Grasslands Downs is not so hard as the famous course at Aintrée, but hard enough; it has 14 fences, ditches, water-jumps, some of them with difficult drops to sloping ground, whereas at Aintrée the drops are generally level. The first five fences behind them, the horses crossed the first ditch and had their tails to the stands. The horses going fast in front were falling at every jump. Julius Fleischmann's big chestnut gelding, Irish Lad, threw his jockey, staggered on a little farther, fell dead...
Sometimes crawling at a walking pace along the narrow, level path past the cots, sometimes swooping at 30 m. p. h. around the steep sides of the great bowl built of spruce boards in Madison Square Garden, bicycle riders raced in the 40th International Six-Day Race. Old Reggie MacNamara, a champion twelve years ago and still strong though no longer fast, was entered; so was big, blond, popular Charles Winter; Gaetano Belloni's wild mane of crinkly hair pushed out above his handlebars.
