McRann has been able to take his pacers and trotters into the winners circle on more than 800 occa- sions with purses in excess of a million and a half dollars. Ile has been one of the most regular and consistent drivers at WFR since the Dundas street east facility open- ed for the first time under the lights racing in the province of Ontario. About 95 percent 'of the horses Mcltann has raced over the years %vete raised by himself. Ile says, -You get a little more kick out of rac- ing a horse you have raised from a Royals win fourth in row A three run home run by third ',aseman Will Lamb in the bottom of the sixth inning. Thursday, provided the winning margin as the Exeter Royals came from behind to defeat 11- .l( 1'1(HI 7-f). The win enabled the Royals to ex- tend thein current winning streak to four games and run their season record to eight and one. Ilderton took an early lead in the se- cond inning off Royal starting pitcher Dave Prout as J. Reed scored. The Royals scored twice in the third on two hits and two errors. Ilderton took the lead in the top of the fourth by plating two runs only to have Ex- eter tie it in the bottom of the fourth. Ilderton again took the lead in the fifth by scoring twice. however, the Royals put the game away in the bot- tom of the inning by scoring tour times on three hits and three walks highlighted by Lamb's home run. 1I- derton managed a run in the seventh inning but could come no closer. Royal starter Dave Prost went four innings giving up three runs and four hits. Ile struck out three and walked one while hitting one batter. Brian I lodgins picked up the win in relief as he gave up three runs and three hits. Royals next action will be Thursday at the Rec Centre as they host the Lucan White Sox.

I like the homebred ones, either from a homebred sire or by a sire you have raised and raced -, 01 the fey purchases he did make. the best by tar was in 1971 when he bought trotter Dart ('amp from Dr. Lawrence Ilaryett of London for $500 as a seven months old colt. Dart ('arnp chalked up his lastest mite of 1.59 at Detroit as a seven year- old and during his illustrious career won 70 races and purses of $479,954. Ile was twice named Canadian aged trotter of the year. The popular trotter also set other track records. Ile went in 2.01.1 at the since abandoned Garden ('ity track in St. Catherrnes, hit 2.00.2 at Mohawk and tied the Greenwood mark of 2.00.1. McRann has a three-year old trot- ting colt eligible for Ontario Sire Stakes races this summer. Ile is Bay Camp by Palm Bay out of Deaconess which is a full sister to Dart Camp. Another of McHann's favourites is Ellie Dale who is still racing at Wind- sor Raceway and has compiled earn- ings of $81,000 from :14 victories. Ellie Dale is a Championdale half-sister to Smokey Fella. The latter mare earn- ed more than $184.000 and time trial- ed in Lexington, Kentucky in 1.57.2. Of the 40 horses in the McRann stables at the moment, 10 are at the London track, five at Windsor Raceway and the balance at the farm, edeivit etuemeti Pledgee -4, ltd. 2 Parkside Ave. Zurich, Ontario Phone 236-4305 south of Clandeboye. McRann's strategy for a winning percentage is very simple. Ile says, - 1 like to sit back and relax. The main thing is to stay calm and not make mistakes. Sometimes that can be the difference between winning and los- ing. I try to drive the same %%ay. whether it's for a purse of $1,000 or for $50.000.
