Prince Pointer began well, and at the end of five furlongs he led , Imprint' by six lengths, • with Great Bingen trailing the latter. Great Bingen closed up/along the .back,.and ran to within 'a length of ■Prince Pointer at, the top, where Imprint 'was lieaten off. Once into the straight, .Great Bingen challenged and won amid 'enthusiasm.by about a length from Prince Pointer, with Imprint, who was sore, a Jong way/back. Great Bingen's effort was invested with considerable brilliancy, and he was given an ovation'when led on to the lawn for the prescntation-of the Cup.
