COLT SWEEPSTAKES

HIGH-BORN LADY
SETS TRACK RECORD

What proved to be the most sensa-
tional meeting for harness racing
colts was held at Belmont Driving
Park yesterday. Not only was the
track record broken for three-year-
old trotters in a race, but all records
for youngsters we're swept away.
Five three-year-old trotters faced the
starter in the Narberth Sweepstake
event and were off to the quarter like
a field of aged campaigners. Lizzie
Duval stepped to the front and led
at the half but Eddie Quinn had High
Born Lady well within herself and
trailed to the three-quarter pole. At
this point Aileen Bacon, Lizzie Duval
and High Born Lady made a race
through the stretch and it was at
the distance post where the winner
forged to the front and passed under
the wire first by half a length. The
mile was in 2.12 Ia the record for
the distance. age and gait in a race.
The succeeding heats we're practi-
cally a repetition of the first, with
the exception that through the stretch
Hollywood Evelyn was a contestant
to the wire.
On account of the failure of the
zombro sweepstake event to fill prop
erly consolation race was arranged
between Mary Warren and The zom-
bro Lady. No entrance was changed
nor was there any money at stake,
so the event was merely a friendly
race in which neither horse incurred
a record. Mary Warren showed the
lspeed of her life and crowned her ac-
tive career by trotting a public mile
in race better than 2.10. This rec
ord made by Mary Warren does not
stand as race record, but IL was
the first 2.10 performance to the cred
it of DR.. c. u. Weber, her breeder.
In the sporting sweepstakes for 2
yCar-old trotters five of the most
promising Juvenile trOtters in this
section of the country scored for the
word. Silkobel, Ida May w. and
lColorells were off to the quarter in
a bunch and worked away from the
field to the half. Colorclls made a
break followed by Ida May w. and
Silkobel rushed to the front from
/ which position he could not be dis
5 placed.
In the second heat Healy shot Ida
May w. to the front at the first turn
s and led at the quarter, Silkobel maxi
. ing a disastrous break Healy was
raced home by Colorells and Holly
s rood Constant. but neither had speed
4 enough to win.
