What thrill can compare with
it? The "sport of kings!" The
history of racing goes bu'k to the
earliest era, down, through the Egyp
tian, Roman, Crusade and succeed
ing eras. The authentic tales of
man's love for the horse date al
most from the beginning of civiliza
tion. There is no other animal in
which man has placed the confi
dence that he bestows on the horse.
Fortunes have been emassed. many
swept away, lifetimes devoted to the
pursuance of the beat of thunder
ing hoofs on the soft turf of the
track love, honor, homes, life itself
sacrificed for this wonderful sport.
And to those who love the horse
itself for the grace, the courage, the
pride and splendid endaurance, no
racing car or vaulting airplane could
bring the quickening joy that
mounts in the blood like potent
wine at the close finish of a horse
race.
Like the retinue of royalty the
race horse and his handlers move
from track to track. Today be
gins the tbree days of racing with
out which a county fair would be
a poor show indeed.
