New York October 2 Keene stable mare Maskette led early but faded in the stretch as Firestone driven by Keene also ran down the 4 year old mare at Aqueduct in the $240 handicap Olambala also contested the pace as Maskette and Olambala set the early tempo Keene predicted soft going would favor Maskette but Firestone surged past in the final yards to win by a neck with Olambala third in the 14-18 mile feature Shilling trained Firestone while Hildreth scratched Fitzherbert at the last moment for riskier ticketing and the public saw Firestone claim the prize amid a whip driven finish.
