Included in that list of the trotters is Gallant Heart 2.05, who won i0 races. was three times sec- ond. three times third and once fourth and is credited with earn. iniis of $4,304. Gallant Heart was purchased as a. yearling at the Walnut Hall dispersal sale sixyears ago by the late Hedle T, miton of Up r Stewiacke. .S., and he raced or t/wo years in Mr. Fulton's ownership. _o.._ Another winner of l0 races on the pace is Royal Bars 2m. cred- ited with $2,405.56. George A. Call- beck and the writer saw Royal Bars in his first start last June at Richelieu Park and liked him very. much although he did not win the event. Our opinion was that the hopoles were too loose and very likely that was the cause as he went on with a winning atreak after that. The trotter Paiachuk who won that day in 2.19% event- ually took a record of 2.11 and al- though obliged to meet pacer-s in most of his starts ran up a string fl strong factor and money winner in his other eight appearances in Quebec. -_o Saratoga 2.00, a pacer that races bare-footed, has evidently become acclimated, states The Harness Horse, as during the past year he raced true to form, scoring ei ht victories in i0 starts and led he horses in the Quebec section in earnings. As a two-year-old he won eight races and as a three- yearold nine races and in his four- year-old form was five times first and three times second. averaging in excess of $5,000 in earnings in each of the campaigns. Following Ohio. in 2.00 in the $6.000 Free for All he was sold to Quebec finan- ciers and his first year there-THC --was a disappointment, but he evidently found himself in 1044 as he was almost a repeat winner and should land many more victories q-nfli He can leave and he can come home and in between start and finish seems perfectly contented in any apot placed. Buch duallflcat- lons when combined wth high speed are what makes a consistent campaigner. He has a full broth- er, Singapore 2.01%, that has a higher flight of speed. He won s couple of races as a t/wo-year-olt then was laid off in 100-48 ant came back in 10M and gathere" in id victories and more than ed,- 000 the past season.

England, Julie 8-—(AP)— Dante. Sir Eric Ohlsen's “ck” o; m‘, geek mngmwkedbrown colt. moved out in front as l the No. 1 favorite today on the eve of Great Britain's final Derby un- der wartime conditions. If he wins, lhe will break the jinx that has hung over top-rated horses during the conflict. No favorite has won a Derby since England's most famous turf event moved from Epsom Downs, where as many as a million spec- Itators watched, to the odd L-shap- ed training course here where 8.000 or 10.000 fans make a capacity crowd. Rated close to Dante are Lady Derby's High Peak and Lord Rose- bery's Midas. Hunch bettors are swinging to High Peak, which will be ridden by Harry Wragg, who today rode Lord Derby's Sun Stream to victory in the Oaks. It was Lord Derby's second Oak's triumph and the victory enriched his coffers b $13,000.
