CHAPTER ".

The sun shone brightly on the race
course at Benning. From the top of the
erandstand the little red and white flags
futtercd gracefully in the gentle breeze.
The neatly kept lawn in front, where the
stceplechasc course was laid out. fairly
glistened i'm the sunshine The well-rolled
track was as clean and level as the beach
at Atlantic City.
1t was an anxious day for Ryder. Often
before he had ridden in steeplechases, but
it had then been for sports sake. and not
for life and fortune, as now. When an
undergraduate at Oxford he had won a
Foiut-to-Point. and, after his graduation,
he had been given a mount al the Grand
National. only 20 fan ANONYMOUSLY at
Bcecher's Brook. Now he felt differently
toward racing and race meetings It was
a business with him, and like every bust
ness or occupation in which a man is
engaged it absorbed his every thought
and action. He no longer picked up the
evening paper with the same feeling that
he used 10 have Now, as he ran l.is
eyes over the columns. il was for the
racing columns only that he looked His
brain was fun of weights, penalties, and
allowances. He could think of nothing
but the stud-book. past performances, and
saw racing colors and moving horses in
his dreams. Often he woke to find him
self sitting up in bed with his hands out
stretched as IL TO steady a horse over the
jumps. 1t was impossible for him to really
sleep cOnsecutvely for SIX hours. He be-
gan 10 lose weight: but Fanshawe said
it was a good thing, because. before. ne

There had been q week of racing, and
the newly formed partnership, which
styled itself The FauquieT Stables, had
met with fair success. Two horses had
been started in a handicap steeplechase
on the third day of the meeting They
had come in second and fourth, respec-
