The Field this week devotes it's leading
article to contrasting British and American
race riding, and for the first time in its

Field says: There was a time when En-
glishmen thought themselves supreme in
everything concerning the horse, but that
idea is being very surely and not particu-
larly knocked on the head, for American
horses have won some of our best races,
and now Sloan comes among us to show our
to theirs The Field charaeterizes as ali
surd and unsportsmanlike the published
suggestion that owners should boycott
Sloan, as his victories are won by a trick,
and asks what would Englshmen have said
if similar treatment had been melted out to
English jockeys on American race courses.
In conclusion the Field remarks: mot a
single word was ever breathed about an un-
fairness in Sloan's riding, and he is entitled
to full praise for his victories. 1t would be
equally unjust and ungenerous to deny him
full credit for what he has accomplished,
for it is not sportsmanlike to attempt to
explain away defeat

down, and throughout the game he seldom
failed to gain. The Indians made their only
