140 HISTORY OF THE 



Paul Jones met challenge with challenge and at the close dis- 

 played a heart of iron as he drove madly under the wire with 

 Upset at his throat-latch. 



Throughout the stretch the twain waged a heartrending duel. 

 As they took the final turn Upset made his bid. Inch by inch he 

 forged past rump and flank and withers. He stretched fiery nos- 

 trils alongside the gelding's throat. Only the blazed face re- 

 mained between him and victory. On they came past the furlong 

 pole, and still the blazed face would not be dislodged. It re- 

 mained there to the end. 



This triumph of the East was more than a victory for Ken- 

 tucky. The ugly little brown boasts blood that long has been 

 the pride of the Blue Grass. His dam is by Hamburg, which got 

 Jersey Lightning, the dam of Regret, and Hamburg's sire was 

 the immortal Hanover, by Hindoo, winner of the Kentucky 

 Derby of 1881. Hindoo was from the loins of Virgil out of 

 Florence, by Lexington, and he by Boston, the great Boston.
