10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, April 15, 1965 'George Royal' Rated * Canada's Best Horse , Bred by Dark Hawk out of Polly Bashaw, two relatively unknown horses, George Royal nevertheless boasts some proud racing blood. His sire was an offspring. of Alibi, a great British stallion once considered the best in the world. Imported by U.S. movie mogul Louis B. Mayer; Alibi broke the Santa Anita track record for the mile during a workout, pulled up lame and never raced again. George Royal showed promise the first time he 'hit a track, in Vancouver. He soon won al- most everything in sight, includ- ing the 15,000-added British Columbia Derby. There was nothing richer here. Hall and Hammond moved him south to California. He was third in the $145,000 Santa Anita Handicap, behind Hill Rise and Candy Spots. He showed again, in the rich San) Antonio Handicap, beaten by) Gun Bow: and Candy Spots.

George Royal runs like «a Silky Sullivan, with a blazing burst in the stretch that so far in his young racing career has made his owners richer by $156,000. George Royal has had only one winter at the big-money tracks. But already he is con- sidered a top rival to Northern Dancer, who won $580,647 in two years before pulling up lame, as the best-ever Canadian 'race horse.

In his first race against Gun Bow in California, the four-year- old dark bay colt from British Columbia finished half a length behind. In their second en- counter, George Royal was six lengths in front.
