There were four entries--two bays, a sorrel, and Carter's own little thoroughbred "Nettie." He watched her as she pranced around the ring under Ricks's skilful handling; she had nothing to fear from the bays, but the sorrel was a close competitor.
"Oh, this is your race, isn't it ?" cried Annette as the band struck up "Dixie." "Where's my namesake?

Why, he's Sandy's friend, isn't he ?" Sandy winced under her teasing, but he held his peace.
The first heat Nettie won; the second, the sorrel; the third brought the grand stand to its feet.
