Close Contests and Good Crowds Make J Angement Happy
The opening racing day at the driving park drew large, excited crowds despite a dreary dawn. Loretta F and Bessie G dominated early heats with Lorette F winning the late stakes. Uncle Ned and Benny battled in endurance trots with Benny prevailing in the final stretch. Jim Town and Clay led a controversial running race with disqualification threats and a disputed heat result. Dolly Wimple and Montie won the two-year old colt races, while Teaser D. and Iris vied in the 2:27 trot before postponements.
