the plaudits of throngs in a manner
pleasing to ALL Fast time and slow
were interspersed but at no stage of
the races was there any walk
ways. and every heat winner knew
that race had been run ere they
reached the wire.
Patty. the little bay daughter of
Francis =. Gentry. with Pottle up
came through with her third win in
the unfinished ZIG pace brought over
from Wednesday. Billy Wyman can
well be proud of his little PAGER, who
looks to be a conner, and due to go
faster than she has shown.
The 2.25 mixed with the $500 purse
was the easiest win of the day for
Nativa North. but even this race
furnished O few fine brushes close
to the wire.
The third race which was the first
$1,000 purse race for 2.17 trotters was
humdinger with Lady Spencer and
Baroness Chelsea riding Alfred King.
the Houlton entry three very fast
miles for these big fellows. The
second heat was the hottest and
during the drive down the stretch
horse blanket could have been spread
so as to partially cover three Of the
four entries.
Northern Mac. with Bob Waite up.
won the PA pace but was forced
to equal the track record In the sec
ond heat when Wilgus pushed him
out in 210 Ia. This is the track
mark made on Tuesday by Jenny II,
with w. II. Reyes in the sullty. Ro-
qua F caused great deal Of excite
ment by noSing out the field in the
third go. with Wilgus and Peter Tan
lac rushing her to the wire. and Nor
thern Mac trailing fourth, due to
bad break. keyes was placed fourth
for Interference, however, and Will
gus was given the heat. Waite was
able to keep Northern Mac well up
in the final and won in a hard driV-
ing finish.
The last race OF the day was car
ried away by Diving Pottle behind
Hilarious in three straight and while
the time was slow Princelyne forced
the going at the wire and three
pretty races were seen in this added
event.
Taken all in all the days program
was one of the best seen here and
only the great card for today's trot-
ting could possibly be better. The
Free for all with Calgary Earl, r.
H. Brett, Jenny H.. and the great
Zom Q with Burril up, will be
watched closely as will the o.12 Trot
