AMERICAN RACING RECORDS TO DATE With half of the. racing year gone, four new American, records have been made in 1909 and one equaled. A. .1. Small and Donau each ran three and a half furlongs in 40 at Santa Anita, effacing the rtcord of 40 previously to the credit of Carmisa. At the same track Donau ran a half mile in 4G. which took the place of Bessie Mackens 40. made at Dallas, Texas, in 1899. At Louisville Joe Morris ran four and a half furlongs In 52. wiping out the previous record of 53, held by Old England. At La-tonia Moquette ran a mile and a sixteenth in 1:441, equaling the record to the credit of Jtoyal Tourist. The last and most important change was that made by Fltz Herbert, when he ran a mile and five-eighths in 2:45 in winning the Lawrence Realization and supplanted Africanders; previous mark of 2:45.
