There isnll a fan on thc lsle that doesn't know by now that Bay State Pat won the race in three straight beats in as spec- tacular a bit of racing as the old Charlottetown Park has ever seen. Although Andy Perry's bay gelding didn't crack the lracl mark of 2.055 set by Bud Wen- ger back in 1936. he defioilel) established himself as just about the best there is in the Mari- tinios. it is indeed uiifortnnatc that the great gelding has to run the long mile. for it he could get out in fi'nnt at the beginning of a race there is hardly ii doubt in the world bill that he could traterse the oval in 2.05.
