Saint Iohn has success

Saint John Exhbition Park witnessed another great harness racing season as crowds continu- od to wend their way to this popular racing oval.

Saint John has made a ter- rific comeback in the harness

oupies in Maritime racimz cir- cles today.

This past season 51 race-meet- iigs were conducted on th e Exhirbition Pad: track. This fig tire was five less than the race programs run off in 1962. The total pari-mutuel handle was $062,094 as compared to 1.300,- 000 for 56 meets in the previous season. While this figure shows quite a marked decrease in wagering. it compares most favorably with all other Mari- time ovals.

Total purses for the 51 meets lhis summer amounted to $93,450

It was that £',l'L‘-JL favorite from Glace Bay, Nova Scolia, Bob Brook, owned by Don Mac. Kenzie that went the fastest mile of the season over the Saint John oval. The year old pacer won The Alexander Memorial Pace on Domimon Day in 2.05 flat. This was only one of the
