IIOWII TIIE

A correspondent has forwarded us n. 41991118 from on Ontario news lillpfil‘ headed "Harness Horsemen nrc Finding Favor with the New Barrier." We quote: ‘T1111; {n11 at Dufferin track the McNnmgrg barrier was used. The public as well as the majority of trainers were in favor of it providing a few or the rough spots were ironed out in connection with its operation, There was one thing the ‘some; method of starting did, it elimim atcd llII the tedious scoring that had been prevalent in the past." Our frlned asks why not use it at Charlottetown? For his informa. tloii and othel we would soy that thc management of the Provincial Exhibition have been in touch with the makers of the McNamara bar- l‘if‘l' and have its installation un- dcr conlsdcrotion. However, it is iiot quite as satisfactory as would fllllfear from the cli ping above. Iii the last heat of e Free for All at Dufferin track, every horse was disqualified and there was some considerable row from driv- crs. owners and spectators. If one- could be sure of drivers and horses co-opernting the barrier would be ideal but there are bad actors fllllilflg the horses and drivers who piiin the works, so in many cosa the use 0.1’ a barrier has led to

iery unsatisfactory results.
