We all like to step on the gut. a bit. but we should use discretion as to when and where we are on high. For instance automobllas have a hill“ of 801113 around to the horse stables at the Charlottetown Driv- ins Pill: track at a swift rate and In 001118 50 they kick up a. lot of dust which makes it uricornfortable for the horsemen stabled there ma also disturbs the horses consider- ably. The other day an autolst thoughtlesslv sped around and the swift rush and misc or his cai- frishtened Leta Kalmuclr, who was 1°°k1ns out or her Stall door and she lumped back and injured hei- knee. This is a valuable mare and while it is likely the trouble will yield to treatment before any neg. ual harm is done, yet it might be the means of curtailing her speed, Sumly this hint will be suillclent to cause a chanze for the better.

There was a large contingent of friends and supporters or peter Worthy in lrom Hunter River wed- nesday to see their trotting repre- sentative pertonn. While the time was not fast in the event—2,2o 1-2 —and Peter's summary was 4-3-2. Yet quite a number of experienced horsemen seem to think he has a future. Anyhow, he has one char- acteristic of a race horse and that is the will and ability tb finish strong

Jackie Volo, owned and driven by Well McNei1I, came within a. mess- urable distance of the record for Maritime breds at Wednesday's mstineawhenhepaoedamilein 2.12 8-4. As well as I can remem- ber thrbwt eirort 0! a Maritinie bred three-year-old is 2.171-4,ma.de by E ‘, bred and owned by Lt- Colonel J. S. Jenkins, D.S.O.. in an

exhibition lie at Charlottetown several yea ago. driven by Peter Canray.~

Claire Napoleon. 2.12, has been nlsoed in training with the veteran Toin Holmes. owner Neil Walker has brought her along very cue- iully and she isuptoamilearound 2.15, as her summary in Wednes- day's matinee will show. 'I‘oin- is pa:-tlcu.la.r'ly good with paoers as was evidenced by the way be him- dled sammon Hal, 2.02 1-2, when he had him in tow.

Johnny Murray must have been on pins and needles Wednesday, as he was hay-making and could not attend the matinee races. No one loves to see a race better than he does and the tact that his Captain Cope was taking part made it all the more regrettable. However, his ds.d—aged B2—e.nd youngest sister were right on deck to see the little trotter step it ofi.

Allie Bumhsm. 2.08 1-4. owned by Max F\?l‘8\is0Il. Stanley Bridge, was a. surprise horse, ﬁghting it cut each heat right to the wire and, being 2-2, inches back in 2.14 1-2 and 2.14. He has only been at the trackabout two weeks and previously received nothing but farm and road work. it looks to the writer as though Pomp Bailey has a star pacer to. go tothe racas with if Burnham can be got back to the form he displayed three years iigo on the Bay State circuit when he winged the ovals there in 2.10 1-4 to 2.10 on several occasions.

Claude McMilla.n's three-year-old tmttor Millie Kalmuck looks like one of the improving kind, and it wand mt be surprising if by the time the Futuritlm are here that she will be able to equal or better Devlisws Maritime bred three-year old izretizing record oi 2.17 1-4.

Summarside races on Wednesdly is the next big event for the horse- men and their friends. The enter- eommlt‘ hsvinz it in hand have been around to see the var- ious horsemen and are assured of A big entry list. with the very best of competition in each class.

The 2.17 Class will be I battle

The three-year-old will-see in actionciuyhnn and Iii- Sox. the latter much improved over Jul 1st iorrn. line Steele also has a dandy three-year-old trotter in his stable owned by Captain John L. Read, that was a mile in 220 at summsrslde track this week.

There will be Grand Circuit rac- ing st Old Orchard, Maine, track starting Monday. It is a great sum- mer resort town and at this season or the year there are thousands oi visitors there and the Circuit meet- ing is expected to bring many thou- sands more.

Miss Budlong, 31.10, is the ilrst performer that we have noticed as taking a record sired by the Cape Breton free-ior-aller Calumet Bud- long, 2.02 3-4. By the way, he was an extra good horse on Wednesdpy when be lowered tne track record of 2.09 1-4 to 2.08. Last season he suffered irom lameness but was tir- ed and blistered and this year is as sound as a dollar. Being sound he is a very dangerous horse to go up against as he paced miles in 2.03 1-4 over a hall’-mile track in 1934.

Gibson White. son of the veteran trainer Ben Vlrhlte, has the small- est horse racing in Jack Orr, 2.01 1-4. He is only iourteen hands high but is every inch hzrse. Last. year he was the leading two-year-old paoer and this year is giving agood ace ‘ oi’ himself on the Grand circuit in the three-year-old events.

!=l’.anover's Bertha. 1.59 1-2, has a two-year-old daughter that looksas though she will follow in her moth- er's ieotsteps. Shirley 1-lsnover took a record of 2.08 1-2 last week and came the last half or her mile in 1.01 1-2.

An epidemic of coughing has struck the runners stabled at Bui- iolk Downs track near Boston, Mass. The management deny that a.nepi- demic is sweeping the barns, but the fact that a great many substi-

as evidence that the rumor is cor- rect.

A total of $11,428,324 has been wagered on the 240 races run of! in thirty days, which included last Saturday. The average for each day is $382,777, ‘truly an aim:st un- believable amount allowing that there is lots of dough in the U.S.A.

The many friends of "Red" Hen- aiin will regret that he met with injurlu in a. collision on the race track at Lewtston, Mass, last week. “Red" will be recalled as driving the John E. Kelly horses here four years ago. The writer can pay B tribute to him. as he took quick measures to prevent piling hlshorse on top of me and thereby injured his own chance for the heat. “Red" is well liked wherever he goes. Old- er ians will remember that he was the driver up behind College Swift, 2.11 1-4, in that famous race in Septernber 1920 with Dick 0., 2.14 1-4, which went iour heats and was canted over for a fifth the next day.

Governor Louis J. Brann oilidaine likes the harness horses, and dur- ing the recent meeting at Topsham entertained mrre than 50 owners and drivers at luncheon.

Last Monday when the races got under way at Goshen, l>l.Y., there was not a vacant stall at either the hali-mile or mile tracks there, and horses had to be stabied in neigh- bors’ barns and even in garages.

Signal Senator is a real race horse and owner 11. M. Sweeney was handed a bargain when he bought him a year ago last spring. erai of us ahd the chance but the story that he went to his knees frightened us 011. In Sweeney's hands he has taken a record of 2.10 and has beaten horses that cost five times as much. At Sydney his miles in 2.11, 2.12 1-2 and 2.12 were rip- ping good, and wonder oi wonders. it was Joe the Great that was 2-2-2. Joe will be remembered as having set up ii. two-year-old record of 2.24 1-2 in 1931 and it was that record that Guy Ann lowered last August to 224 1-4 at the Provincial Exhi- bition and later on in the Futur-

ities to 2.24.

It must have been a severe dis- appointment to the owners of the great trotter Greyhound, to be de- feated in the Free-for-All Trot at Goshen last Wednesday.
