He, too, was @ confidently played favorite. In the last event, Leather- face, if he wasn't actually favorite, should have been. He led practically all the way, to win with little con- tention. The day's doings, all tod, were profitable to the players, Every once in a while there is a queer-looking race run at the race tracks. Yesterday there was one. was that won by Sea Mint. No queer- ness was attached to him, but Torch- bearer’s showing was entirely at varl- ance with anything he has shown ina long time. Naturally a quick beginner, he usually is off in front to do or die there, depending on the distance he ig travelling. On everything he has shown this season, one looked for him to be in front at some stage of the mile journey. He wasn't, how- ever, at any part of the race. Instead he was rushed behind Sea Mint after the latter got off winging, and then was taken back. Sande made a sec- ond and a third run with him, but got nowhere, He saved gtound at the head of the stretch, but profited Uttle by this plain advantage. When Sande tried to send him along on the rail he simply wouldn't be sent. The race was as different from Torch- bearer’s last showing as day ‘e from night. It is just possible that Sande had instructions to “place” the horse and reserve his well known speed for the stretch. If so, the horse must have tired under restraint. He fin- ished outside the money in a field of | five, a disgraceful exhibition, to say ; the least. Billy Hogan is one trainer who doesn't need a big string of horses with which to win races, Hogan can take hold of a single horse, fit and train him, and win at the ask- ing. He did this with Lion d'Or, and then sold him for $20,000. He accomplished the same with another one-horse stable yesterday, when he sent Faunus to the post in the open- two-year-old race, “I'll about win this race,” Hogan’ told every- body. He didn’t put any tfs, ands or buts In the information, Faunus won and like a good one. After being away from the post badly, the co't) came from behind and was up in time to nip Polly Ann on the post. Hogan is to sail for Ireland on July 16, and we will miss him, his pipe and his Irish amile. He is going over to attend the Dublin Horse Show and has been commissioned to buy some horses at the sale there. Hogan knows horses and may be depended on to bring back something worth while. Although Gladiator ontclassed the company ho met in the Africander Handicap, there wasn't any wild scramble to bagk him. Instead all the play centred on Fair Gain, prob- ably beenuse of his recent defeat of Dinna Care. ihe owner of Gladiator, a big bettor when he thinks he has a chance, hesitated a tong while before wagering on the colt. He thought the price against him too short. When it came to racing, Gladiator went to the front easily and was never in trouble. Ernie Sietas was supremriy confi- dent of winning with ‘ls mare. into shape for forthcoming pouts. which his manager js arranging to be! fought in this city under the now Walker law.
