Skeezix Shows Lots of Form and Wins With Grace and Ease in Ak-Sar-Ben Feature Eveni
- ffi-----.-------T"
Drumhiller’s $10,000 Beauty
Will Prove Strong Contender
in King's Derby on Saturday
Favorites S-iTer Setbacks and Only Two Heavily Backed
Horses Are Winners Over Heavy Track.—Mr. Kruter
Closes Fast on Stretch and Pays $46 Straight,
Longest Price of Afternoon.
By RALPH WAGNER.
HAT good horse Skeezix, by Sweep out of Mar
garet T., ridden by Jockey A. Yerrat, won the
fifth and feature race of the second day’s pro
gram of the Ak-Sar-Ben meet yesterday when
he showed the way home to a field of five start
ers over the mile and 70-yard route.
This Drumhiller entry who was nominated
for the recent Kentucky derby, but who was
scratched when he failed to show up well in his
workouts, romped in ahead of Reap and Dorius,
finishing three lengths to the good and covering
the distance in 1:52 over a track made heavy by
the recent rains.
Glenwell, the 6-year-old son of Dick Finnell, broke first
and under a rousing ride from E. Petzoldt, who had already
piloted two winners, started out as though he wanted to get
down to the pay-off station quickly and then back to his
oat supper, which he no doubt figured was waiting for him.
Reap Takes I^ead.
out the race was still young when
Reap, the C. B. Irwin 3 year-old.
with F. Cantrill in the coop, got to
the front. By this time Skeezix had
forged into second position, coming
into the place berth from a bad start.
However, at the quarter pole Jockey
Yerrat started his drive and from this
time on Skeezix had things practically
his own way.
Entering the stretch, Skeezix had
a three-length lead which he held un
til he crossed the imaginary line.
Reap managed to set the pace early
in the race, but when this Drumhiller
horse started spreading his legs there
was nothing to It but Skeezix. The
Irwin mudder was easily the second
best in the race, finishing a good
seven lengths ahead of Dorius. who
raced in show position from the far
turn.
Skeeslx certainly proved to the
boys that he will bear watching. He
likes any kind of a footing and oh
my, how he can run. He only toted
a 102 pounds and the next time out
will have a little more weight to
carry, but at that, the son of Sweep
shakes a mean quartet of hoofs and
should give any of them out there a
good run for their oats.
G. Drumhiller. who saddled Skee
six. rcaed hi* sprinter a couple of
times down in Kentucky following the
big Kentucky Derby and he copped
both starts. After the Kentucky
meeting the Drumhiller stable was
shipped to Omaha and from here will
go to Voncouver. B. C., where his
bang-tails will attempt to clean up
soms more money. Skeezix cost his
owner $10,000.
Skeesiz was well liked yesterday.
He went to the post a heavy favorite
with the paddock. When he romped
home the holder of $2 tickets on his
breezer cashion in for $$3.40. Geor
gette was the next favorite, but the
M. Shields filly showed only early
speed, finishing last.
The second day's program was one
In which the favorites came home to
win in only two out of the six events.
Dainty Rady was a favorite and won
the fourth race over six furlongs,
while Skeesix copped the fifth. All
the other events were won by long
shots or near long shots. The long
shots were Pinaquana in the first;
Mr. Kruter in the second; Rungeorge
winners of the third, and Whippet in
the sixth and final.
Bight off the reel the wiseacres re
ceived a bump when Pinaquana.
Frank Irwin's 3-year-old filly, proved
that she was all that was said of
her when she won the first race over
a fiv# and one-half furlong route and
a muddy track. The time was
1:12 2-5, which wasn’t so had, consid
ering the track and the class of run
ners.
Pinaquana just naturally shot out
when the barrier broke and that's
all thsrs was to it. Bess Welch fin
ished second and Texas Chief was
third. All three were long shots.
Paul Connelly paraded past the
grandstand with the paddock hanging
around his neck. Paul went to the
webbing a 1.60 to 1 shot, but came
home clear out of the money, fin
ishing sixth.
“Long Shot” Wins Race.
The longest shot of all afternoon
shot w-as the 7-year-old son of
Transvall, Mr. Kruter, If you please.
