HE STARTS had a lot to do with racing at Jamaica yesterday. Not that they were bad, but they de- cided at least three of the events. For instance. Wyoming’s “bust” at the bur- rier through C. Turner's alertness enabied him to go into ap Immediate on Sammy Kelly with # badly swollen left eye. He suid he was hit by 4 stone or @ plot of dirt just at about the far turn, But Teddy didn't at- tribute the defeat of Sammy Kelly to this alone, He said Headman, which bothered him the post, had an attack of the “stops” and stopped right in front of him, nearly tossing him off his mount. When Rice over- came all his trouble, he rushed Sam- my up from third from last to a con- tending position and was coming like the wind in the final sixteenth. A lit- (le further to go, and Sammy would have won, The Stoneham colt evi- jently had a lot of friends judging by the rooting he got, all of which lead which had the rest of the field diasy the far turn Orderly, too, the favorite in the fifth, was away in hie stride with. a two-length advan- tage which he held practically all the way, Alr Man, a hot tip, chased him all the way and nearing the stretch keemed about to pass him, but the early chasing left him with not quite enough run In the last race Flying | Orb was the one to get away in front | and he stayed there al) the way with | Nttle or no contention. Ip the other races a bad break, early dificulties with Sammy Kelly and tight quarters right after the bar- rivr went up gave Manoeuvre little, chance to run his race, All told, those | who won the day yesterday had “rac- | ing luck” to thank.

It was a tough rave to lose. Crystal Ford was away badly in the Garden City selling stakes, but he made up a lot of ground to be second. He didn't seem to settle into his racing business until the far turn was reached. From there home his closing rush was such that the Wyoming ‘bookers were | beginning to wish they could move the {nate stand next to the Wilson horse at about the sixteenth pole. Sammy Kelly with an eleven ringed panama hat (the best therp is, say ex- perts) and a trick suit, which has anything we ever saw beat, was in and out the paddock all afternoon. Its | no mean honor to have a horse named after you made favorite in a maiden race, Sam would have been happier if the colt had won, but he was con- soled by the fact that though beaten he showed a powerful race. No more popular was the victory of R, T. Wilson's Wyoming. The horse, of course, ran a great race, leading, as he did, ail’ the way. He was chased from the head of the stretch, and long afterward, when Clarence Turner brought him back to the stewards stand, a man away up In back of the grand stand was still rooting. The three years Clarence ‘Turner spent “on the ground” did not affect his skill as a race rider, apparently, ‘There were few better at the time he was set down ahd there are few better now. His ride on Wyoming was one of the thousand dollar kind, and his making @ sprinter out of a route traveller like Sunnyland was almost magical, Away well and on the rail where he likes to run, Orderly will take some caiching among his own company. ————— Man o’ War Wins Rich Preakness In Easy Fashion BALTIMORE, Md, May 19.—Man o'War, first—the fleld nowhere, This was written years ago of a greater horse than the son of Fair Play—Ma- hubah may prove to be, but that's how he won The Preakness of $30,000 before the biggest crowd that ever passed through the gates of the Pim- lico track.
