THREE-YEAR-0LD LEADS

Philadelphia's Grand Circuit meeuns
last week swelled the seasons list of
new 2 10 trotters TO thirty-seven, an ur-
commonly large number in view of the
fact that nearly all additions to the fast
list are nowadays made on the ten
tracks composing the big league and
that so many of the harness horses
racing there in the slow classes are In
realty outclassed campaigners with old
records faster than 2:10.
Pluto Watts, 2 :O91 a winner at Mid
dletown last week, and Mr.. Kent, :OsA,
a winner at the recent Goshen meeting.
are amsng the few recruits for the 80
list that have come from the half mile
tracks in 1922. Both trotters are four
year -olds. and both were driven to their
records by their amateur owners. E.
Roland Hartman, who won with Pluto
Watts, is a son of the late b. II. Harri-
man, who inherits his fathers rare skill
as a reinsman. When the elder Harri-
man employed w. j. Andrews at sal
ary OF $4,000 a year to train and drive
his harness horses he more than once
got up behind them in their work at

spt just as much speed out of them as
could the great professional, who de-
veloped such champions as Lee AK
worthy, :5SA, and Hamburg Belle.

1t is significant of the growing promi-
nence OF colt trotters that one of the
fastest of the newcomers is the crack
three-year-old Lee Worthy. 2 :05. Peter
Earl, another three-year-old, is close
after him. withoa record of 2 :05 u, while
Bunter, 2:074f and Ensign Tige. 2 10,
are others of the same age that have
trotted in 2 10 or better. The unbeaten
nlly Jane Revere. :0SA, and the black
colt Thompson Dillon, 10, are as yet
the only two-year-olds in the list, but it
Is safe enough to say several others OF
their age will be added before the cam
palgn ends
The blood lines of the fast ones, al
ways interesting and informing, show
the tribe of Axworthy, 10 VI, is over
shadowing that of Peter the Great,
:07A. No less than eleven of the new
2:10 trotters are by sons or grandsons
of this great horse, and three of them
are the offspring of the dead champion.
Lee Axworthy, :5SA. Peter the
Greats descendants in the direct male
line number six. Bingen's descendants
are ten in number, but are more remote.
AS a sire of fast ones Peter far out
ranks any other horse in harness racing
history. however, when the totals for
all years are compared. He is now cred
tied with eighty-nine In the 2.10, list
and nineteen in the 2 :05 list. all told
but it Is estimated that he got more
than 5000 foals. Some horsemen say
1000. The number was probably greater
than is credited to any other trotter or
runner that ever lived.
