Melos Outstrips Field
Leads Thoroughbreds Home at the Jockey Club
Black and Red Shows the Way
in the Hurdles
Taking the lead near the last hurdle
the Black and White ensign of the
Nibbs stables worn by Jockey Wright,
came forth victorious in one of the most
gruelling steeplechases ever witnessed on
the Pinehurst turf. The famous geld
ing was pitted against the best to be
found in this circuit the redoubtable
Little Horn, ridden by Archibald, Al
gardi, who can lay claim to the cham
pionship of the track, with Taylor up,
and the renowned His Nibbs, ridden by
Wright. In view of his recent success,
Algardi was greatly handicapped in
weight, Taylor tipping the scales at 148,
against G. Wright 135, Wright 130 and
Archibald 134.
Taylor sent Algardi to the froat at the
'start and for the first quarter of a mile
had hard work disposing of Little Horn.
Melos had been away slowly in the mean
time and was among the last to round the
first turn, but once in the back stretch he
began to show his form 'and rapidly over
hauled the leader. The rest of the race
was a thrilling spectacle. Jockey Wright,
holding the hard pulling Melos back for
the last spurt gave the big chestnut his
head with one-quarter to go and he leap
ed forward. Algardi held on gamely, but
the long course and heavy weight pre
vented him from keeping up with the
challenger and Melos cleared the tape a
winner a good margin. Archibald rode
a pretty race, but the best he could do
was third place, beating out His Nibbs by
several lengths.
It was Advertiser's Day at the Jockey
Club and some great events had been
framed up for their benefit. It was one
of the j oiliest crowds that had assembled
at the Track this season and also one of
the largest. They were happy, when Miss
Frances Thomas won the Ladies' Trot
ting race under saddle and more so when
"Tub" beat "Butter" in the Novelty
Flat race, but the Eeichstag riots were in
comparable to the uproar when Molly 0.
crossed the line a winner by a hair from
Uncle Sam in the seven furlong flat
event.
Four horses went to post in this race,
among them being Rosewater, Wm.
Stock's sorrel mare, ridden by Atwell,
George Roach, with Carter up. Wright
started the race in his usual fashion by
clinching the rail position, with Lasses,
up on Uncle Sam, right at his heels.
Both riders kept their horses under slight
restraint for the first three quarters when
Lasses decided to ride. The head of the
home stretch found both horses going the
limit, with Molly 0. a little to the good.
Ten yards from the finish it looked like
a dead heat, but Wright managed to draw
another spurt from the mare and she
crossed the line a winner.
It was a great day for Jockey Wright
on the track, for the riding of this young
chap stood out as the most brilliant part
of the program. On Mildred Euretta
Wright had things his own way, for he
rushed to the front at the start and stay
ed there all the way round. There was
an exciting battle for second place, Call
up on Joe Miller capturing the place by
a nose from Lydonia ridden by Lasses.
And now comes Joe Hamilton, the
Wickart's brown beauty and a perfect
running machine, seeking new laurels and
large purses. Pitted against Hyde's
Prince Pepper, Mittie Bedworth, owned
,'by V. Eden, and H. Eden's Gentry Dic
tator, in the Class A. trot or paee, he pro
ceeded to win the event in straight heats.
He certainly set out about it in the right
way. Making a scramble for the pole in
the first heat he passed the leaders at
the half mile mark and edged over the
finishing line a good winner. The second
heat was not without its thrills. Nothing
daunted, the bunch took up the chase
when Joe leaped out in front, but the
steady-working brown gelding was not
to be denied and he again flashed over
the line a victor.
The formidable brown again took the
pole in the third and final heat and set
out with a rush and roar and tore into
the finish as he began.
