He raced in numer- ous hard eampaigns and broke the world's record for pacing geld- ings nver mile and half-mile tracks. He died at the age of 21. Ah

zcmrect 2.03 3-4 was the fastest troiter that ever ran on the range. He was bred at Vovina, California, and run with a band oi horses on the range until he was four years old.
