Rico was s wonderful performance considering it is his first start this " year.

The 2.20 Class Trot showed up a great trotter in Shenandoah, 2.08M. a-product oi the Walnut Hall of Lexington, Kentucky. This horse had difficult manners when he first came to Cape Breton. but under the skiiful training of Stein Purvis, of Dr. Sharper fame, he has become a high class racing machine. His breeding is of the de luxe order and it would take a lot oi money to buy

" one to beat him in his class.

The 2.21 Pace brought out a field 0! Iood performers and fast time re- sulted. The winner proved to be Sunbeam, 2.12%, owned and driven by Gwrge W. Reed. Port Fairfield Maine. one oi the potato kings of Aristook County and also one oi the

. finest sportsmen on top oi the earth: Second money went to Del Volo. 2.13, owned by G. Herbert Foss. o_i roi-t Fairfield,’ Maine. Both horses were trained and conditioned un- der the care and guidance oi our popular friend, "Monte" Gerow.

The weather conditions gave the horsemen and spectators consider able anxiety and s. great eflort was ma“ t0 Bet the entire 9118mm over before the storm broke, Starter Thompson almost succeeded, the rain coming just before the final heat,

Kitty McKane made a break going away but caught and came very fast trotting up to the leader and staying with him qfor quite aways. Johnny Walker also showed a lot oi speed trotting on even terms with the leaders. The three horsu abreast made a very pretty piotin-s, but the Sydney iiier lasted the longest and drew away, the others tiring, so that Louise, who was going the short mils on the in- side, headcd them at the three- quarter pole. May Cromwell who had been back in ilith place came with a great rush through the stretch and nosed her out at the wire. May trotted s dandy mile for Driver Smith. Johnny Walker fourth, Kitty McKanne fifth. The time in the three heats was really 800d. " _ Free ior All

‘This was the race where the fire- works were expected, because it was to bring together seven great horse- es. The story was true. Bonnie M. Trampsmug and Volo Rico were

‘“ the outstanding pacers in the big stake races on the Grand Circuit and Bay State Circuit in 1928 and 1020, while Janette Royal had shown tremendous class in the $10,000 and $25,000 stakes on the Bay State. Ruby P. created e, new track record oi 2.06 1-4 at St. Steph- en last iali while Eula H. is con- ceded by all in the Maritimes to be the fastest Free for Aller within these precincts. Lambert Todd, the other starter, showed flashes oi his old time form when he was the great stake pacer for Tommy Murphy. Never in the history oi the local track has there been such a. formidable array of speed, and probably never in the Maritime Provinces have so many fast rec- ord horses come together in one race. Bonnie M. and Eula BL, had met this season at Fredericton in July, Bonnie ' one heat and Eula the other two and race. Trampsmug and Ruby P., and Jan- ette Royal had been battling it out down in Cape Breton with Tramps- mug having the best of the argu- ment. Lambert Todd had been tho winner of the junior free for ails there. Volo Rico was making her first start in the Maritirnes and was an unknown quantity. Corning here last May he had gone lame, but by careful treatment became sound. So the stage was set ‘ior a great race and such it proved to be with a surprise in store for the grandstand in the third heat that will probably not be forgotten for a. great many years.

First Holt

They got away on the sixth score to a pretty good start, Eula 1-1., at the pole, Bonnie M. trailing, Volo Rico on the outside with Jeanette Royal in behind, Trampsmug ‘and Lambert Todd outside of Volo Rico. Eula H. and Volo Rico went up the back stretch neck and neck. When about half way around the turn Bonnie M, who was trailing close behind Eula, made a. bad break in the loose footing and did not re- cover irorn it in time and caught ‘the banner. As soon as Bonnie lost his stride Volo dropped in‘ behind Eula, sticking there until the last hundred yards when he pulled out and made a try to get to Eula but could not by over a length. ‘lb-amps- inug who was over a length behind Volo turning into the stretch came very. i... and finished n neck be-

‘mug a good third~ while Lambert

Todd again beat out Ruby P., and Jeanette Royal for fourth. There was considerable expectancy as to the time made in this heat. Everyone felt that it must be at least very close to the track record oi 2.08 1-4 made by John R. Braden in 1923. When the hoard was hung out with 2.08 flat on it there was a great cheer ior Eula H- and her driver. Third Heat. They went away on the second score to a dandy start. Eula as usual stepping away very fast, Volo Rico sticking close in behind The three-quarter pole was reached in 1,36, exactly the same time as the proceeding mile. At that point Volo Rico seemed to be full of pace and had his nose rest- ing against Driver Keyes’ back. They turned into the home stretch without change oi position and the Grandstand seemed to sense that there was going to be something doing for they rose en masse. About half way down the stretch Volo was pulled out from behind Ella and in a flash was on even terms with her. From there to the wire was a battle royal which end- ed in one of the most thrilling fin- ishes seen here for years, Volo having a head and neck to the good. It was a great heat and gave a l thrill to everyone present. The race for the other position re- sulted in Ruby P. coming through strong beating out Lambert Todd. Janette Royal improved her posi- tion in this heat by being fifth, and Trampsmug went back sixth.

2.21 PACE. Before this race could be concluded a. downpour of‘ rain occurred which sent those on the bleachers scurrying to cover. First Heat. Eight starters came to the wire. some high class, high priced horses being oi the number. ‘Local people pinned their faith to Jac- queline who was good, but not as good as last year when she stepped in 2.10. They got away after s. few scores with Sunbeam in the lead, which she held throughout, he: challenge coming from Jess Na- poleon through the stretch, after Jess who had started last horse mowed down all opposition and stepped a. marvellous heat, being only a. length back oi Sunbeam. Jacqueline paced well, being a very close third, Del Volo s. high class pacer from Maine was fourth at Jacqueliniis wheel, King Spruce, another high class pacer irom the Keyes stable fifth, Golden Peter sixth and Louise Colorado who had been almost on even terms with Sunbeam to the three~quarter pole but could not carry the clip, sev- cnth.

Second Heat. This was a real good race. Sunbeam held the lead the entire mile but in the last eighth Del Volo, who was fourth horse entering the stretch, came Very fast passing Jess Napoleon and Jacquelin and finishing second. only beaten a head in very fast time for the track, 2.12 1-4. It was one 6f the best finishes of the meeting and both horses got a great cheer from the Grandstand.

‘Third Heat. They got away on the first sccrce to a good start, Sun- beam leading as usual. Louise Coi- orado showing a lot of speed and trailing in behind. At the time!- quarter pole Jacqueline was second, but Jess Napoleon came up on the outside and went by followed by Del Volo. When they turned into the stretch Del Volo again came with a rush and beat Jess to the wire, finishing within half a length oi Sunbeam. Another good heat. Jacqueline went a most creditable race as she was up against season. ed campaigners. This heat was paced in a very heavy shower of rain making it most uncomfortable for drivers and spectat .s.
