Ben Ban wins Woodmere Stakes as bid-up costs cut profit
Duryea's Ben Ban takes the Woodmere Stakes at Aqueduct while the bid-up system cuts into profits. Ben Ban cost Duryea 65 to retain, with purse share only 700, as W. R. Midgley bid him up while Whip Top earned 250 in the reversal of a Gravesend loss. Shadow Glance and Bird of Flight II also win, and track conditions were slow. Andrew Miller reports Adam sails to England for 75,000, while Haggin yearlings brought 18,500 at auction.
