BUSINESS Nv RACING.
How the Owners OF some of the Prin
cipal Stables Succeed.

How the Owners OF some of the Prin-
cipal Stables Succeed.
A very remarkable feature in modern
American racing, says an exchange, Is
that owners and patrons of the turf in
general are rapidly arriving at the con-
clusion that it is useless to attempt to
race amateur fashion-that is, for
amusement only. The number of those
who have got together string, put it
in charge of a good trainer and only go
to see 1t themselves on the occasion of
great trial or of racing is dwindlng
to nothing, while on the other hand the
richest of our owners who are so fond
of the game that they are determined
not to give 1t up, attach themselves to
these studs almost as closely as If they
were its stable boys. Nothing could
better prove the essentially of applying
business principles to racing. No mat.
ter how excellent trainer may be, or
how thorough a student of racing the
dilettante master, 1t is almost impossi
bic that they will hG of one mind as to
the proper handling of the corner
stones of stable. The owner that
plays with racing is as often as not
counter in opinion to his trainer, and
the latter has to bow. He has to
choose between two things-risk losing
good berth by insistance, or later on
by an awakening of the boss to the
losses of the stable. If the owner
hands over the management of the
string entirely to the trainer and says
nothing, matters are not so bad, but
there are very few men liberal minded
and sensible enough to do so. If we look
at the great stables of the country we
see that the owners seldom leave them
at all during racing time. Ed. Corrigan
is with his horses day and night the
Dwyers are always on hand Mr.. Bald
win sticks to his carload like leech.
MS for that matter do the IIaggins and
Mr.. Ashe. The amount of money in.
vested in n powerful stable is now so
immense, its expenses so great and its
possibilities so vast that man is fool
to sink money in one without the in
tention of closely experimenting every
detail. This has long been patent to
that legion of small owners, men of
half dozen horses or so, who for
years past have lived upon the turf and
been the only owners who have made
much money at it.
