NEAR THE 00,000 MARK Exterminator Fast Climbing to Charmed Circle Now on Threshold of Thoroughbred Hall of Fame. W. S. Kilmers Exterminator, twice winner of the Saratoga Cup, in addition to many other notable turf triumphs, is fast approaching the charmed circle of the winners of 00,000 or more. He has now to his credit the sum of 4,5-19, the result of four years of successful campaigning over the different tracks of this country and Canada. With many valuable stake engagements during the fall meetings in New York, Maryland and Kentucky and racing in the form he displayed in establishing a new American track record of 2:50 for one mile and three-quarters in winning the Saratoga Cup, it is more than likely that Exterminator will soon pass the coveted 00,000 mark. Exterminator justly holds high rank among the best horses of the present day. In him are found the qualities of a truly great horse. Speedy, a capital weight carrier and a stayer of the old-fush-ioned kind able to run equally as well over a heavy or fast track, Exterminator is well entitled to enter the hall of thoroughbred fame. His record to date is as follows: Year. Age. Sts. 1st. 2d. 3d. Unp. Won. 1917 2 4 2 0 0 2 $ 1,350 1918 3 15 7 4 3 1 30,147 1919 4 21 9 0 3 3 20,402 1920 5 12 0 3 2 1 30,050 Total 52 21 13 8 7 4,549 To date.
