ABOUT AMERICAN INVASION
What Yankee Thoroughbreds Have
Done On English Turf.
HISTORY OF THE RACE TRACK
Diomed, the Derby winner of 1TsOi
the .sFatber of the American
Turf"-RIchard e
Broeck's work.

The formidable squad of American
horses now preparing for an onslaught
on the big events of the English turn
has attracted the attention of the critics
abroad and they are busy raking up the
doinEs of the Yankee thoroughbred for
the last half century. 1t appears that
many victories claimed for America are
not regarded so by the English, as, for
instance, the win of orby in the Derby
two years ago and Vo1odyovskt, another
winner of the EPSON classic.
A number Of similar cases are pointed
out, and these, with a thorough synopsis
of what American horses have done In
England, are summed up as follows by
Donald o. r. Adams in the Sportsman:
at was in 1880 that sir Charles Bun
bury's horse Diomed gained immortal
fame by winning the first Derby on Ep-
som Downs, and strangely enough it was
Diomed who was destined to be the first
English thoroughbred horse OF note to be
exported to America. He was bred by his
owner, being by Florizel out of Pastor
elias dam. Making his first appearance
on a race course as a S-yesr-old, he con-
tinued running until 1884, when he rsr
his last race at Guildford, then a favorite
race meeting. Diomed gained further
celebrity at the stud in England, but fol
some unknown reason Sir Charles dis
posed OF his famous horse in 1898 for the
sum of SO g%uineas.
1T was from hat year that the history
OF the American turf dates. Although
Doomed was then 20 years of age, he was
again sold shortly after landing for 1000
g%ulneas. He proved to be a wonderful
bargain for the Americans, always a pro
life sire. and living to a very old age
he made his name everlasting as the
father of the American turf One Of
his many good sons was Lexington, who
in a match against time in Kentucky rar

PURELY VEGETABLE
GREATEST Of ALLTONICS

There is scarcely any one, no matter how vigorous and healthy,
who does not need a tonic at this particular season. With the first sign
OF spnng-ime almost every one begins to feel bad. Some have no
particular aihment but are debiltated, rundown, weak, and their entire
system is in a state of disorder. Little physical irregularities upset the
perfect working of the blood, the appetite fails, digestion is poor, the
energies are depressed, and other unpleasant symptoms give warning
that the physical machinery is out of gear and needs some healthfuL
stimulating assistance 10 build it up to normal and perhaps ward of

some serious sickness or ailment.
This disturbed and diSor-
dered condition of health is the
result Of impure accumulations
in the system due to an inactive
winter life. The bodily waste and
refuse matter is not properly eX-
PEELED in cold weather, because
those members whose duty il is
TO perform this work of drainage
do not receive sufficient StimuIa-
ton from outdoor bodily exercise;
they therefore become dull and
sluggish in their action; nor is
the skin as active in eliminating
impurities in cold weather.
These Winter accumulations
pollute the blood and destroy its
rich, red corpuScleS to such an
extent that when Spring comes,
and everything takes on new life,
the circulation is so weakened
that it is unable to supply the
increased demands of the system,
and we suffer in consequence.
The heaIthful, vegetable in

combining and preparing them so
that they build up and strengthen

First Raid ON England,

First Raid ON England,
Lexington was the property Of Richard
Ten Breeck, who was the first American
to invade our shores with a string OF
race horses. He first came over from the
states In 1856, bringing his Yankee trainer
and jockey, But 1t was not until the fol-
lowing year that Dame Fortune favored
his sporting enterprise. Then, however,
he created q typical American sensation
with Prioress, who ran a desperate dead
heat between three for the Cesarewitch
Of 1887. Prioress started at 10 to l and
could have won outright had it not been
for her Yankee jockey, who was caught
mapping. However. in the decider Ford
ham was put up and managed to land the
stars and stripes by a length and q half
from Ell Hskim, third place going TO
Queen Bess, who was let off with four
stone ten pounds. Prioress again ran q
dead heath the next Cesarewitch stakes,
this time with Brewer for second place.
After another ~dingdong finish the dead
heaters were only beaten a head by the
winner, Rocket. The American bred mare
had previously won the great Yorkshire
Handicap, which incurred q seven-pound
penalty in the Newmarket race; other
wise she would in all probability have
won her second Cesarewitch, adding fur.
ther to her record,
although bred in the states, prloress
was a daughter of an English Derby win.
ner, her sire being Sovereign, a son of the
famous mare, Fleur de Lis. The ice once
broken, many other successes fell tc
the Ten Brock stable, bly, those
gained by Starke, who landed the Good
wood stakes and Bentinck Memorial In
1858, with a great hid in the Goodwood
cup of 1854. In the same year Optimist
was victorious in the Ascot stakes, Their
added further to his reputation in 1885,
by winning the Brighton stakes. Another
good horse in the same ownership at thai
period was Paris, who ran second to Gen.

In the meantime Umpire won sixteen
races. He was the first American bred
animal to run in the English Derby. The
year was Thormanby's-1S60. to be exact;
but he could only run sixth to the lion
hearted son of Alice Hawthorne. After
the Ten Brock invasion we had several
years lapse; in fact. it was not until 1877
that the Yankees again attempted to win
our Blue Riband. That year Mr.. M. Sand
ford's Brown Prince, a son CT Lexington,
came acroes the Atlantic and managed to
defeat all but Chsmamt for the 1000
gulneas, but failed to get a place in siIvio's
Derby. Brown Prince, who became a
roarer, served many years at the stud in
Ireland, where he got KiIsallaShan. who
won the Goodwood cup by six lengths in
1894.
Parole came across the herring pond
with a good reputation In 1879. Then,
under the care of Jacob Pincus, he won
the City and Suburban. a race which after
ward fell to the lot OF two other American
bred animals, whose names by a comet
dence also commenced with a "P.' They
were Passalc 1SSs) and Pharisee usOSl.
Parole returned to the land of his birth
In 1889, having gained many good races ON
THE side. In America he continued run
ming until he was IL years of age, and 1t
is worth mention here that the old gelding
lived to reach the age OF So
''Then came the Iroaueis-F oxhAll decade,
the greatest in the Anglo-Amer1can turf
history. Mr.. Pierre Lorillard. the owner
OF Parole. made his first attack on our
classics with the U. 6. A. nomination
Boreas, who ran unplaesd in Bend or's
memorable Derby. But he had not long
to wait before he attained the great ambi-
ton OF his racing career, as in 1881 Troquois
made his name famous throughout the rae
ing world by winr ing the Derby on the
historical EPSON Downs. IroauoiE was bred

After the Derby Again.
LAS a 4-yesr-old oxh won the Ascot
gold cup of 1892, beating FSugh a Ballagh.
Here is an instance OF the error of naming
race horses after other equine celebrities,
as above It will be noticed that the
gTandsire Of ~Iroauois was named Faugh
q Ballagh, who won the st. Leger and
Cesarewitch for Mr.. Irwin as far back as
1886. After his achievement with Iroquois
