How, if you are @ betting lady or gentleman, are you going to beat these here races? We dunno, Such, however, is what happened out at Mr. Belmont’s race track yes- terday afternodn, Jack Stuart, owned by Theodore Cook and trained by W. Martin, is the horse about which we are writing. He came into the dock fit and ready to run one of his good races and, as is customary, was sent out on the track for a pre- iminary warm-up, It was during this op down past the grandstand that @ was nearly ruined. He pulled @ plate on his off fore foot and cut ‘The seriousness of his injury wasn't apparent until he was saddied for the race and was oriered to take his plave in the parade to the post. As he started to walk the horse limped painfully. He put the injured foot @own gingerly. Paddock Judge Mc- Laughlin noticed this and on the trainer's explanation ordered the horse before the stewards for in- spection. Meanwhile the crowd in the paddock, many of whom had bet on Jack Stuart, made a wild rush from the inclosure to hedge or take their wagers off entirely, The crowd in the grandstand didn’t know what had happened and viewed unusual spectacle of Jack Stuart's inspection, in wonder, Finally the horse limped back to the paddock. “They wouldn't let him start,” some remark ed, ‘He's been withdrawn,” others sald “How will it affect the betting?” still others inquired, and mild argu- menta grew out of the question of or not he was in the start- ve ‘when found to be lame? the or 1 ff bets on the if not, would the players, bet on the horse, pay under ciroumstances?
