After 31�2 miles over 19 timber fences on a fairly soft track, the $25,000 Genesee Valley Hunt Cup, held Oct. 14, in Geneseo, N.Y., was decided by a stride or two.
Irv Naylor's Askim (James Slater) came from behind to nail the stretch run over Augustin Stables' Ghost Valley, despite jockey Jody Petty's furious attempt to hold him off.
