Show Tie Race The long talked of race between Ewing and Mary Emery for 5000 made on the last day of the race between Bateman Emery and Bickfordwill take place at the track today The race was made to come off a week ago last Thursday but the track being bad rendered it impossible Since that time a good day and track has anxiously anx-iously been looked forward to For a time it was thought the race would take place on Thursday last but Mr Travis was indisposed and it was deferred until today when the track will be much better No one has the hardihood to make a pointed prediction on theresult of the race and notwithstanding the fact that each animal has its ardent admirers the utmost doubt prevails Before the recent remarkable exhibition ex-hibition of the mare it was thought she had no business in a race against Ewing but now it is considered as close as it well could be It is a question if Ewing has much better bet-ter speed than she and it is ao question ques-tion that she can stay with him Besides the mare has had steady work all summer and latterly has been feeling in splendid condition Had the race taken place on the day set the general belief is that she would have won but now that Ewing has had more work it becomes closer They were both worked out the other day and while the mare trotted well in point of time made it is said Ewing was ahead However it is thought the mare was not put at her best While today will settle this race it is altogether unlikely to determine which is the better of the two animals ani-mals |
