Close Races at Baldwin Park Crowded Program Halted by Darkness
Darkness halted the deciding heat of the 2 12 pace after Red View and Judge Leary each won two heats in a tense program at Baldwin Park. About a thousand spectators watched as delays and a near-storm of the judges’ stand followed the postponed heat. Desyyn and Ines Marie won the other two $300 purses, with Deccy, Dutch Reed and Betsy Eves contending in the 2 15 trot. The 2 17 pace opened with Brown Abbey stealing the pole before Ines Marie prevailed in three heats. The day closed with Flying Alboys winning a five-eighths mile running race as darkness fell.
