SUCCESS FOR AMERICANS

The French racing year which ended Deem

features Of the nine months racing season in

RanscD stands far above all his English and
French rivals, and that an American trainer
IIeigh) has accomplished the unprecedented feat
Of preparing more than twice the number OF
winning horses that has been produced by any
OF his competitors. American owners also put
IN a more promising record than hitherto, for of
the eleven proprietors Of racing stables who in
the last season have won more than $4,000
sn prizes, an American-William K. Vanderbilt
--comes sixth on the list with $4,000, and of
the ten owners of steeplechase stables who have
won over $4,000 in prizes, another American
Frank Gardner-comes second on the list with
$4,000.
The public interest in horse racing is steadily
Increasing in France, and the number of entries
at }he racecourses around Paris for the season
gust closed was Q $50 276 and the money staked
Ct the part-mutuel in bets was SAT OBS 476-
The highest figure ever registered. The amount
Of prize money for fat racing given by the
Jockey Club Association in the season was

popular. and is not likely TO become so, only
$4,000 having been given in prizes in the
reason.
Horse racing is terribly costly luxury for the
pwners. Large fortunes are swallowed up in
the innumerable expenses incurred by keeping
APP e good racing stable. Edmond Blanc heads
lhe list OF the owners of racehorses with net
prizes won by horses running under his famil-
Ear and popular orange colors in fat races
amounting TO S225,J00, which is the largest
amount ever won in prizes in France by any
