Saturday dawned bright, clear and warm, and South Carolina, on the third year of its running, had ideal weather for the ^Carolina Cup race which ushered in our 1982 Hurtt racing season. Remembering the rains of the race days in 1980 and 1931, there was great rejoicing in Camden, Fully an hour before the time aet for tho first race a large crowd had collected, and by half past two there was a double line of automobiles along the parking spaces. The whole scene was summery and tho light clothes, the uncovored horses, the flagged fences, everything so familiar and yet so strange, created a feeling, of unreality in those who had come, as 1 had from New York, over night from the * North where blizuStds, gales and chill spring winds made even getting into the mood for a raice meeting difficult. Here was, a different wprld, florwers in bloom, welcome sun beating down on hot sanda. It would not havo seemed too much had I looked up and found a huge glass roof instead of the open sky. But, of course, that's part of Carolina's charm and the reason why year by year more and more people for whom the horse is king come here and enjoy their hunting and polo uninterrupted by frost and snow. Horse races were being run on the flat Springdale course just outside Camden as far back as 1820. But it was not until recent 'years that the happy inspiration of building timber and brush coursos and holding modem Hunt race meetings took form and substance through the energy and leadership of Mr. Harry 1). Kirkover and Mr. Ernest Woodward. The first Carolina Cup race, three miles over timber, for a superb old English trophy dedicated to Mr. Thomas Hitchcock, was run in March, 1030. From the first meeting the race was a success, and by its second year it had become the important opening race of the season. And the success of this year's event, on March 26, further strengthens that interest. ' , Conditions at Camden are naturally favorable for the training of race horses. The sandy soil makes good footing and dries out very quickly titer a rain. Suoh woods as there re, are open enough to make the laying of drag lines easy. There is hardly a "metal" road in the place, dumps, with labor at $9.00 a week and cedar posts at six or seven cents apiece, can be built even in these times, but just where a trainer is going to find any hills for the development of horses for the Northern meetings is rather an open question. One of the first things everyone wants to know in these days of controversy is, "Has the timber course Aiken jumps?" Springdale has the naked timber type of jumps but all eighteen of them are eighty to a hundred feet wide and four feet high with the rails set closely enough together to mnke them pretty solid looking. They are all fairly placed a#d up to now havo caused very few falls. The brush jumps, about four feet six inches high, are movable so that the flat course may be cleared, and they are built in sections with, long "feet" ~o!\~tihe' landing side to make them secure. It would be juat too bad if one of these ever turned oyer. It would throw a horse fight into kingdom come, but as it would take an elephant to accomplish tMf] act it has never happened end probably, never will unless they take tp racing elephants * * *. ?t. , All in all, Camden is an unusual meeting. The courses are well -built, the card was well filled and the man- 1 agement couldn't have been better. It hasn't. , quite the informal "backwoods" charm of some of the Mary1 Q n H o r? /] m a * -- o-?- V* superlative impnessiveness of the big tracks, but the time of the year, the climate, and the country surrounding Springdale, as well as the course itself, create for it an individuality alT :ts own. Like the first robin, the first strawberry and the first shad, the Camden races have and will al.vfiiy8~hav? the subtle excitement of returning spring * * *.
