Bright sunshine and warm wea- ther brought out a large number of spectators to see the workouts It the Charlottetown race track on the Queen's birthday. The big- gest attraction appeared to be the fast record pacer Sir Joseph 1.585i that was purchased at the Harris- burg sale last fall by Roy Bevan of Charlottetown. Mr. Bevan also bought Ted Genessee. then a 2- year-old trotter. and Brookline. a yearling pacer. now two. Sir Joseph had taken his record in defeating a very fast field in- cluding several with records bet- ter than 2.00 at Lexington. Ky. He had engaged in battles With the best pacers in the world over half mile tracks such as Roose- velt and Yonkers and was re- nowned as a horse possessing ter- rific lick. Sir Joeph's sire is Vole- mlte 2.039;. the world's greatest sire. and his dam is Elizabeth Hudson. dam of Florence Knight 2.0433 and his grandam is Eliz- abeth, the dam of Greyhound l.55V4. the world's greatest trot- ter. also of four others with re- cord! better than 2.04 and gran- 2311: of one in 2.00 and 13 in

Ted Genessee is a large well formed. good mannered 3-year- old trotter. His sire is Rodney 15751. One of the greatest trot- ten that has gone down the Grand Circuit and now an out- standing sire. His grandsire on tl1e,dam's side is Hal Dale z.02Vi, one of the world's greatest sires of pacing speed. Ted Genessee had trained up to a mile in 2.20 last year and was then turned out by Stanley Dancer as not up to competing with the other heav-

ed horse.

It was fortunate for Roy that he placed these horses hands of Archie Llewellyn for we can conscientiously say that no man anywhere could have done better with them. Sir Joseph has manners galore. him a mile in four minutes or three minutes. horses can be all around him and he doesn't pull or show any bad habits whatever. The three horses are well up in flesh and can stand a lot miles but they will be very best condition. Another mem- ber of the stable shows rejuvena- sweet little pacer Silk Hal 2.09lx'a. Archie also has the 4-year-old trotter Royal Train 3. 2.20, winner of the 3-year-old iuturity trot last season. and the
