Carroll, owned by A. w. Robinson,
of vandalia, made highly creditable
race in the 2:26 trot, lowering her
record to 2:27. Before the rae was
called Emma was driven a trial
against her mark OF 2:33la and
finished a smooth mile in2:31, trot-
ting every foot of the way without
the slightest distress. Mr.. c. F.
Clark drove her to his pneumatic
sulky and when he got off the seat
said he was satisfied she would do
better in the race. "This heat only
warmed her up" remarked MIR.
Clark. In a short time the 1926
class was called and George Lee ap-
peared behind Emma on the bicycle
sulky. There were three starters
Emma Carroll, Oliver Ross, her hall
brother, and Ashman. Emma won
the first heat, finishing strong and
beautiful in 2:27, thus placing her
self in the charmed circle. The next
heat Oliver Ross, $50, was hitched
to the new sulky to test his speed.
The mare broke badly several times
and lost the heat to Oliver in 2:31.
When she was steadied she took up
her clip and finished a mighty close
second. If the mare had kept her
feet, Notwithstanding the change
of sulkies, she would have won
in straight heats. Emma Carroll
is a nice, even-gaited mare and
there we're places in the mile that
she went much faster than a :27
gait. The good news of the mares
performance was Immediately wired
to her owner, MI. Robinson, by the
LEDGER, which rejoices with him
that she is now in the list.
Oliver Ross, although he did not
trot quite to his mark, did excellent
work and with proper care and
handling will go in :27 or :2S be-
fore the racing season closes.
Kinda Ross, dam Rialto by
Hamadah, lowered her record from
2:4O to 2:34la, and demonstrated,
too, that she is a trotter. Kinda
belongs to c. F. Clark and is a valu-
able mare.
Emma Carroll, Oliver Ross and
Kinda Ross are by Charley Ross,
who was a son of the noted Snug
gler, 2:154.
