Description
English: Large Crowds At Three Rivers Exhibition Week Races

« A full grandstand was commonplace throughout Exhibition week at the Trois Rivieres oval as evidenced by the photo shown above. Consistently good racing kept the people coming back each day. On day one, the stage was set as a field of the best pacers in the Province faced off in the $1,500 Free For All event. Guy H, the most consistent side wheeler in Quebec at that time, took the first two heats pacing the meeting's fastest mile in 2:05 4/5 in the middle contest. Guy H was handled as always by Honorat Larochelle for owner Elzear Cournoyer of Sorel, Que. In the third heat Texas Hanover driven by Paul Emile Larente eked out a win with Guy H taking down second place money.

On the trotting side Provident won the $1,000 Free For All in three straight heats for owner Emile Blondeau of Quebec City. The week-long racing program was capped off by a five-mile event for both trotters and pacers on closing day. The winner in the field of six was the mare Laura Volo owned by A. Vohl of Saint Marc des Carriers, Quebec with a clocking of 12:34 4/5. The purse for this event was $800. »
