. The national champion has been doing this on courses the average Briton will say are fairly easy com- pared to the best known Scotch and nglish links, . Hagen approuches ‘this argument with the statement that he'll spend about a month testing out the st range foreign courses next season and then he will be prepared to take on Var- don, Braid, Taylor and the rest of the crack English pros. Only one American, Walter J Travis, has ever managed to land a British golf title, Back in 1904, at Sandwich, he came through for the national amateur championship, and his victory so pricked the pride of English critics that they claimed the visiting Yankee slipped through their tournament unnoticed. And to this loud wails were made against the Schenectady putter, which happened to be Travis's favorite put- ting instrument. To guard against any future Yankee triumphs, on their native links, British authorities barred the use of Schenectady putters in tournaments, Boston on Next Saturday the Ocean Country Club at Inwood will stage an inter esting professional exhibition.
