THE EVENING WORLD, MONDAY, AUGUST 29, 1921. ~~ 000 Hopeful Stakes Will Be the Final Day Morvich, Unbeaten in Eight Races, Is Outstanding Fa- vorite in This Classic. By Vincent Treanor. SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y., Aug. 29.—The race meeting here is coming to an end. Only three days of the sport remain before the wind-up on Wednesday, with the running of the $30,000 Hopeful, the rich two-year- old stake, and the Saratoga Cup, a test {or the handicap horses over the mile and six furlongs route. "These two events are about all that is keeping the big stables here. Many have already shipped to other parts, some to New York and others to Kentucky. The Rancocas string has gone to Belmont, only one or two romaining to fill late engagements. dack Joyner's horses are on their way home and Jimmy Fitzsimmons and his Quincy Stable racers left late | last week. The Western owners and trainers have gone back after a, suc- cessful invasion of the Kast. Trainer| Milan and his charges, including the filly champion Miss Joy, are on their way to their Biue Grass home with- out a meeting with Morvich, the star of the juvenile division. Getaway Day will be one of the most important of the mecting from 4 Tacing standpoint because of the Hopeful and the Cup event. The for- mer is the forerunner of the Futurity and comes close to deciding the two- year-old championship. Morvich, un- beaten in eight sta is the out-| standing favorite for the Hopeful. Nothing shown so far has a chance | of beating him. He is ready for the race now, and only on Saturday worked betwéen races five furlongs in a minute flat, doing the half in 47 seconds. He has beaten everything he has met with surprising ease and there is nothing among the big stake cligibles to give him an argument un- “Jess the Whitney establishment has been keeping one up its sleeve. There is a Peter Pan—Folderol colt, as yet| publicly untried, in the barn, which may be a wonder. The Cup event looks like a sure thing for the old horse Exterminator. He won the race last year and the season before, and his race in Satur- day's Merchants and Citizens’ Han- dicap indicates that he is fit and/ ready to make it three straight. ‘The meeting so far has been re- markably successtul. Good ized crowds have attended the races anu the weather couldn't have been more favorable if it had been spec‘ally ar-| ranged. It has been delightfully cool, | Feature of *s Card at Spa has been the toughest in years and many who started the meeting with fat bankrolls have either vamoosed or aro detained here in “the hotel em” ‘No records were broken dur- ing the month and outside of the re- ‘able performances of Morvich and Miss Joy little has pened de- serving special mention in the sporta Hall of Fame. ‘The defeat of Sweepment in the Sar- atoga Steeplechaso was a shock to trainer Maxey Hirsch and his owner, Mrs. George W. Loft; if ever a horae deserved to win it was Sweepment, He had set the pace all the way, shouldering top weight of 187 pounds, only to be beaten when on the fiat, halfway to the wire, by Robert Ol- iver, The latter has been running as a cheap selling plater in the clases here, yet he came out on Saturday and won the $9,100 event, the richest of the meeting for cross country horses, Miss Joy won a good race in the | Spinaway when she beat Calamity | Tane, She broke about four lengtis | behind the latter, ran up on the out- | side and to the front of her with ap- parent ease, but she had to be ridden out to the last ounce to win. Some of | the experts now say that any good, two-year-old will beat her at six fur- jongs. | F. R. Bradley has chipped his horses back to Kentucky without having won a single race. He might just as well | have saved the expense of sending them on from the West. Mr. Brailey | was disappointed over the failure of Bit of White, bis three-year-old filly to wit a race, She started here th times and was beaten in vera] of the Bradley tw THE FUSSY FOURSOME ~~ - “ADVICE TO THE WRETCHED” ‘0, (The New York I WOMEN’S NATIONAL ace mm) LONG DISTANCE Copyright, 1921, by i ‘The Press Publishing ening World) GREATEST NIBLICK PRACTICE.
