Sunny Slope. the three-year-old colt i
belonging to William Martin of Ken-
tucky. won the Jerome Handicap at
Belmont Park yesterday afternoon. He
defeated A. K. Mocomberls Motor Cop
and l". Housman's Lindy Gertrude in a
gallop. In carrying off the stake Sun-
ny Slope ran over the one mile course
in the fast time of 1:38 2—5. So im-
pressive was his victory that horsemen
placed him on ‘the top rung of the
championship ladder bale the re-
nowned Johl'en and the mighty Sun
Briar.
For several months Sunny Slope was
considered a good colt. but few race-
gocrs put him in the same class with
the championship contenders. He had
finished second in the Preakness. but
in the opinion of the experts that race i
fits a lash in the pan. He went tot
Saratogn branded as an ordinary colt“
‘with a good tum of speed and abilityt
to turn a mile in fair time. There hol
defeated some good buses. but his vic-
tory went practically unnoticed.

When he was added for the Jerome
