For the record, let me
state that Bill Sharen may be the greatest horse ever developed at Fredericton Raceway.
The
chestnut stallion was foaled at Samuel J. Boyle’s Fredericton farm,
over one hundred years ago on September 1, 1915. He was undefeated in
Fredericton as a four and five-year-old and then sold to Tommy Murphy of
Poughkeepsie, NY for $25,000, a record price for a Canadian
standardbred horse.
During
the course of his record-setting five-year-old season in 1920, Bill
Sharen had attracted the attention of Murphy after winning the
Free-For-All at Fredericton.
The
sale was announced by telegram and published in the New York Times on
November 16, 1920. It was said “the horse is a rich chestnut in color,
stands fifteen hands high and has weighed 1,500 pounds” and “...the
holder of records on nearly every track on which he raced” in the
Maritimes and Maine.
On
August 17, 1922 at Belmont Driving Park in Philadelphia, Bill Sharen
became the first Canadian-bred horse to trot better than 2:05 when he
won consecutive heats in the $2,500 Bulls Head Stake in 2:05 ¼ -2:04 ¼ -
2:06 ¼ against world class trotters. He also became the first
Maritime-bred to trot or pace a mile better than 2:05 on any North
American track and had earnings of $7,647.75.
As
his 1922 season progressed, he became known for his ability to win
triple heats, a feat he accomplished three times during the last two
weeks of August.
Bill
Sharen raced for seven seasons and established two Canadian records and
more than a dozen track records. His legendary career ended back in
the Maritimes and when he returned to Fredericton in September 1928. It
was written that he was “in the midst of the greatest comebacks the
Down East has ever known.”
But
his career ended suddenly at Island Park in Woodstock later that year
when he dropped dead after the second heat of his final start. He was
buried in the centerfield of the track which is now underwater after
being flooded by the construction of the Mactaquac dam in 1967.
Bill Sharen was inducted into the Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame in 2000.
When I first came up
with the concept of writing a blog about the most successful horses Fredericton
Raceway ever produced, I wondered if I would be able to determine who the
greatest Fredericton horse of all time was.
I soon realized that this would be an impossible task. Can you really compare horses from one era to
another?
I decided that I would focus
on the modern era and I categorized horses based on lifetime records, race
times, money earnings and career wins to see if it made the task of determining
the best any less difficult.
It is important to note
that all of the horses were stabled, broke and trained at Fredericton Raceway at the beginning of their careers. Some were bred in the Fredericton area and
others were purchased at yearling sales in Atlantic Canada and throughout North
America.
Since there is no one
source to comprise this very specific criteria of horses developed in
Fredericton, I relied mostly on my own recollections and the great memories of
horse people in Fredericton.
The following is a
tribute to the talent of the trainers in Fredericton so here is a look at some
of the best of the modern era.

It should be noted that
Jaguar Knight and Spudland Sierra established new standards when they took
their lifetime records. Jaguar Knight
paced the Meadowlands in 1:51.2 for Mike Stevenson in May 1994 and became the
fastest Maritime-bred horse of all time and the second fastest Canadian-bred. He held the Maritime-bred distinction for
almost eight years until February 2002 when Dakota Express paced the
Meadowlands in 1:51.1. Spudland Sierra’s
win at Woodbine in 1:52.1 for Jody Jamieson in July 2004 was the fastest ever by a New
Brunswick-bred mare and second only to Dexter’s Wine (1:52) by a Maritime-bred
mare at the time.

All Star Dragon is not
only the fastest horse ever developed in Fredericton but also the fastest ever
over a half-mile track. If I had
included individual races by each horse, All Star Dragon would have been on each
list nine more times. He has won in 1:53.1 (twice), 1:54.1, 1:54.2,
1:54.3 and 1:55 two times each, all at Yonkers or Freehold. Igoddago would have been on this list three
more times. He has won in 1:54, 1:54.2,
1:54.4 and 1:55, all in the Maritimes.
He has also won in 1:55.2, 1:55.3, 1:55.4 and 1:56 in the
Maritimes. He won one race at Flamboro
in 1:55.4. Saulsbrook Light has won in
1:54 and 1:54.1.
The fastest trotter on a half-mile track is Money Maven (1:54.1).

A World Record holder who didn’t make any of the above lists
Classic Gene was a son
of Southampton V-Adele Daeres who was purchased by Carol Thornton and Joan
Sowers for $5,200 in 1979 at a yearling sale in Ontario. The horse was broke and trained by Joan’s
husband Philip Sowers and began his racing career as a two-year-old in
Fredericton. He won two races in Saint
John early in his sophomore year, January 1981, and was then sold to U.S.
interests.
Later that year he
established a world record for one and one-quarter miles on a five-eighths mile
track at Liberty Bell Park in Philadelphia when he paced in 2:31.2, lowering
Belle Action’s old record of 2:32, established in 1958. Sowers was quoted as saying, “I knew he could
really go a distance but it’s really something to set a world record.”
The world record is
currently held by Boulder Creek – 2:19.4.
Classic Gene raced
until the age of eleven and ended his career with 19 wins, $80,256 in earnings
and a lifetime record of 1:58.2m.
