The photo on page 191 shows Lion Charge (Super Charge-Leo’s Queen Bee, Leo) after winning the 1969 Louisiana Breeders Futurity. The gelding was ridden by Lane P. Suire for owner C.T. Fuller and trainer Lee Young.
Bred by Peltier Harvey Jr., Lion Charge is sired by 1953 Champion Super Charge and out of 2-time winner Leo’s Queen Bee. He is also a half- brother to stakes winner Lion Queen, who set a New Track Record for 330 yards in 1974.
Lion Charge began his career on the track as
a two year old and raced until he was eight years old. During that time, he made an impressive 60 starts with 22 victories, 11 seconds, and 9 thirds.
In addition to the Louisiana Breeders Futurity, he also won the 1970 Louisiana Breeders Derby, 1971 Evangeline Downs Championship #1 2nd Division (where he set a New Track Record for 300 yards), 1972 Evangeline Downs Championship #2 1st Di- vision, 1973 Evangeline Downs Championship #3 2nd Division.