The R. J. Marmet horse which raced
here last year and paid a pretty goad
price, sprang a surprise on the gang
by copping the second race over five
and one-half furlongs from Hazel
Dale, the favorite, and Nonsuit. *
Jockey E. Petzoldt made It two
straight for the afternoon when he
threw a leg over Mr. Kruter. Hazel
Dale took the lead right at the start
and the Irwin entry held It until Just
a little way from home with ol' Mis
ter Kruter got up there to win. Non
suit was in the money soon after the
start and managed to stay there.
But Mr. Kruter. He left the barrier
M fifth position and Jockey Petzoldt
didn't call on the Mister until the
stretch. When the field pointed
homeward Petzoldt set to work. The
son of Transvaal came down the
home stretch wide and with a sudden
burst of speed gradually forged to the
lead, finishing the race winner and
one and one-half lengths In front of
Hazel Dale.
This race was a terrible blow to
the barkers of Hazel Dale, but was
a dandy for the supporters of Mr.
Kruler, the latter rewarding his back
era with $16 to $2 straight tickets and
$12 .20 on place ducats.
Jockey Singleton, who rode many
winners here last spring, brought
in a winner yesterday In the third
race over the five and onehalf fur
long distance when Kungeorge. a f>
to 1 shot, finished a head In front of
Bond, the favorite, for first money.
Prologue, an 8 to 1 play, got home
for show.
Singleton got his mount away fifth,
hut didn't waste any time getting
Rungeorge to the front, where he
held the lead throughout. Bond raced
in place posltlhn until the etretch,
where he forged to the front, but
when Rungeorge challenged the Jones
entry, Bond couldn't kncp the pace
Prologue, after racing in show from
the start, Just barely got down there
for third place, finishing a neck to
the good over Don Jose, the second
favorite.
Favorite Romps Home.
Dainty Lady, from the E. McCuan
establishment, with F. Horn in the
pilot house, was the paddock's choice
for the fourth race over six furlongs,
and the 7-year-old daughter of Celt
didn't forget her backers, either. She
raced up to place position on the far
turn, where she gradually overtook
Moon Winks an eighth out and won
with plenty of speed. Mildred Boon
was easily third best, while Kentucky
Smiles, the fourth start, showed a
flash of speed early and then died out.
Whippet was up to his tricks again
yesterday. A field of se\en platers
paraded out for the sixth and final
event of the afternoon over a si fur
long route. The clouds sprung a leak
before the runners answered the call
and the track was plenty muddy by
the time the barrier broke.
Whippet, who is a horse with a lot
of bad manners, acted mean at the
barrier and delayed the start four
minutes. Starter McKnight put the
Z. E. McGregory horse on the outside,
but this didn't seem to bother Whip
pet the least. He got away slowly
and was last until the stretch, where
Jockey W. Varley set to work in the
coop and urged the son of Broom
stick on. When he stuck his nose
homeward, Jockey Varley gave him
the whip and Whippet responded with
a burst of speed that put him over
the line winner.
Sister Susie of the . B. Irwin firm
was the paddock's choice. Whippet
was a 12 to 1 shot. The Irwin en
try showed good speed all the way
until the last 50 yards, when she was
too tired to answer the challenge of
Whippet. Grayson Was third.
The gates will be thrown open to
the ladies this afternoon and a good
ly crowd of the fair ones is epected
to be on hand when the third day's
program of si races is staged.
A small crowd saw yesterday's
events, which were interesting from
start to finish.
Houser’s Hitting
Feature of Athletes
Chicago, June 3:—Joe Hauser, the
Philadelphia Americans’ slugging first
baseman whose hitting is a big factor
in the mad rush of the Athletics to
ward the top of the league pennant
chasers, made a strong bid last week
for the home run honors of his cir
cuit when he smashed out four cir
cuit drives.
Hauser ran his string of homers up
to eight, only one behind Ken Wil
liams. w ho failed to stretch his string,
and three less than Babe Ruth, who
is leading the league with 11.
"Cy” Williams, veteran of the Phil
lies, cracked out his 19th four bagger
last week in the National league and
is leading all the home run sluggers
leaders with live or more homers
to their credit follow:
