w. 3. Sink, who raced at Ascot last
year, is on his way here from San
Francisco, having just returned from
best racing stables In France this year.
He is branching out as an owner and
has a mare named Spa III that is one
of the best jumpers in France.
With this mare Mr. Sink expects to
win the Grand Steeplechase, which is
the prize most sought after in that
country. This stake is worth $4,000
to the winner, and Mr.. Sink thinks that
he might have won it last year had his
mare not stumbled in the last part Of
the race and lost a lot of ground. Some
of the best horses in England are sent
to France every year to run for the
Grand Steeplechase but it is generally
won by the French horses. Mr.. Sink
pronounces them the best jumpers in
the world.
Eugene Leigh has the best stable in
that country" said Mr.. Sink, land

confining his operations to them rather

success has been made with horses
that he has bought out of selling races,
and the selling game is certainly much
different in that country to what we
are accustomed to here at home.
"I was never more surprised in my
life than after had bought horse out
of a selling race last year to have the
owner come around and offer to send
him home to me- When he came up
to me and said that he understood that
1 had claimed his horse, 1 got ready
to duck but instead Of finding any
fault, he asked If l had made any ar
rangements to get the horse home
When 1 said that had not he offered
to send his own man to my training
quarters, which were two or three miles
from the track, and took the proceed

possible.

TRACK NOTES

Dr. Long was heavily played at post
time but fenced poorly and came nearly
unseating his rider and in hard drive
got the place from Flea who prefers
the inner course.
Counterpoise was the medium of one
of the biggest clean-ups of the season.
He was backed from to to to 8,
at post time, and then the money went
streaming in from the paddockites.
Away well he laid in third position un-
til the stretch, where Fuller shook him
up and he won going away.
The Bugaboo is good and fit and
when put where he belongs will win.
Away none too we'll he was shut out at
the quarter pole, then finished fast at
the end.
Requiter came out all decked out in
red, white and blue ribbons even on
his tail The lady bettors put their
checks on this one as he looked too
pretty for anything. In his race he
would have rewarded his many ad-
mirers had not Schoolmate swerved
across him near the finish, which cost
him the show.
Horatius with an even break and any
kind of a well judged ride may have
won. The boy held it out too long
and he was running the fastest at the
end.
Otis on Schoolmate put up a bungling
finish and when grabbed for his whip
he allowed the horse to swerve at q
critical moment which cost him the
race.
Pasadena showed a lot of speed and
was only started to assist his stable
companion oxford. Pasadena will
about win the next time out
Flo Bob wants about one mile as ht
quit badly at the quarter pole wher
the real racing began.
Bissful came to life suddenly. II
her last race she was beaten away of
yesterday with 10 pounds more up. She
won all the way from practically the
same horses that beat her the othel
day.

swerved badly at the paddock gate ana

Throw out bod Anderson's race of
yesterday as she can do better.
Tab Lookaway. When in where he
belongs and especially on a heavy
track, he will earn brackets.
Golden Light was badly ridden or
might have won. Tooman had him
shut out and pocketed repeatedly,
then came with a belated rush.
Heather Honey has had too much
and positively refused to run. The
boy whipped but she would not move.
The finish in the fifth race was 20
close that only the judges were in a
position to separate them.
With an even break Princess Tulane
and Wm Wright would have made
things interesting for the winners.
Away badly they made up a world OF
ground and were all punched at the fin
ish with the leaders.
Felipe Lugo was badly pocketed and
cut off at the eighth pole or woul
have been third. This one is a good
future prospect.

Most of the horses are trained through
sand almost knee deep and galloped
three or four miles at one time. Another
reason l think for Leigh's s., cess is
that he never trains the horses that he
gets from the Frenchmen. They are
all over-trained, and Leigh simply lets
up on them, and then takes them out
to win races with.
Another feature to the selling race
game that was new to me is that you
can claim a mans horse out of a race
before the start, but in such an event.
you cannot run the horse in your own
colors, but are obliged to scratch him.
This is very frequently done.
zone thing that is also a revelation
to an American is the starting. The
starters have the jockeys under the
most perfect control imaginable. They
never even raise their voices to them,
and even the assistant starters go to
the post with silk hats and frock-coats
on. l never saw three horses left at
the post all last season, and 1 think
their starting must be the best in the
world.
Americans have often said that this
could not be done with our American
Jockeys, but 1 always notice that over
there they behave just as we'll as any
of the other boys.
"There is a great deal of jealousy OF
Americans, and the trainers, who are
mostly EngliShmen, are very clannlsh.
Our own people do not stick together
at all, but it is a common occurrence
to hear every newcomer to these parts,
who is an American, knocked by his
own countrymen.
"I like the country and the racing
very much, and while I know that L
can bring some of the French jumpers
to this country and win races, 1 pre-
fer to race on the other side for another
year.
after that, I think 1t very probable
that l shall bring some horses over
here. Mr.. Daingerfeld, assistant sec
retary Of the Eastern Jockey club, told
me while I was in New York that there
would be over 100000 in added money
for jumpers around New York this
year. That looks pretty good, when
on considers that altogether there are
less than one hundred jumpers in train
ing to race for the good stakes that
are offered"
After having made and lost a for
tune at the race track, Captain Will
liam Carter, 6S years old, died last
Thursday in a furnished room in Brook
lyn. Captain Carter was originally a
stevedore and had about $4,000 when he
began betting on the horses. In a
few years he had amassed a small for
tune, and he then bought several fast
horses. When the building of Aqueduct
race track was proposed, Captain Car
ter was one of the most liberal con-
tributors. For this race was named
after him, which has been known ever
since as the Carter handicap

Canadian Hippo
drOne Show.

The last attraction that has been Sc
cured and what will doubtless be the
creates one at the Central Maine
ialr outside the southern ex-
hibit will be a great hippodrome
company. The company, WHICH
carries % horses and large
NUMBER of men, is one Of the great
things that is being shown at the diff
ferent fairs in the United States. 1t
consists of a display of trained horses,
4 Roman chariot race, q Roman stand
ing race and a great running race. The
exhibition is one of the standing ones
at the famous Brockton fair and is con.
sidered the great event of the fair.
1t is given every day on the track and
always arouscs the audience to the
highest pitch of enthusiasm. The
standing race is made by two drivers
each standing on two horses and is
year. being made in 52h seconds and it
rarely goes above one minute for the
half mile. They go a full half mile,
scoring for the word and then finishing
under the wire The horses in both
teams are very evenly matched and
sometimes one wins and sometimes the
other, as it all depends on how the
horses are feeling.
The chariot race is made the same
way. there being two chariots, having
four horses harnessed to each and go
ing the full half mile and the time
made is usually about the same as in
the standing race.
The running race has several
horses in it and as every one is ridden
by a gayly dressed jockey and all are
first class horses the race is beauty.
In addition to the races the final
feature and what to many is the great
est is an exhibition OF animal intel
ligence by one horse. His trainer
brings the horse down in front of the
grand stand without single bit Of
harness on him and for his part the
trainer does not even carry a whip. He
He tells the horse in an ordinary tone
OF voice to do various things and he
does them. Laying down and pre-
tending to be sick. acting as valet to
his master, brushing his clothes and
helping him on with his overcoat and
then doing the usual tricks of telling
time by a watch and picking out var
ious colors and things of that kind.
The whole exhibition is run off be-
tween the heats and as a result of
it there is no waiting and something
is moving on the track all the time.
