NOBLEST ROMAN OF THEM ALL EXTERMINATOR Here is an excellent likeness of one of the greatest thoroughbreds in American turf history, the wonderful Exterminator. This gallant hero of the racecourse has started in eighty-one races, of which he won forty-three, and is the only other American horse besides Man o War to win in excess of 00,000. Today at Latonia Exterminator is asked to carry 140 pounds, the highest on record in Kentucky, in the Independence Handicap, and there will be thousands and thousands of racing enthusiasts there to cheer the old warrior none the less lustily in defeat than they will if he is triumphant.
