You will note in the above qserfarmapces of thepacers of re- llown The ' BackStretch s (Continued from‘ Page‘ ' d) that the fastest pacing miles were stepped by the throe-yersr-olas Knight Dream and Frisco Wyn. Rodney ftrotted the two fastest miles in 1948 stepped by eithtr I trptter or pacer. His driver, Bi Shlvely, is a. Canadian. While we regard, with great ad- miration and even wonder. the cent years. yet if we are fair we must not forget the immortal Dan Patch as the greatest racing ma- ‘chine that ever lived, Dan paced miles ln two minutes or better 1n thirteen states in the U. s. A. during the years 1902-1908. His best performance was in 1.55 at Hemline,’ Minnesota. Sept. _ 8th. 1900, but there was such enmity towards his owner, M. w. Savage that Wallace, compiler of the Year Book, refus d to credit‘ him with the record that is the reason that the record for pacer-s. 1.55. is-held by Billy Direct, that passed away recently at Hanover H100 Farms. ' Dan Patch raced to a sulky that must. have been at least two sec- onds slower than the modern low bike. If you will look up at the pictures of Dan you will notice that the driver is sitting up well over his horse and therefore be- lng subject.» quite a bit of at- mospheric pressure. We noticed our shrewd friend Willard Kelly driving Nell Kalmuck at Covehead. ducking his head down and offer- ing as little target as possible to the wind. In that he was wise. he probably cut off a. half second by doling so. The Charlottetown race track has fulfilled its functions for the season and caretaker Bill MacAus- land is giving it. a very fine top dressing that. will make it more resilient and faster for 1949. Bill is careful and proud of that track and no one can deny that under his care it. has been kept fast and safe. It is certainly one of the fast- est and best tracks to drive on that the umter has ever known. -Y Malcolm Forbes of Massachu- setts. whn conducted a large busi- nrss in Boston, was one of the outstanding harness horse breed- ers in the old days nf the 15th. century. Forbes paid v/hat is still the record price of $125000 for Arion. son of Electioneer. Arion stepped a mile as a two-year-old in 2.10 3-4 to high wheel sulky, which was the world's record. Forbes thought that “this was proof that Arimi would be a high class money winning trotter. but as a. race horse he did not prove n success and opportunities ‘in the stud were not sufficient to give him justice However, his blood is in the pedigree oi’ many of thc greatest‘ horses that have been raced in recent grcars. Forbes also paid $20000 for Peter the Great. after he had won the three-ycar-old division of the Kentucky Futurity in 2.07 1-2 in October, 1898. Peter the Great was one of the starters 1n the Tran- sylvania stakes at Lexington 1a 1899 and Forbes and his friend Thomas Lawson. the celebrated stock market plunger of Boston, bet. heavily on Peter. l-fe made a disastrous break while leading the field a few lengths from the wire and lost the race. Forbes and Law. son were very sore and Forbes be- came a critic of his own horse. He decided he was a failure as a race horse and would be a failure as a sire. After he had been in the stud at Forbes‘ farm near Bush)“ 11¢ but. him up at auction. and __ r111: GUARDIAN.
