Commack History:
Carll Burr was training horses under the guidance of his father Smith Burr and producing some fine results. Two of his early trotters, both sired by Washing-ton, Rose of Washington and Lady Woodruff were sold for an unheard of $3,000 each.
The Burr's were becoming even more renowned for their handling of quality horses and now the pressure was on Carll to start an official horse training school to handle the growing demand for Burr horses.
In the world of race horses Carll Burr was by now considered a leader in breeding and training, and his customers were some of America's richest and most powerful men. Among those who did business with him were, August Belmont, Wm. H. Vanderbilt, H. O. Havemeyer, J. P. Morgan, Wm. C. Whitney, and others. Many of these people were often said to be guests at the Burr house when they came out to visit, or do business here.
Wm. H. Vanderbilt purchased a race horse named Maud S. He took her to Carll Burr who worked with her. She had a bad shoulder and he treated it for the winter. Burr found her easy to drive and often having the speed of a freight train. Maud S. would go on to set a new record in Ohio that was said by Carll Burr Jr. to be the direct result of her careful attention while under the care of the Burr's.
