| The american Horse TN England.
The result of the racing in England SO far
the present season, and especially the past
week, is full of encouragement to the Ameri
can breeder of thoroughbred horses, and to
much greater degree discouraging to the
English breeder, most of the important
events having been captured by horses bred
outside OF the favored isle, the Amer
lean victories predominatlng, though
unfortunately for local pride, no one OF the
latter victories were gained under American
| colors.
| Thus we have seen the Lincoln handicap
won by the French horse Poulet, the Liver
pool Grand national by the Irish horse Seaman.
the Liverpool Spring cup by the American
| horse Wallenstein, the fOur-year-old New
| market Biennial and the great Metropolitan
| by the half American horse Fiddler. The city
and suburban handicap by the Ameri-
can horse Passaic. and the Tally-Ho Steeple-
chase for bona fde hunters by the American.

was third for the Esher stakes, and another
American.bred colt, Mr.. R. Ten Broeck's
Meteor, by Alarm, out of Rosaline, ran dead
heat with Lord Rossmore's Refer, for third
place for the Welter Handicap.
And these American victories have been
won outside the two great American
whose brilliant victories last season with
Iroquois and Foxhall, as their respective rep
resentatives, created such furore and has re.
suited In attracting great attention to the
American thoroughbred. None OF Mr.. Keen's
horses have yet appeared in public and only
two Of Mr.. Lorillard's this season, neither
performing well, all other nominations for
the different events having been scratched.
It is significant circumstance, and one
that must be somewhat annoying TO P. Lorl-
lard, that both Passaic and Wallenstein are
cast outs from his stable. Both were sold to
Charley Archer, Passaic, according to BeLPs
Life, for GOO. Archer in turn sold him to
Mr.. A. Cooper for price not named for
whom he won the Cambridgeshire plate at
sandown park and ran unplaced for
the First Welter Handicap at the
Newmarket secoad October meeting last sea-
son. He was then sold to Lord Rossmore for
500 guineas, for whom he won the Haugh.
mond Plate at the Shrewsbury meeting, and
was bought in for $50 guineas, after which
he was beaten for the Welter Handicap and
the Mile, Selling Stakes at the November
meeting. Up to the race as above Passaic did
not run this year.
Passaic was bred the late Il. ?. McGrath,

time Passaic was described in the New
York Sportsman as q bay colt, stand

hind leg and strip; in other words, he was
MAJ ked very much the same as his sire. He
arrived safely, and as two-year- old in 1880
first ran at the Epson spring meeting, when
he was unplaeed for the Hyde Park Plate, as
he was also for the Rous Plate at the Dencas-
ter September meeting, they being the only
races In which Passaic appeared as a two-year
old. Last year as three-year old Passaic was
first seen in the 1900 Guineas, for which he
and Iroquois both started at so to l, but for
which the latter was second, while the former
was unplaced. Passalc was next seen at Ascot,
where he was beaten by length and half,
for the Ascot Derby by Count Lagrange's
Maskelyne. at GoOdwood the same fate at

stakes aud the Racing stakes. Passaic was
not again seen until the last week in Septem-

for the Newmarket October handicap. AL

before stated, to Charles Archer for e200
From all descriptions of the City and
Suburban, it appears to have been won under
most sensational circumstances, and with the
greatest ease. 1t was only quite recently that
he was mentioned as probable starter. He
was trained in a little, quiet stable at Lewes,
in Sussex, and but few persons, If any, imag-
ined that the cast Off horse from an American
stable would blossom into a position OF
much importance in this or other of his en-
gagements. His victory was secured in most
gallant fashion. He was shut in at Tatten-
ham Corner, but when well into the straight
he ran through the fed and won as stated by
two lengths, the same distance separating
Master Waller and Scooel. Michel was fourth,
followed by Wallenstein, that was pulled up
by Archer when his winning was found to be
an impossibility. The first mention of him

was backed by his owner to win 10000, the

quotations were 25 to against him. A rather

Fiddler, winner of the great metropolitan
handicap, is bay, years old, by the Ameri-
can horse Preakness, son of Lexington, sent
to England in 1875 by Mr.. NJ. II. Sanford,

account of his viciousness. Fiddler was
bred by the Duke of Hamilton. His dam was
Music by Stockwell. He started four times
as 2-year old and won nothing. At he
started six times, winning three. The ease
with which he won his two races this year, as
mentioned above, stamps him as horse of
great merit, and gives rise to regret for the
untimely death of his American sire.
