. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. TA7*7 -E33WTY 3"^^. SAN FRANCISCO. SATURDAY, NOV. 16, 1889. RECORD BREAKERS. SIINOL, 3-year-old. by Electioneer-Waxana - Zil01-2 PALO ALTO, 7-year-old, by Electioneer-Dame Winnie 2:12 1-2 STAMBOUL, 7-year-old, by Sultan-Fleetwing - - 2:13 3-4 REGAL WILKES, 2-year-old, by Guy Wilkes-Margaret, 2:20 3-4 FAUSTINO, yearling stallion, by Sidney-Faustine 2:35 California has the Yearling Stallion Record, the Two-Year-Old Stallion Record, and the Three-Year-Old Record of the World. The Greatest Days' Racing Ever Witnessed in the United States. What California Climate Can Do for Horses. In the issue of October 19th of this year ('Grim,:' in his GoBBip department, had the following paragraph: Since onr last issue Axtell has made another new record, the present one being for three-year-olds, 2:12, but in mak- ing this he also establishes a new Rtallion record for all ages. The cutting was done at Terra Haute, Indiana, on Friday, October 11th. With good weather here there are at least two horses that can beat Axtell's record, and I ODly hope my East- ern readers will not think I am puffing California, for there is a chance that before tbis copy may reach them tbat not only the three-year-old record will be beaten, but that the stallion record will be rubbed out. The assumption was warranted, as it was an open secret that Sunol could go the distance whenever called upon, and Palo Alto, 2:13$, was also known to be very fast, in fact, if it had not been for Senator Stanford, Axtell's record would have lasted exactly twenty-four hours. On October 12th Sunol was started for the three-year-old Btake on the first day of the Trotting Horse Breeders' Meeting, and there were not ten persons on the grounds but what felt confident that the filly eould have beaten Axtell's 2:12; as it was she went to the quarter in 36 seconds, to the half in 1:11}, and came home the last half in 1:04J, making the mile in 2:15|.
